So if Villa do appoint RDM as expected, that would mean two managers who have won the Champions League would be managing in the Championship.
There's something backwards about that.

ridiculous decision. RDM shouldn't have been appointed in the first place, but to be given just 12 games to rectify four or five years of regular management changes and poor player recruitment is an absolute
farce. What decent manager will come in knowing they get about 10 matches to make an impression? And we only lost 3 of those games. Drawing games isn't great but its at least a start.
5 managers in just over a year. Maybe it might click one day that the manager isn't the problem.
sake.
He won the Champions League with Chelsea FFS.
However like us he is in a results business
England--- 3 in 3 months--might be 4 in 12 months.

Forget this concept of getting a manager who is young, hungry and an excellent prospect for the future. We need experience, efficiency and - dare I say it - boring.
The only exception I would accept for a young manager would be Ryan Giggs. If Villa take a punt on a young manager, I'd want it to be him. It's not likely (although the odds have been slashed recently), but I'd like to see his influence on the team. And maybe play himself before he puts Westwood on the pitch.

Big Sam would be a good fit in my opinion, he gets the job done, legal or illegal... haha!
In other news what on earth is going on with West Ham... some amazing skills and beautiful to watch some of the games but dire defending means we're likely to be relegated at this rate!

Money isn't everything, although, if we skip last year, the premier league would normally suggest otherwise.
