gdm Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Why Edwards being such a tool about it Luke Edwards @LukeEdwardsTele 6m6 minutes ago Manchester Evening News wrote Vieira story yesterday. Independent wrote it eight hours ago. Bookmakers slashed odds yesterday morning #nufc Sure Viera odds were slashed on Thursday though ? Probably coz his paper the telegraph ran a story saying McClaren was getting the job about 10 mins before the Viera talks story broke Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Might put £50 on John Hartson, see if that brings the odds on him down and gets a story in the paper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fret Astaire Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 A Manure-supporting mate on Vieira's managerial skillz:- The 2 or 3 times I've seen City's U21s this season, his tactics have been absolute suicide. Both times they played United's U21s, when City were in possession, all 10 outfield players were in United's half. The whole team push right up past the half way line. There's high defensive lines, and there's just utter lunacy. What ended up being the U21 Premier League title decider at Old Trafford ended 4-0. City were the better side in possession, but got torn several new arseholes on the counter. For some reason, Vieira didn't take United's opening goal in the first 5 minutes as a warning to reel it in a bit. If not for ropey finishing, it could have ended 10-0. Vieira just stood on the sidelines shrugging as flat, horizontal passes sliced the defence in half, and pacey forwards had 50 yards of space to run at. In the end, Vieira's City limped to a 5th place finish in the U21 Premier League, despite having what is arguably the 2nd best crop of youngsters, behind Chelsea. They scored the 2nd most goals in the division, but also conceded the 3rd most goals, because they play absolutely mental football. Sounds like fun...
