He must have really wanted to leave to take that turd of a job. I disagree about Villa. They’ve got a name and a following and a bit of money. A Brummie Souness and Smith combination would transform them. SG’s managerial record is not a good one. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevermind 159 Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 (edited) I was thinking about Gerrard's time with us when the news broke he'd been sacked. One of things that stuck out to me when comparing our current manager with him, is that opposition players in europe in their post match pressers would always comment on how Rangers wouldn't let them breathe. Relentless, dogged etc. Compare that to the hands in pockets style of play GVB has us playing is soul destroying. Shoulda known he'd fuck up after insisting on being called the boss and not Gaffer.

They’ve chewed through managers in that time ruining every single managers career, that’s 10 managers over 12 seasons. It’s a poisoned chalice for sure. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7 6,172 Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 The chalice is poisoned but the right necromancer could detoxify it. See the Souness/Smith reference above. Who the right men for Villa would be, I don’t know. @Rousseauis suggesting Postecoglou as he always does. This time, he could be right. But would Villa run the risk of another big fish from a tiny puddle? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
