adminLONDON. — English Premiership soccer side Aston Villa have dismissed manager Tim Sherwood after being in charge for eight months. Andre Ayew’s late winner for Swansea on Saturday condemned Villa, who had taken the lead, to their sixth consecutive Premier League loss and eighth in 10 league games. The defeat left Villa on four points with a trip to Southampton in the Capital One Cup coming up on Wednesday.
A statement on the club website read: “The board has monitored the performances closely all season and believes the results on the pitch were simply not good enough and that a change is imperative.” — Sky Sports.
