Jordan Campbell reporting Gio wants the job.

Honestly, I'd be absolutely delighted if he's appointed. The right mix of knowledge of our club and the Scottish game + global pull, I think he would be an exceptional appointment actually.

He can have him at a price.  Aribo is a fantastic player but his end product is questionable.   You wouldnt miss him if he left.

He's getting better all the time, I'd like to keep him for his potential. Though I agree everyone has their price.

Think Borna will be off back to Europe in window.

We should not sell ANY player to Villa unless for silly money.

we need experience here and we need it now. 

 

even if it's DM to end of season if we can't get who we want now. 

 

Dean Smith, Steve Bruce or even warnock would get us over the line. 

Bruce or Warnock? That would be a massive step backwards IMO. Dinosaurs of the game and not what we should be looking to do given what we have in place on and off the field now.

I still think this has been in the offing for a while which might explain a lot about this season. And SG can't moan about the budget as our failure to qualify for the CL has dictated available funds.

I don’t know what to think of GVB. Potential obviously but less pedigree and experience than I would like. At this point in the season though are there any better options out there?

 

Compensation will play a part too. GVB is available so that goes in his favour.

I don't see Tavernier going.

 

I wouldn't be opposed to it, though. It's a big loss, but would allow us to play Patterson.  

I don't know if he'd go or not but I definitely think he's the one Gerrard would want.

I would love it if GVB got the job, I'd like to see Numan as his No2.

If I were Patterson I’d be wanting Liverpool. If it’s between Everton or Villa he might not want to go to the manager who didn’t pick him.

[Bill 13,717]

Lot's of speculation about which players will stay or go. I expect few will follow Gerrard, who is now pulling his tenners from a far fatter wallet, but I do think a guy like GvB is bound want to bring in a few key players he knows he can trust ... and that means some of the current crop will inevitably have to move on elsewhere.
