Agree with your first point. How then would he best address leaving to the fans?

Final whistle blows, Vieira waves, walks down the tunnel, cut to jumbotron:

End of game, press conference as usual, blah blah blah. Standard deflection to any Nice questions as usual.

Standard corporate-speak press release, “wish Patrick the best in his new endeavor and thank him for his time leading NYCFC”, say a coach will be announced before the next game against Toronto.

Nothing more. You don’t put lipstick on a pig, at the end of the day PV chose to leave and the club shouldn’t celebrate that.
 
I’m of two minds about this game. On the one hand, we haven’t been in great form lately, and this is the top team in the league. On the other hand, we are undefeated at home with an 18-2 goal advantage.

Atlanta signed a DP who may be playing for Argentina in the World Cup. I don’t need to finish my thought.

Maybe with a new manager who has input on our transfers...

Word out of Argentina is that Barco may replace Lanzini for the WC. Which would mean he has to leave ASAP. I'm not sure he made the trip in the first place, but it may put him in doubt for the XI today (granted he played80' on wednesday)
As much as I would love that to be true, Messi is the only teenager Argentina has ever taken to a WC. Maradona himself didn't make it to the 1978 one (he was in the provisional roster but was cut), nor Dybala or Saviola or Ortega or Gallardo or any other precocious talent. Despite his upside Barco is light years away from any of those guys at this point. So I rate it as unbelievable.

Atlanta fans think there is no way this is happening. Especially since he hadn’t had a single minute under Sampaoli

Yeah, and David Villa was going to be picked by Spain. Word out of MLS Digital - Argentina office.
