Vieira Wants Answers

I think we all want to know the answer to this....story from football365.com...Patrick Vieira will reportedly ask Arsene Wenger this week whether the Gunners want to sell him to Juventus or Real Madrid.

The Frenchman is said by The Sun to be 'completely bemused' at reports that Arsenal are looking to offload him this summer, with Juventus rumoured to have offered £5m and midfielder Stephen Appiah for his services.

The Italian club have denied having talks with Arsenal about Vieira, but reports in Italy say that they will be back with a bid of £15m plus defender Jonathan Zebina and midfielder Enzo Maresca.

But Juve director general Luciano Moggi said in L'Equipe: "There have never been any negotiations over Vieira. I went to London for other players, not Vieira. Yes, I met with Arsene Wenger, but that's because he's a friend of mine - not to discuss Vieira's transfer."

But The Sun says that Vieira wants to hear it from the horse's mouth and will demand answers from Wenger.

"Patrick Vieira will reportedly ask Arsene Wenger......" - says it all really. And yet another wildly speculative rumour hits the 'net as "truth"! Bet you've made one nobody feel very big today.

Well maybe we should just cash in on him. He's not getting any younger and for the majority of last season he was awful. Always seemed to go missing in most of the big games which used to be his best performances. Call me cynical but he only stayed because Real wouldn't pay him as much as the top earners and he regretted it, which reflected in his performances. That said, he's been a fantastic servant to the club and I would bear a grudge if he moved on.
