Leicesterpool Posted 21 October 2022 Share Posted 21 October 2022 2 hours ago, tom27111 said: If Villa get Poch or Tuchel, we've fvcked up. Saying that, would they go there (or here)? Nobody wants to touch Wolves, despite their agent links. Tuchel I don't think will go Villa I think he'll want a club within the top six, don't think his next job will be in England he'll probably head back abroad. Poch is a possibility due to the fact he's been linked to Villa for some time and he's quite keen to work in England again. I think that would be a good fit for him and Villa. One thing to mention Martinez who previously was linked to the Villa job was at the KP today, if he was in the country anyway that could be interesting. Of course the world cup is around the corner and he would leave Belgium before major tournament but whose to say he doesn't agree to leave Belgium after the world cup with Villa going for an interim, till he takes over. Though I admit that's unlikely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan LCFC Posted 21 October 2022 Share Posted 21 October 2022 (edited) Beyond a joke if Pochettino ends up at Villa. Surely it can't happen. I wonder if they'll go for Emery. Would be very annoyed if they pulled that off. Got a feeling they're going to get someone I like. Edited 21 October 2022 by Dan LCFC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm worryingly I could see Martinez end up here… Perhaps one reason we didn’t sack our manager is because the one we’ve identified as his replacement isn’t available till after the World Cup? And now we have 4 Belgian players plus our owners have a subsidiary club in Belgium too. It sends a shiver down my spine just thinking about it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowlattsFox Posted 21 October 2022 Share Posted 21 October 2022 So many managers gone or on the brink yet the bottom 2 don't even look in danger Wolves struggling to recruit, out of work managers keen to wait until after the world cup it seems.

fox_up_north Posted 21 October 2022 Share Posted 21 October 2022 Could it be that we're out the bottom 3 this weekend? I don't like Rogers and his set up but this chaos in the lower half of the league is good for us. If he can ride it out and get us to 15th/16th with a gap before the world cup then I'm ok with that. My real concern is that he finishes the season in the lower half but that's considered good enough for him to stay next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Rodgers manages to string some results together, maybe even fluke something against Man City, then it makes it more likely that a desperate Leeds, Villa or Everton swoop for him. And he'll do them good for the first two seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuchsntf Posted 21 October 2022 Share Posted 21 October 2022 Maybe there lies the problem Thais & Shrieks have had their fingers burnt... They have gone 2-3 times for the obvious...but it didn't work... They rather stick( fear) by the devil they know...European owners would realise it's the turn around of change itself, the twist & not stick that help you evolve & develope...& Yes sometimes fall..!!

Everything that is bad about Rodgers ie. the lack of defensive organisation, throwing away leads, conceding from set pieces and stupid post-match comments or applicable to Martinez and then some. He is the actual nightmare for me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
