    Think Brendan Rogers would be their best bet. Think he’a a brilliant manager and would do well.

    I mentioned similar re Rodgers and someone said he's an ex Liverpool boss so they might not go with him, thing is he had no connection to Liverpool prior to taking over as their boss, coming from Swansea, his style of football would suit Man U.

    I’ve never heard of him, but I have heard it’s his assistant that’s the main man. What’s his background?
    Started off on the stall where he should have stayed imo. Got ideas above his station and saw an number of business ventures fail and married a succession of women which always ended in tears. Has been obsessed with his mate Sharon for years who eventually ended up trying to poison him to death. Had a bit of a meltdown at one point too. Makes a tremendous King Rib supper though.

    Wonder if Rodgers would be tempted by the Villa job.

    Was in charge of the Liverpool academy, hence the Gerrard connection.

    Youth coach then went to be assistant manager at Sao Paolo. Returned to the UK at Liverpool and then up to Rangers.
    Cheers.

    I don't think so, to be honest. He's got a good set up at Leicester and things are going well. If Man United came calling, that would be hard to turn down.

    Think it could be a risky appointment for Villa. Considering Rangers resources, Gerrards reign has been underwhelming. Only one trophy I think and it could be argued that Celtics implosion and inability to sort out managerial appointment allowed Rangers to win the league
    Not sure about that, as much as I despise both the huns and Gerrard I don't think it can be described as underwhelming.

    Has done excellently in Europe qualifying for the Europa groups every season, especially in his first couple of years when they were very low seeds and put out some top teams.

    Domestic record hasn't been ideal but Celtic have had far more money to spend for the bulk of his career at Rangers. Follow swiss ramble quite closely who posts good analysis of football finances, and right up until last season Celtic were making tens of millions more than them each year and spending about £30 million more on wages as well.

    Watch the mass exedous from Rangers once SG goes.

    They can always get the military to stand in for them. Seeing as the bond is so close.

    Maybe it’s just a Hibs made rumour to upset the Huns before the semi final. The shoe’s usually on the other foot so that would be an ironic twist. 🤣

    Hopefully the Gerrard thing rumbles on and unsettles them right up until a few days or so before the semi, seeing them unsettled by media stories relating to football staff leaving would for once be a nice change

    I reckon Gerrard will be announced at Villa before the weeks done.

    They don’t seem to be messing around and supposedly a clause that they’re only needing to pay £2m-£3m compensation

    I’d be surprised if he leaves Rangers for Villa. As much as I dislike Celtic/Rangers, would that be an attractive move - mid to bottom table of premier league, no Europe etc

    Is he going to get a better offer? Doubt that he wants to stay at Ibrox forever.

    It would give him a chance to pitch for the Liverpool job.

    I disagree.

    There’s a strong chance Celtic could win the league this year and if they do, Gerrards reputation will be shot to pieces, if he wins the league his stock won’t get any higher than it is now.

    Aston Villa are a huge club who will spend a lot of money on players. He’s got an opportunity to get back into the premiership which will be more appealing than a few games in Europe against some pretty average and some decent sides.

    There’s also the family side of it, apparently his family have stayed down south and he travels back a couple of times a week. Getting to go and live back home again would be a huge appeal.

    I think it’s a no brainer for him.
