Vinny joins Anderlecht as player/manager (Simon Davies follows him)

[1.618034]

Going to Anderlecht as player manager is perfect.

Obviously he’ll never be as good at it as the Norwegian Paper-Boy but hey, he can but try!

Sorry to see him go, but we knew it was coming and probably got a season more than we expected.

Would have liked him to have stayed within the City family, maybe New York like Lampard and Vierra, but to go back to his home most be amazing for him and his family get a brand new experience, and you know he'll look after a few City loanees.

In the words of Gary Neville, were is the statue going?

I think he’ll go back to Anderlecht

Good call!

Good luck Vinny and thanks for everything you did for our great club.

We wouldn't have managed it without you.

Wishing Vinny all the best for the future, Anderlecht will be the 1st result we look for after City.

 

[Uwe's Legend]

Anderlecht's fan base has just increased substantially.

Good luck Vinny.

Gives us a chance at any decent Anderlecht players as well!

What an intro.

Impossible to post without repeating what has been said many times. There was only two realistic outcomes, a one year extention or vexit (sorry), he chose the right one imo, like I expected. It may be a bit twee to suggest, but the players would be fully aware and put in even more effort to ensure the perfect send-off. Personally, I would hope he does not join the ranks of TV pundits, I have little respect for them , or the job they do.
With his charisma, he would make a powerful ambassador, or politician when he bows out of playing. Possibly the greatest signing we have ever made........
