Former Aston Villa striker Stan Collymore believes that Tim Sherwood should not be appointed the next manager at Villa Park.
Paul Lambert was axed as Villa boss on Wednesday night following the 2-0 defeat to Hull City on Tuesday night, a result which saw them go 10 Premier League games without a win.
Former Spurs boss Tim Sherwood has already emerged as the front runner for the job at Villa Park, but Collymore has warned his former employers to appoint a more experienced manager.
“I just want to see someone really experienced that can make good signings in the summer time, that can work on a strict budget which Aston Villa have got and be able to do the basics like motivate players and organise a team, which Paul Lambert just didn’t do,” Collymore told talkSPORT.
“I’m not convinced by Tim Sherwood, it’s a huge job [at Aston Villa]. I’ve got a sneaking feeling it might be Tim Sherwood but I don’t think it should be. It should be a very experienced manager but the question is how many are out there at the moment?”
