This is Dundee United's second recent thrashing. I watched both their Euro Conference legs against AZ Alkmaar, 1-0 up from the home tie they were hammered 7-0 away.
I couldn't believe how naive they were in the second, they spent the match trying to play out from the back and kept losing the ball before they got it out of their own third of the pitch. I kept thinking FFS start playing it long, you're just not good enough to do it this way.

He really can't. I'm amazed they haven't shown him the door already.

Rumours that there's at least 4 key players leading a dressing room revolt and the players have downed tools. Those at the game say it certainly looked that way.
When that happens, the manager always goes. Far cheaper (and possible) to sack a manager than players.

I reckon Gerrard will be the first Premier League manager to get the sack this season. Tactically clueless in my opinion and rumours are he is losing the dressing room, never a good sign.
Micah Richards in an article for the BBC said the Villa fan's reaction at the end of yesterday's game was over the top. Far from it, Gerrards record is far worse than Dean Smith, yet he is still our manager. I was at the game yesterday, and although I didn't boo Gerrard, fans pay to watch their team and are perfectly entitled to express their opinion, more so than Richards who stole a living whilst he was at AVFC.

Funny that Gerrard and Lampard are being compared again now but it's to see who's actually the worst! Evertonil will break first and get rid of that cockernee spiv I reckon. But Gerrard's winning the league shows just how poor Scottish fitbae is, does it not?

I'd go with Brendan Rodgers personally.

What sort of logic is that? Sure, the league is completely skewed in favour of two teams, but we have a 12 team top flight. England has 20, and the same four sides routinely finish at the top, so proportionally it's just the same.
It's the same across all the European leagues.

Man Utd have excelled themselves again signing Antony for £80 million. At least he's young I suppose.
It's funny how their fans keep moaning on about wanting the Glazers out, and in some respects they are right, but it can't be denied that they're fronting up financially. It's not their fault whoever is responsible keeps signing poor players, or recruiting duff managers. Ten Hag may just as well sign the whole Ajax team at this point.

Every league in Europe is exactly the same top 2/3 sides win all the time the rest make up the numbers . England’s Premier League is certainly talked up enough. Plenty money gets poured in !

Ah, I forgot about Brendan Rodgers, that's quite possible. It's not beyond the bounds of probability that Leicester sack Rodgers, and he ends up at Villa Park.

Never really understood the hype around him. Playoff win with Swansea, FA Cup with Leicester (the Community Shield is a glorified friendly) and a bunch of trophies in Scotland, but when your playing budget is bigger than the rest of all the division's teams combined, that's a given.
I suppose he has a good win ratio, but not much to show for it.

The consensus amongst Villa fans social media is they would like Potter or Poch.
Both of which I think is rather delusional. Poch is unlikely to come to Villa, were not big enough in my opinion, and the owners would be unlikely to give him the money he would want to improve the squad.
Potter has been steadily building a good team at Brighton and I cannot see him wanting to walk away to come to a club with more than its fair share of problems, even though he is a Villa fan.
That leaves Rodgers who, if he gets the push, will be available.
Personally, I would love to have Potter, but I think is highly unlikely.

Yeah, right! So you've had the occasional Leicester, Blackburn and Leeds winning your 'league' have you? You've got an Arsenal, a Spurs and a resurgent Newcastle keeping the top two on their toes 
Don't make me laugh!
