Kreis Officially Out At NYCFC
- Thread starter The Toe
- Start date
Hiring Vieira would essentially bring the 'Boy City' stigma with NYCFC right back to the forefront.
Outside of the jersey being a complete clone of MCFC and Lampard arriving late, I feel like the MCFC influence has been mostly unobtrusive this year, and that's a good thing.
But its almost like with Vieira, he is coming to ask the CFG overlords where he can learn the ropes, and they are like 'why don't you coach our little toy club in New York'? He has too much of an MCFC connection.
The club would probably be better off taking anyone but Vieira. But it looks like its going to be him.

Thinking about it now...I actually feel bad, but I think in the end, he hated the whole thing about being here. There is no real loss here for the team. There was a total disconnect between him and the nonamerican players.
i feel literally the opposite. i delayed renewing until the last day, but did so. cowardly as fuck to wait until after the renewal deadline and then drop this. i may not have.
Actually, most of the stuff I've read says that Vieira wants to manage in Europe and has asked not to go to NYC. There's an interesting side-story over here saying that Arsenal are trying to tempt him away with an Assistant Manager position under Wenger and CFG are having to find something bigger to offer him to keep him since he's turned down the New York role. He doesn't appear to be the originator of the rumours at all.
A lot of city fans want shut of him and Jason Wilcox to take over the eds at city
Not really. My point being is that most of those names won at a time when MLS was not nearly as good and competitive as it is right now or has been over the last few years. Peter Vermes and Dom Kinnear I said were good coaches as well, certainly one of the better ones in MLS just like Kreis. Gary Smith is not a coach.
lol.....are we talking about the same movie? 22 jump street? not the 21 jump street reboot which I thought was quite funny.Now I know you don't know jack shit about movies, either. You're the board Wingert.
it's just amazing to me that kreis was hobbled at every fucking turn with this team and anyone is surprised he failed to make the playoffs. look at some of these justifications - they even repeat it - pirlo and lampard are clearly the right business move for the team, because we draw 10k more than RB do. kreis wasn't perfect, but i really don't know what i'm going to do or feel if we seriously are the place that vieira chills out waiting for pellegrini to step down.
still gutted and betrayed, particularly the coward fucking move to do this the first business day after founding member renewals.

Viera and Capello, says the DM. Also sets Jason's salary at $1mil.

Mark Hughes was in charge. Not a CFG man. Replaced by Roberto Mancini, replaced by manuel pellegrini.

Mark Hughes was not CFG choice. The club came with him. They persevered but he was shocking. City needed to move on a level. A little like you do now. The choice is mediocry or bigger and better.
I remember him having the same injury as Frank Lampard. I think a strain of some sort. I'm not a doctor or anything near it so I can't weigh in on the amount of time that takes to heal. Just seemed like he kind of took a backseat after bad performances and had no interest in playing again for the season.
I would bet on him winning a trophy in the future before we do. But I could see him seeing out his huge contract with us and then going to Seattle when Sigi is finally kicked out.
I keep hearing how world class our ownership is, but so far it's just been amateur hour since the very beginning. It's been short sighted decision after short sighted decision.

If you truly think that you really don't see the big picture. I think in 10 years time we'll be talking about a few trophies won
Untrue. See utd & Liverpool. Both spent tons over the past couple of season and both are still bad
The point being made was $$$ solves problems. My point is that it's not just throwing $$$ at something that will fix it. Good management is also needed
