I’d agree with all of that apart from rehiring José.
Would also put Tuchel in the no list.
He’s not making a full year. I don’t think there aim was 2 years Champions League. Which we 100 percent will not be making with him in charge for the season.
Yeah. Finishing 3rd with Bayern of all teams is definitely a red flag against him.
Why is Allegri on the No list?
is that a serious question?
Yes, he has always been highly rated and has been labled a master tactition so im not sure why he would be on anyones no list
Given Bayern and Chelsea seem to be doing just fine with Championship-level managers, I don't think we need to set a particularly high bar for whoever the next person is frankly. Seems pretty clear that the other backroom staff have become and will continue to become more important to the success of clubs than actual managers. Probably better off just getting somebody who just does what he's asked.
It could be mainly because of his defensive style. The club clearly wants a more attacking attractive style. To be honest, if it we were to go with Allegri, we'd be better off getting Jose...
It might be worth it just to annoy the Kloppites
The Inter guy seems like he knows what he’s doing.
yeah people are too hung up on “big names” or else they’ll keep hanging onto ETH.
truth is plenty of mangers who can do a decent job and very easily cement us in the top four. We don’t really need a master tactician who can outclass Pep.
It’s imperative to become a stable side that finishes top four at least the next 2-3 seasons.
I would like to propose Marco Rose of RB Leipzig. Never gets a mention but has a decent record over the last 10 years.
What happened at Dortmund? I’m not taking warning signs lightly no more.
Finishing second behind Bayern was hardly a disaster. I think Dortmund had unrealistic expectations. They haven’t gone any higher since.
Who would be your choice?
Nice use of words but they literally lost on goal difference the season after. He’s finish behind Bayern was as successful as Ole’s 2nd finish behind City.
As far as I’m concerned he failed and the manager after him brought the team to greater heights.
I’ve always liked him as a manager but let’s try make sure we look for the best we can get or a calculated risk. At 48 I’m not sure if he’s mentally ready for this job after failing at Dortmund, his tactics didn’t go down well there, he couldn’t implement a style although he did have big injures.
Sound familiar though.
The year after they increased their points total by 2 points a small improvement( basically 1 result). Bayern, clearly on the decline, totalled 6 points less than the year before. I thought Rose was unfortunate to lose his job at the time.
His record at Leipzip suggests he’s an excellent manager. I’d definitely have him ahead of a lot of the names linked with Utd at the moment.
Emery would be ok.
MU is a challenging job with expectations that are higher than the quality of the squad. No manager will instantly turn us into title challengers, but Emery is a proven PL manager.
I puked a bit in my mouth.
Emery is a great manager, but would he leave Villa right now? Can’t see it. The next manager has a big job on his hands. Ten Hag has signed a lot of poor players on big contracts. A proven premier league manager who can motivate and get the best out of average players is probably the smart approach
I'd bring Eddie provided that none of his family come along
Luckily we have Ashworth who absolutely would veto it
A bad feeling but if I was a betting man.....it's going to be Southgate!!!!
If he was an ever labeled a master tactician it would have been briefly and a long time ago. He has been a good manager in the past, and that’s about as far as it goes.
Ffs it's not going to be Southgate.
It might very well be, and I would cancel my tv subscription immediately. For my sanity.
McKenna.
Will be someone who can understand the job and the club.
Has shown with Ipswich that he can play attacking football and doesn't require the best part of a billion to be blown to do it.
Let him steady the ship on a two year contract and then aim for someone better if the expectations then increase.

In the interim it’ll be RVN ….he’ll have full support
Which most likely ends up in another Ole disaster. I hope we go for a top notch manager as soon as we can.
“Interim”
Of course he would. Nobody is going to stay at Aston Villa when the opportunity to manage United arises.
It's fan's thinking like that which is why we have so many accepting mediocrity these days. We are still the biggest club around and need to start acting like it again
Right. Who's realistically available right now? ETH days are clearly numbered.
That kind of attitude is hilarious to me. Whats funny is that AV will finish above us this season aswel so "Big club" matters not.
Lose today and I really start to think that the nepobaby fraud can actually get the boot soon
I think this is the end of him. He's survived a lot but it's hard to see what excuses can be made for him.
I mean the red will be an excuse we will hear about repeatedly
