Agreed. I always liked Lambert as a manager too, thought he did a good job at Norwich. Not sure where it went wrong at Villa. Probably buying too many average players in the end. But still, Sherwood is getting them scoring goals, Lambert couldn't. Strange.The Aston Villa squad was always too talented to get relegated. I have no idea how they underachieved like they did under Lambert.

Underachieving squad with a new manager . Can't remember anything like this ever happening before.The Aston Villa squad was always too talented to get relegated. I have no idea how they underachieved like they did under Lambert.
He'll probably be sacked 10 games into the new season
you are such a wankerTim got the highest PPG in our Prem history yet was appallingly abused as being 'dim' and 'clueless'.
Now he has pretty much steered Villa to safety and an FA Cup final (we haven't been in that final since 1991). The case for him being a better manager than Poch (he's beaten him head to head three times in a row as well) is being to look very persuasive.
As I've said many a time if 'Tim is dim' what does that make Poch?

I'm afraid it speaks volumes for the Tottenham faithful and the board.And even so, he still managed to get himself sacked and despised by large parts of the Tottenham faithful. Speaks volumes of him doesn't it? Results wise he was fine, no doubt, and he deserves credit for what he did with our youth setup, but the man had to go. I wish him the best at Villa though.
