Is it? Randy Lerner seems to be one of the better chairmen in football. O'neills done well at villa, but he's hit a glass ceiling I feel with regards to what they can actually achieve
So I have been told, Learner wouldn't back O'Neil as much as he asked for, basically saying that the money wasn't there, this was back in April. The fans at Villa never really took to him either, lets see if Mr Learner dips his hand into his pocket to support the new manager with some funds that weren't as forthcoming to Martin. Yes he made a couple of signings but nothing like he wanted or the fans wanted. Too much expectation from the fans? Mr Learner keeping a tight hold of finances? players not willing to sign for them? possibly all the above. |

O'Neil must have spent over £60m on transfers since he's been there.

Apart from the imminent sale of Milner,there have been constant rumours about Ashley Young,
which have resurfaced in the last few days.Perhaps O'Neill asked Lerner for reassurances that
Young wouldn't also be sold?

My understanding is that with the Milner deal,O'Neill although not wanting to sell,was prepared to
do a deal of cash plus 1 Man City player,but Lerner is only interested in a straight cash deal.

Downing's been linked with a move away as well. Probably bollocks though.

Bradley's the favourite I believe, bit of an eyebrow raiser.

Bradley had a good World Cup. He wasn't afraid to change things and did pretty well tactically. He deserves a go somewhere biggish. It all depends on what Lerner wants to do though. He looks like he doesn't want to invest any more money so Bradley might be ideal.

Talk of them being after Mark Hughes, if true you have to feel for Fulham fans who could lose 2 managers before the season starts!!

Tony Pulis would be a decent shout IMO.
