The speculations are now true as Gerrad was sacked on Thursday night after Villa suffered a Humiliating 3-0 defeat to Fulham.
The club thanked him for his time and dedication to the team, but they’ll have to let him go, considering that they might hit the Relegation zone if they don’t find a capable hand to help the club.
“We would like to thank Steven for his hard work and commitment and wish him well for the future,” a Villa spokesman said.
Villa fans were enraged by the defeat, as they jeered, booed, and sang brutal chants demanding that Gerrad be sacked
