Aston Villa will attempt to lure Mauricio Pochettino to Villa Park if the club decide to part ways with Steven Gerrard in the coming weeks, the Telegraph ...

He may have impressed in talks, but spells in Germany and France weren’t entirely fruitful, so it is not a name that screams immediate success. Nuno Espirito Santo was last week linked with a shock return to the club, but Bosz is said to have impressed in interviews. The former Borussia Dortmund and Ajax manager is now deemed a strong contender to replace Bruno Lage, and his recent sacking by Lyon earlier this month has not damaged his reputation according to the paper. That being said, his loyalty may still be tested depending on whether other clubs make an approach for him, and two renewals within the space of 12 months would be difficult to go back on. If he can’t, then it would be time for Pochettino to weigh up his options. They face Fulham away on Thursday and Brentford at home on Sunday, two matches which could decide Gerrard’s fate, and if the former Rangers boss is dismissed then Villa will have an ambitious top target in Pochettino, the ex-Tottenham manager who left Paris Saint-Germain at the end of last season.

Aston Villa are reportedly targeting a heavyweight managerial appointment if under-pressure Steven Gerrard is relieved off his duties.

If you do, you shouldn’t.' Posting on Twitter on Monday night, he posted: 'How many times can you publish complete lies before people unfollow the account? [Gerrard](https://extra.ie/2022/10/11/sport/soccernews/roy-keane-gerrard-villa) is believed to be clinging to his job after another summer of heavy investment in the squad, with the Villains looking short on creativity and toothless in attack, scoring just seven goals - the second-lowest tally in the top flight.

Liam Coyle speaks exclusively to the ECHO about being Steven Gerrard's first captain, working with Pep Lijnders and dealing with his release from Liverpool ...

It was daunting being in a new place because I had always been at Liverpool but from the get-go, everyone has been brilliant with me; the staff and the players. It would mean while the likes of Jones, Woodburn, Brewster and Alexander-Arnold were all grasping chances within the senior game - whether that be on Merseyside or elsewhere - Coyle was constantly looking to make up for the lost time in a desperate attempt to make the grade at Liverpool. Coming out of the pandemic I didn’t know where I was going to end up. "At one tournament he was saying to me, 'I don’t think you’re ever going to be a centre-half' - but I had played centre-half for him quite a bit - and he was like, ‘I need you to play centre-half for me today, you’re not going to be a centre-half when you’re older. "We got told in the pre-season that a coach from Porto, Pep Lijnders, was going to be the new under-16s coach and all the sessions were going to be videoed and sent to him. "I remember going into the office and I just asked Alex what my future held at the club," Coyle says. I knew a lot of the lads at that time were having back injuries but I played the full 90 minutes because I was having a bad game I didn’t want to put my hand up and blame my back as an excuse. Some of the sessions he put on were unbelievable and you could just see how passionate he was about the game." I really enjoyed working with him and I think that was because we had similar values on the passion to win. "It was in that Spartak Moscow game and about ten minutes in, I remember the ball went over my head and I jumped for a header and flicked it on," Coyle tells the ECHO in an exclusive interview. Gerrard would primarily take up a freewheeling position until the end of the campaign, taking in training sessions and matches, while readying for his first position in the cut-throat industry of football management. "I never thought of it like that, his first captain," says Coyle with a euphoric grin, recalling the moment he first collaborated with Anfield legend Steven Gerrard.

Former Aston Villa manager Tim Sherwood has made a surprising Steven Gerrard claim following his old team's defeat to Chelsea at the weekend.

“It’s difficult, it’s a difficult environment, it can be the best environment at Villa Park. “I think he’s the correct man for the job, I really do, and I think it’s too early to talk about him losing his job,” Sherwood told TalkSPORT. Most of the noise around Villa Park is that the ex-England captain is not the man for the job, and is on borrowed time, but Sherwood believes otherwise.

McKechnie was jailed for six weeks for the offence after providing a demonstration about Just Stop Oil. But Howe feels that social media, rightly or wrongly, plays a part in modern-day management.
