Who are the front runners for the job and who do our resident Villa fans want?

Steve Bruce and David Wagner are frontrunners according to media. Bruce could do a solid job I suppose.

I wouldn't be surprised if Bruce was one of the managers caught by the Telegraph, they haven't all be revealed yet have they?

quote:

AFC Wimbledon have reached a historic milestone by climbing above Milton Keynes Dons in the football pyramid for the first time – only 14 years after they were formed.

Neal Ardley’s side defeated Oxford United 3-1 to move up to 10th in League One, two places above MK Dons, who lost 1-0 at home to Port Vale. Wimbledon took a 3-0 half-time lead at the Kassam Stadium through Tom Elliott, Darius Charles and Andy Barcham, before a Charles own goal offered Oxford consolation.

Alex Jones’ first-half goal proved enough for Port Vale to prevail at stadium:mk, with Ben Reeves hitting the bar for the hosts with a late free-kick. Karl Robinson’s team drop to 12th, while Port Vale climb to fourth.

Didn't watch the match, but Villa fans are being Villa fans on their forum and saying it was the worst second half they have ever played.

I thought Newcastle paid way too much for Dwight Gayle but it looks like a pretty impressive buy. He must be top of the goalscoring charts right?

It was a really bad second half, I don't think we had a single shot and Wolves should have won 4 or 5-1.

he really shouldn't. i thought ritchie was going to be our best signing but gayle is so loving good i have no idea what pardew was thinking

shelvey is also playing really well but idk how much is he's finally sorted his head out or just that championship teams don't mark him like happened last season meaning the fact he doesn't run or tackle much is less of an issue

With Palace signing Benteke, Gayle could have thrived in a big man little man system.

He was a one goal in four matches striker for Palace, and their leading scorer in the Premier League while never being first choice for like three seasons.

You've gone through at the back
Mitrovic's patented 'come off the bench and get a ridiculous booking straight away to show how hard I am' move probably riles Rafa quite a bit too.
