So which manager will you replace Bruce with Villa4eva who's going to respect your god given right to entertaining football and who you will personally guarantee will take us up this season? Because if he can't do that he will be no better than Bruce and you will have egg on your face.

We haven't got the players because we are stuck in the Championship fool, the big money and the big players are in the premiere so watch some hoof ball and suck ity up princess.

It's true we do not have the players atm to play entertaining football. We have taken a good step forward in signing McGinn because this lad can play however the loan market could be the saving grace for our season as at the moment we have no strikers and very little pace in the side. I for one love to watch good football like the way we wiped the floor with Wolves last year week in week out but we got to get the whole squad firing to produce this week after week. I'm hoping with a few more ball players people like Hogan would benefit and start banging them in (when fit) like he started to last year just before we signed Grabban and set him backwards again. In truth crap football and promotion I can live with, crap football and staying in Championship or worse not acceptable.

Exactly Davidash65, some people on here talk of last season as if it was a total wash out, that simply wasn't the case by a long chalk. With litle money and suffering horrific personal trauma Bruce was unlucky not to take us up.

I wouldn't say unlucky AVillaFan, our lack of rotation in key areas meant we faded badly during the run in and the performance against Fulham, 25 minutes of which was against 10 men, was appalling.

My main fear is Bruce is a man manager, you can see how he improves players like Hutton, Chester etc, senior Pros but have we seen him develop a talent? And not just at Villa, I believe he ignored Harry Maguire at Hull in favour of his son. Villa are now in an era where we will need to rely on our youth, and where our owners want to embrace young talent from a transfer perspective. In my opinion Bruce is not the man from the job in this case.

I think we have over criticise and over praise Bruce on this site, BUT the fact is he is here to stay, these arguments are redundant, let's get behind the team.

Theres plenty of managers who could manage villa, deansmith, laudraup, alex oneil, m oneil, n gallardo.

Yes I have no doubt that there is lots of managers who would take the job, but which one these do you guarentee to get us promoted at the end of this season Villa4eva?

Otherwise on your own system of judging managers he will be deemed a complete failure. Because bruce took us to within one game of promotion last term and is seen as a failure in your eyes then to better him and avoid that same lable he must take us up.
