Another BIG star is the last thing we need IMO...Gerrard isn't the key...he is an upgrade to both Emerson and Vieira but surely we will need to get rid of one of them, and if their sales can't equal half of Gerrad's cost, I don't consider it a good signing.

Just play our youngsters atleast...we need a black and white heart

How can our players have a black and white heart when the coach himself doesnt? However, that's not the only thing he lacks. Have said it before, he also lacks the ability to nurture younger talent. What he needs are high profile players to make his work easier. What he doesn't realise is, that doesn't make the work easier, it only makes the future more difficult.

When Juventus bought Zidane, he was neither an Emerson nor a Vieira nor a Gerrard at Bordeaux.

This strategy of buying old club symbols is only a Capello strategy of collecting mercenaries.

    Yes, Vieira is not sooooo bad and IMO he will be much better next year.I want to keep him with Emerson and then buy one MC and one AMC and play the 4-3-1-2.

    If we had Maresca we could simply buy one of Riquelme or Aimar to do the job

    True, out of viera and emerson I would certainly keep viera. His a much better provider and this aint the only tie his shown that if you look at the first part of the season he was arguably one of the best DM around in serie A. He can also score goals from headers and in my eyes I think his physically stronger than emerson. We have given him one season so far, it would be only fair to give him another.

    Hell no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Emerson is so much better!
    Better fitness
    Better passing
    Better tackling
    Better teamwork
    Better discipline
    Less fouls
    Viera just always seems knackered whenever he plays, especially the last 20mins of games. But yeh, we should give him another year, remember that Thuram wasnt too impressive either in his first year:)

    Better fitness - hmm dont know for how long, Viera is younger than emerson I wont be suprised if he has a better and much fitter season next year. Although TBH ive seen time and time again in many matches where emerson is slow as a turtle. His been proberly consistently better than viera in serie A. However in europe you would proberly put your bets more on viera.
    Better passing - Disagree, yes short passes but his awful in his long passing. The whole point of having them in centre is that if worst comes to worst we may need someone to pass to teh forwards. Emerson aint the best going up whatsoever.
    Better tackling - No doubt agree there. However Viera has come from the EPL and the style of tackling there is much more aggressive.
    Better teamwork - Not by much as I said yes defensively but what we most notably lack is attacking and emerson cant do much for the fowards.

    As for on a general theme if they were both on their form and they played against each other I would most certainly say viera is much better than emerson any day. Anyway bottom line is who cares.. what we dont need at the end of the day is two friggen DM next to each other next year...
