Guest Howaythetoon Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 McLaren's record at Boro in the PL: 12th, 11th, 11th, 7th (League cup winners), 14th (UEFA finalists). Also got to 2 FA cup semi finals. Easy to see why this is Ashleys dream appointment Not a bad record in general for a club like Boro. I'd far rather we didn't appoint someone like McClaren, but he would be a decent enough appointment all things considered. Vieira smacks to me of the club trying to force McClaren's hand into accepting our terms etc. As leftfield as he would be, we need someone experienced, someone with some kind of track record. I'd take the former Boro man over Vieira like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone with experience brings that, fine. If someone without it brings it, also fine. What we need isn't at all dependent on any form of experience tbh.

nufc4eva Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 I would happily see Viera get it. Inexperienced yes and unknown but bit more exciting than just another bang average British manager. Always liked Viera as well and comes across well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

henke Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 I see Paul Clement has left Real Madrid now, no compo for Ashley if he's interested I'd love to see this guy get the job. Based on absolutely nothing I think he'll turn out to be class. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsunami Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Whoever we appoint is going to need serious investment in the squad or the poor bugger will be a basket case by Christmas. If we do get Vieira I'd hope he'd been satisfied with our plans whereas if we appoint McLaren I'd be more inclined to feel that he'd accept the job no matter what. I can't imagine Vieira would tow the line for too long if he wasn't happy with what was going on. For that reason alone I'd rather see Vieira.
