There have been a few rumours going around this week that the most potential buy is Larry Ellison, the 5th richest man in the world. Ellisons net worth is roughly £28.45 billion. These rumours start after Larry Ellison was seen at Villa Park watching the 3-1 victory over Hull City. There are a couple of theories as to why Ellison was seen at Villa Park, he either enjoys Premier League football, wanted to buy Aston Villa or Hull City…
Even more recently some (light) rumours are emerging that Aston Villa might be taken over by the Oracle group, which is Ellison’s company. On top of that, Jurgan Klinsmann, current US manager would take Paul Lambert’s job after the World Cup. Klinsmann is a good manager, he’s managed Bayern Munich, Germany and most recently United States. More interesting Klinsmann has been linked with the Aston Villa managerial role more than one occasion.
Obviously these are just rumours and fans will know about the future of their club by next week (hopefully!). Either way there will be change this summer, whether it will be just owner, board or the entire hierarchy of Villa.
Imagine if Lerner released his statement at half time! Lol!
“Lulz, I’ve sold the club and the owners have already sacked you Lambert. You’re jobless at half time. Tonev’s manager for the 2nd half. Bye folks!”
he might say sorry for the shit he put us through, i am gonna splash all my wealth on the team and make u great again nxt season and england will win the world cup lmao 🙂
I think Lerner will stay, a director of football will be employed to negotiate contracts/fees for players that the “management team” want and Pie eating Paul will deal more with the commercial side of things. I put “management team” because I also think that Lambert will make or be forced to make Sid and Given his permanent assistants/coaches. Culverhouse and Gardsa won’t be coming back in my opinion. Money will be made available and I believe the purse strings will be made looser than the last 4 years but not to the extent of the O’Neil days. Of course I could be totally wrong but in my opinion what I’ve written would make sense. Really can’t see a takeover happening. Lerner’s statement will be to say he’s making changes and no takeover is happening, it’s all rumours.
Hope ur wrong b6 coukdbt stand another season of lamberk and Lerner
Lambert will not be manager/coach or anything next year at AVFC, if he was the contract extension would have happened.
I think Lerner will stay owner, and the statement will be a complete reshuffle of the board and a director of football will be announced, along with the new manager and said funds.
This is also why Albrighton’s contract has been stalled because they want the new manager to approve or remove, and currently his agent is talking to Leicester where he will end up.
Finally we may see a few radical changes, but the ethos will be pretty much the same as the past 4 years.
agree vtid same old shit but in disguise
TUCHEL WANTS TO LEAVE MAINZ… He has 1 year left… But has told their board he’s wanted to leave for a couple months now. This is the god damn time to get him in.
100% agreed, Tuchel would be a dream appointment. Not a big name but the job he’s done at Mainz is fantastic. Right time for him to step up and IMO would literally be a perfect fit for us. My first choice.
German reports claim he’s either going to Red Bull Salzburg and joining their dynasty or won’t manage anyone as Mainz won’t let him go so he’ll sit around for a year.
The negativity on here is crazy… we just need to sit back and see what happens regarding Lerner’s statement, we’ve all tried second guessing him before and that was to no avail, astonishing how all the optimism over a takeover is gone within a few weeks…
plenty to be negative about.
Graham Taylor has just said on Wm that a deal to sell us is done!
“Every source he has at Villa has told him it’s a done deal”… I guess you’d think a few would know it’s done.
Andrew, u rate tonev and baker?? U have no clue about football…baker too many mistakes that cost us, everyone says hes young though….take one look at stones at everton! As for tonev couldnt hit a barn door….
Villa need a rich owner and good experianced players! We need hernandez, lescott, ferdinand, fellani, kagowa, ruddy, cole, and walker then we would be a very gd club and none of them will cost to much
