“I really believe he will be one of the best managers in the next few years,” said former midfielder Vieira.
“He has been successful, he went to Swansea and from player to manager he is doing really well, and of course that is showing us that you can do it
“I am not surprised at all because he knows what he wants, he knows how he wants the team to play and his man-management is really good. I think he has the skill to be one of the best because he’s really calm, he’s really focused and his work ethic is fantastic.”
“Talking to Monk was really interesting because as an ex-player going to a managerial role, what was his first step, what was the message he sent to the players, what is his first focus on?” said Vieira, who was attending a FAW national coaching conference in Newport.
“Those are the kind of details that are really important, because one day we all want to go through to that situation.
“It doesn’t matter which level you played, it doesn’t matter which career you had, you can still do it. He’s a really good example for all of us on the course.”
