2024/25 Sean Dyche

Love the economics in here, who wouldn't want 5 mill a year.

Eh someone - whose getting 3 mill a year on a 5 year contract in a job safe as houses somewhere else, rather then a club that wants the manager sacked every six months.

Seriously!
3 mil a year is a top 30 manager in the world by the way.

We're all talking about an up-and-comer at best.
 


Tbf I bet Villa didn't hold out much hope for Emery until they flashed the cash and sold him the vision for their future.

Aye mate. I wanted him in 2019 when the majority were taking the piss after his spell at Arsenal;

This thread just shows how short term fan thinking can be.

I was saying to the other moderators the other day we should be speaking to Emery...

He's a top manager, following Wenger was always a big ask and sometimes managers just dont fit certain clubs.


Villa did tremendously well getting him when they did.

The thing is though, we can't 'flash the cash', nor sell a vision for the future because the clubs owner is - apparently - desperately trying to sell.
 
It’s the middle of September and we are six points off the top half, a good, ambitious manager would jump at the chance to manage a club like us, take us to our new ground.

An ambitious manager would want an ambitious club that behaves as such. With money to spend, which we do not.

Until we have new owners, willing and able to deliver on their promises of significant squad improvement, the team won’t finish in the top half and won’t be able to compete in any meaningful way.

We’ve been up for sale for nearly 2 years and it doesn’t look like being resolved any time soon. If you’re Corberan, you want that sorting before you commit to any project.
 
Hahah so we want a new manager just not one in the top 30 in the world and we will offer him a multi year deal on five million a year with full compo while the average length of one of our managers reign - being generous about a year. Cracking plan! :lol:

This is absolutely why you can ignore 99% of the lord of the flies dogma posts on here and part of whats wrong at this club.

Even more hilarious is the manager the naive are advocating to loose was able to negotiate a two year deal with full compensation + 100%! :lol:

Don’t worry lads Farhads got this!

The naivety is actually fascinating - keep it up! ;)
