McClaren, Laudrup, Carvs, The tea lady?

[Monkeys Fist 42427]

Beat me to it.

 

Also, we need an experienced gaffer to kick these fuckers into some semblance of a team.

Once that's been achieved , then we can hoy it all down the pan by giving it to a totally untried beginner.

 

Oh, wait.

I find it difficult why would he come to us, he seems to have a strong personality which I feel would clash with Ashley and Co. I wouldn't say no to him, Keegan was just as inexperienced when he took over. So yeah anybody would be better than Carver, I think the sticking point would be, he'd want his own staff.

Why would him wanting his own staff be a problem. That is a norm when new Head Coaches start. Do we really need any of the dross we have?

Garde let down...

You've not really paid attention to us lately have you?

Remind me where Keegan started his managerial career?

[Park Life 71]

Could be a masterstroke. Shocked they've even thought of it.

[Park Life 71]

Would certainly command the dressing room.

[Rayvin 5220]

I suppose part of the thinking here is his experience to date will be working with a team of players, the make up of which he has little/no say in, and developing them into better performers.

 

All of that actually makes sense for the board's philosophy.

 

But he's totally unproven, which worries me.

[bobbyshinton 59]

Its not a case of being better than Charver it has to be who is best fit for our plans / needs. I would rather have him than the vastly experienced Bruce or McClaren etc.

Art galleries are what I look for when I'm considering a job in a new city, mind.

 

That said, we do have some...

[Kitman 2204]

I can't see us going for Vieira. That would show some semblance of vision and decisiveness for starters.

[Rayvin 5220]

I checked his stats out on FM..actually not bad! I expect Dave to give him his seal of approval any moment now.

[toonotl 2978]

Not that my opinion is even in the same stratosphere as Lord Shithouse. But I think Viera will make a brilliant manager wherever he goes.

 

He's the kind of character that demands respect and generates self-belief. Viera will be the kind of manager that Roy Keane thinks Roy Keane is without the conflated ego.

I think he could do it. He has the self-belief and breeds confidence.

[toonotl 2978]

Yep. No argument here. Totally agree. If we manage to somehow convince him to take the reins I'll be very pleased.

[Andrew 4748]

I can't really see why he'd want to come here.

 

A lot of french players who he'd have immediate sway over, I reckon Sissoko is one who would respond to him very positively.

 

No lose situation here for a first time manager, if you succeed youve done so despite the board, if you fail (as long as you dont look as inept as carver) its the boards fault as far as the media are concerned and then you've got yourself on the managerial merry-go-round and will get a job elsewhere.

 

[strawb 4248]

I live 10 minutes from the city ground/youth ground now.

 

Vieira isn't even the assistant manager, he looks after the youth team. One of the joiners at works son plays for them and Vieira has full blown childish rows with the under 18's, cant see it going well if this is true.

[ewerk 30602]

Every chance of him being another Keane. He has no managerial record to base the appointment on. It'd be a big risk.

[toonotl 2978]

I'll reserve judgement until I hear from the blacksmith's bairn.

To me Viera is the antithesis of Keane. As I said I think Keane sees himself as the kind of manager that Viera will actually be. By that I mean that I think Keane is a fake hard man. Keane always struck me as a blowhard always trying to prove his toughness.

 

For mine Viera is simply just a tough character. He exudes toughness and breeds confidence in those around him just by being himself. He's what Keane wishes he was and he's what Keane spent his entire career trying to prove to everyone that he could be.

 

I could be spectacularly wrong. But that's just my view of the guy.

I'm just being a dickhead. Don't mind me. Post more and you'll get used to it.

[Bizza 105]

I'd rather we got someone in with some actual managerial experience, more skintflinting from the fat controller.

Interesting what he says about Newcastle.
