Ameritoon Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 It does require living in New York City, and I imagine he was told to go there more than anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomas Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 I imagine there were very good reason to choose it. Lesser league, less pressure, non-antagonistic/brutal press on local or national level, no true expectations among other things. For a first true first team managerial job it's just a better fit.

Minhosa Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 There was a lot of talk on Sunday Supplement a few weeks ago saying how highly regarded he was at City and how the Owners had been trying to talk him into this gig for a while to keep him out of Arsenal's reaches.

timeEd32 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 He was clearly looking for a first team role and City apparently thinks highly of him, so they've given him a more high profile gig that keeps him under their control. If he's great then they can bring him back to Manchester whenever they want. If he fails then no great loss. At the moment, NYCFC is a glorified reserves team acting as a marketing vehicle in the most important city in the world. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
