Is Dean Smith any better than Delia Smith?
That I'm not sure
Tactically he can be naive, and his use of substitutes leaves many Villa fans scratching their heads at times.
Playing two up front doesn't appear to be working, and three at the back allowed Arsenal to run riot over us. The first half performance was dire.
Neverless he has three new players in, who need to gel and I feel it may need more time and then we will click, but as I said earlier in the thread, time may be running out for him, our owners are ambitious and if we are around the relegation zone come Christmas they may want a different manager in charge.
