NG32 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Already, scores of Newcastle fans have been receptive to the prospect of Vieira being the next head coach. Senior players at Man City are thought to have already gave the idea the thumbs up and Vieira’s global appeal in football speaks for itself. Newcastle’s large French contingent at St James’ Park would also be unlikely to be unhappy with the appointment. jesus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Venkman Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 If he did come in, David Platt number 2? Former team mate and would have played/worked under him at City too. Nah mate, John Carver. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newcastle Fan Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 I'd take Patrick Vieria and start him in midfield tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EthiGeordie Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 With the exception of Remy we dont even go back for anyone once they reject us. Ashley seems hold grudges it is highly unlikely he go back so McSChit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EthiGeordie Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 "Newcastle is the perfect job for him. It's a job that comes without negative consequences. If you fail you've got the loophole that Mike Ashley hampered your progress. If you're successful it was done despite Ashley."

Mick Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Big risk but as we know Ashley likes a gamble Sadly for every Kevin Keegan there is a Bryan Robson Or a Carver. Think he thought of former great players... Carver was a former great player, no player could have done better than him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrisjraby Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Would take him as a player, as a manager he can fuck off. Just when you think this club couldn't surprise you any further... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hudson Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 This appointment is just the type of Ashley likes to gamble on, and they tend to pan out for him as well. All in i cannot say i'm against this idea considering Viera. He cannot be worse than Carver can he ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliottman Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Would take him as a player, as a manager he can f*** off. Just when you think this club couldn't surprise you any further... why can he fuck off? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Can't believe some people could turn this into a negative story. He's unproven and would be a risk but Christ we could do with some excitement. If it didn't work, I wouldn't blame the hierarchy for taking this sort of risk. Take risk and excitement over mundane and average all day. Yes I realise those aren't the only two options.

EthiGeordie Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 The only problem I am facing is why did they leak the stories? Sun and Sky are their preferred news outlet so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 I think I prefer the wild card option of Patrick Vieira to the safer on paper choice of Steve McLaren but it would be an odd choice for NUFC to take when there are quite a few managers out of contract at the moment with good records and plenty of management experience.

Unbelievable Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Vieira was a brilliant player but is unproven as a manager so I don't want him. If the club are to show some ambition they need to bring in a young proven manager who is ambitious himself and has something of a track record. I don't include McClaren who failed at Derby and was happy to stay with them in the Championship. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStar Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 You know exactly what you'd get with McClaren and it's not particularly interesting. Vieira could be better, he could be worse, but on that alone I'd prefer him. I just want to feel something. Of course ideally we'd get someone who was both proven and has the potential to surprise us. But Charnley is in charge of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliottman Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Looking at it, he's clearly highly thought of throughout the game, you'd imagine he'd have the respect of the players, and youd think he'd want the game played in the right way. it's whether he can get that across on a day to day basis. I'd be happy to get behind him. blatantly going to be McLaren. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
