Villa have parted company with Sherwood just 10 games into the campaign with the club winless since the opening day of the season and four points adrift of safety
Aston Villa have announced the sacking of manager Tim Sherwood with the club sitting second bottom of the Premier League.
Villa have endured a poor start to the campaign, having lost eight of their 10 league matches, after recording one point from the previous nine games.
After maintaining the club's standing in the top-flight last season and leading the Midlands side to their first FA Cup final appearance in 15 years, Sherwood spent over £50million in transfer fees over the summer.
