He's landed a top 10 job twice now!

I think those two appointments show what absolute suckers many clubs remain for "self-confident" (read, arrogant as f**k) blowhards who "talk a good game".

Look at the length of his contract. It's laughable - but there are owners out there who'd see him playing hardball despite being a total fraud as all part of his "infectious enthusiasm".

One other thing. As I noted the other day, no good manager would touch Villa with a bargepole right now: not while they have no money and their ownership is in limbo. Meaning as much as anything, they've been forced to give Mr Self-Promotion the job. Incredible if it works out.
