Seriously hope not but the man's driven and ambitious and will one day become the boss of a top club - maybe Man U or his ex club Dortmund.
One message for the Villa players though - expect to come in 2 weeks early from your summer hols for fitness training - happened with Colchester players just prior to the 7-1 Norwich thrashing a few years ago. Lambo measures fitness levels against German standards - no surprise that Norwich ran the most yards of all sides in Premier League campaign.
Cheers Paul, top man.

hed be mad to go to villa.

By:
Agree but another step up the ladder in cv terms...
 |
|
By:
if he goes to villa all he can do is fail, putting a big dent in his healthy looking cv, he'll sit tight and wait for a better chance imo.

rob think its a step down now.
|
|
By:
owner wants to save money not spend so you get stuck with the donkies.
its a bad job for ex~wycombe managers too. |
|
By:
I would argue that it's a good time to take the reins at Villa. They are at an all time low, and maybe the only way is up.

Gus Poyet is the interesting one in this market....fits the bill perfectly of being a "young", "vibrant" manager.

norwichrob - whats the feeling in norwich - do you think he will leave?
|
|
By:
Trust me - he won't fail, knowledge of the game and tactical awareness has been extremely impressive - Norwich were worse than hopeless when he arrived, the man's a miracle worker...
 |
|
By:
not sure maggot as the owner was said to want to stop spending, can he improve with the players there already?
|
|
By:
I think the feeling has always been here that he will leave when he's made his mark, if it was Liverpool it would be a certainty but I still feel he will go.
|
|
By:
Why Villa ,not much of a step up from Norwich really
|
|
By:
The only certainty is that he will get the best out of the players - Norwich team entirely made up of League 1 & Championship players, no prima donnas or foreigners, he puts his faith in young, hungry players - so maybe a clear out of sorts at Villa over the summer.

the pay packet might make it worth it

Villa bigger in the eyes of the establishment, and a good chance to revive the glory days?
|
|
By:
their glory days were 30 years ago - they don't have the finances to compete today
i think he will move to a club where finances are in place ,maybe in 2 years |
|
By:
What's he like in the transfer market that's my main concern as there will be lots of coming and goings. I think realists will realise Lambert would jump at the chance to manage such a big club.
|

By:
i'd be shocked if he went to Villa
|
|
By:
are villa big club?
any bigger than say wigan? |
|
By:
he would be going to a bigger club with possibly more money to spend and better players already at villa than he has at norwich and he will get more money personally,if offered the job i would be shocked if he didnt go

How many European Cups, League Titles FA Cups etc have Man City won please? Answer nowhere near as many as Aston Villa.
|

By:
villa have huge potential but need a moneybags
|
|
By:
maybe Wills can have a word with the old man
 |
|
By:
You don't need that much money...just somebody who knows what they're doing. See Levante, Newcastle etc
|
|
By:
so the past indicates that you are a big club?
nearly going down means nothing? |
|
By:
What's not to like about the Villa job?
Lerner will back him. A very good academy, with many youngsters already forced into first team action. Follows on from a dismal season with expectation at its lowest ebb. The biggest club for miles around, with the potential to be putting 40k bums on seats with the right football. I don't want to patronise Norwich, but the club is fairly limited in terms of growth. He probably has taken them as far as he can (some leeway there perhaps). If offered it, he'd be mad not too IMHO. |

Money Tree. Stop trying to look intelligent. Stick to your FREE MUNNY threads. This is about one of the GIANTS OF EUROPEAN FOOTBALL.

Norwich are a fair sized club tbf not in Villa's league obviously..
|
|
By:
hell yes, you cant use the past to hide how sh1t villa are right now.

DORKY Where you been all season VILE "MUG"  |
|
By:
I suppose you only have to look @ wednesday they get 40,000 so a few lower class teams can be big clubs.
but villa have a big problem why would you want that for a job? if it goes wrong it will all be lamberts fault how sh1t they are will be forgotten. |
|
By:
Villa were 9th before the injury crisis took out 5 or 6 first team players.
They need to strengthen no doubt, but the squad isn't as weak as the media would have everyone believe. |
|
By:
I really rate Lambert but the Villa job looks a poisoned chalice for a while, too many players finished, not sure if the youngsters are up to it, who can they attract?
Sit tight Lambert, you'll get better opportunities |
|
By:
Cocknose is back ???????
 |
|
By:
I suppose the question for PL to consider is how much further can he take Norwich as stated earlier, perhaps a couple of places at best, main issue for Norwich fans is that we could go back as quick as we came if he and his coaching team leave.

Managerial moves are all about timing. Villa is perfect for a manager like Lambert to take. He has done a fabulous job at Norwich back to back promotions and survival but the second season is always tough. If he left Norwich now he would have left after three incredible years. The wage bill and transfer budget at Villa will be higher than Norwich. Villa also have a good crop of youngsters coming through. A good manager with a few shrewd signing will probably have them comfortable mid table.
I would have thought this was the perfect time for Lambert to move on and Villa are a big club under performing. It wouldn't be hard for him to improve their position and in turn further enhance his reputation which would make him a contender for a really big club in two to three years time. |
