The Return:
So its the start off December 2014 and Aston Villa are found in 16th position and after weeks with Randy Lerner for takeover talks Businessman Grahem Taylor buys the club. Promising to improve the clubs finances and hopefully see the club rise up the table again.
The first piece of action taken by the new Owner is too sack Paul Lambert and bring in a fresh new face to make the club a top 6 club again. The decision was made that the club wanted past legend of the club to take over. Who knew the club inside out and would have the support of the fans. With so many top recent legends of the club around: Dion Dublin, Dwight Yorke, Ian Taylor, Gareth Southgate, Paul Mcgrath, Paul Merson and Steve Staunton being a few of past Villa Heroes. The fans are aksing who could it be???
BREAKING NEWS
Villa Owner is delighted too announce the clubs new manager. Who was a fantastic captain during his time at the club. While playing 101 games and scoring 18 goals during his four years at the club. That man is the one and only Paul Merson who is looking forward to getting back into management after time away being a pundit on Soccer Saturday.
The aim is to bring success to the club once again. With the target for this season to finish mid/top table. The target will be made harder. With the squad missing two key players who were both sold cheaply, with Vlaar sold to Monaco for 2.8m and Delph sold to Southampton for 4.2m. Merson is shocked that two kep players were sold so easily, his comeback maybe made harder without the skills of these two.
With a home game against Newcastle being the first match of the Merson Era. Is a good way to start off with Newcastle on one place ahead in 15th position, hopefully can take advantage of there poor form.
Hope u enjoy this first post, next one will detail the squad and tactics and of course results in december and january.
