Yup. Also his first managerial role.
You cant justify it but I guess if you cant get one of the very elite managers now we can always get a good experienced guy anytime... We pay well.I would love to know how Arteta is seen as a more suitable candidate than Jardim, who has been my #1 choice for ages. I would also love to know how the Board and Ivan accepted the fact that Mikel (assuming he's chosen) was teammates with almost half the squad just a mere two seasons ago and how that relationship was suddenly going to change? What mitigation factors were they thinking of on this risk?
Guardiola?

Vieira offers a lot of what I look for, one aspect being commanding huge respect from any player that has seen him play, or will ever see footage of him in his playing days. As much as we think we know about their credentials in other aspects, there’s still far more we don’t, and only those that play under them can reveal what they are. For example you might assume Arteta is poor at motivating or wouldn’t be as imposing in the dressing room as Vieira, but it might not turn out that way, as hard as that might be to believe!I think I've somehow talked myself into wanting Vieira. How the f*ck did that happen? He has the fabled club connection (though y'know, whatever), he'd very much unite the fans, he's an excellent speaker, motivator, man manager and leader.
If we're going young I'd rather have Nagelsmann, because he has proven himself to be good at the tactics etc, but also a consummate leader. But people are saying he's unavailable this summer. I'm a bit worried that Vieira isn't experienced enough tactically to sort out the defence and make us a solid outfit. But 100% he'd command the respect of the players and get them all interested again, he'd build momentum and belief in a common project.
I think Vieira absolutely has the confidence to walk into the training ground on the first day and make everyone believe that he's the right man to be there. Can Arteta do that?

Too soon for arteta , he was playing with the lads a couple years ago.
