da gbg bet： According to reports in Spanish publication Sport, Aston Villa are eyeing Saint-Etienne manager Oscar Garcia as a potential replacement for the under-fire Steve Bruce if results don’t improve.
da premier bet： Despite once again being one of the pre-season favourites for promotion, the Midlands outfit have won just one of their opening seven Championship matches this term and lie 18th in the table.
After bringing the likes of Conor Hourihane, Scott Hogan, John Terry, Neil Taylor and Robert Snodgrass to the club since he replaced Roberto Di Matteo last October, both the fans and the chairman Dr Tony Xia will have been expecting to see results, but it hasn’t really happened yet.
Garcia has experience of managing at this level with Brighton and Hove Albion and Watford, but having only taken the reins at the Ligue 1 outfit this summer a move seems unlikely.
Aston Villa supporters were quick to have their say on the rumour via social media, and they were divided with their opinions.
While some described it as “rubbish” and believe they should stick with Bruce, others say the Spanish boss is ‘exactly what Villa need’.
