Ole Gunnar Solskjær in talks with them.

What, as player or manager? I do hope they get McCarthy or someone equally uninspiring, I pray they get Paul Hart even, they should have gone down this season and I am sure they can do even worse next season, I would have preferred Bolton staying up TBH.

What, are you missing the championship already?

Ole is wanted as their new manager. According to the telly here in Norway, Randy Learner @ Co are in talks with his club as we speak it seems like.
OGS has taken the norwegian Premier League(cough,cough) by storm since he took charge of MOLDE FC last season. He brought a "bunch" of ex. united coaches with him as well. Last year Molde won the title for the first time, and they are playing excellent this year as well.
I´m really not sure how he will cope as a manager in the real PL but as I can judge his management skills he is hugely talented.
Funny thing is that Ole Gunnar himself denies that he want to leave the club where he had his breakthrough as a player, but money talks I guess.

For what it´s worth, I cant see it will happen with kids and wife wanting to stay in Norway for a few years more. His wife were apperently homesick.


PS. why cant they appoint Paul Hart instead?? That´s my humble opinion(not)

He is regarded as a very hot management prospect as he has worked wonders with current club.

Just what I said in the post above.

Villa are well known for an excellent youth system, Ole has done amazing with the system at Utd.
given better investment Villa could be on the up with regards to the new regulations of locally sourced players.

this really could be a turning point in their history for the next decade or even more.

[Shania]

For him personally this could be the right time to leave for bigger tasks.
But for norewegian fotball it would be a disaster. His team and the way they play is the only positive thing in our national league ATM.

Would be a good appointment, hope it doesnt happen

Spot on.

Yeah but I am not betting on Villa to go down until they appoint their next manager.
