the news is not on either the Juventus or Arsenal official site yet, so I advice you wait for the clubs to announce it first.

i believe Arsenal will regret this sale, if its true. Viera was(or is) like a steal in thier midfield, and he is the only reason they dominate the midfield when they play some teams.

well next is Pires , then Cole and then Reyes. Nwga , exodus begin.

That's actually good for arsenal, paddy is on the decline, i watched him closely last season, and the role he played during the colegate, sending that text mail urging cole to ask for more money, that's was not cool. This is good business for arsenal, the problem i have with it, is why let edu go for nothing, when you wanted to sell paddy? Edu is a serious baller, but wenger got someone really good coming in, just watch the next few days.[/list]

Watch him walk straight to Juve's starting 11, decline for where ? Viera is not using fake age, he still got atleast 5 yrs of football left in him. Viera will show what he's capable of in Juve. he will go out to prove to Wenger that he made a mistake.

...and someone will come in to prove he is as good or better, this is football business, arsenal payed 3.5 mill for him, and after 8 years, selling him 15 mill, that's not bad at all. The only way i will regret this move is if wenger does not bring in some one really good and young to make immidiate impact.

so if Henry turns 30 and he start to lose a step or two u will support the idea of selling him too ? Soccer is not a blind business, how come Milan didnot sell Maldini ? Real still keep their captain, Man U still keep their captain too even though he's old. You have to keep some players even if they are on top of their game anymore cos they represent the team. Inter still keep Zanetti, selling ur captain for 15M is beyond funny, it's a shame to Arsenal.

come, come, come, u guys should stop rough play oh!, its bad enough they told Kanu to leave, but Viera would be a hugh loss

[Plandeyala]

mastermind, I agree with you. If they sell him, it will be a long time before they win the Prem again. In short they should forget the Prem in the next 5 years

Hahahahahaha! Una don sabi pass Arsene Wenger.

BTW! Kolo Toure can play there and he may just be the man. No matter what, Wenger has a replacement lined up.

[lowzeewee]

Wenger has a replacement lined up.

You referring to all those truckloads of Beveren-ians streaming in into the training ground?

Are you talking about a certain Ne from Bevern.....

He impressed at the Amsterdam tounament last year, dont be surprised if he is signed as cover for whoever is bought to replace PV4.

I also think that (insert random unheard-of Ivorian name) will be signed and turned from a raw gem into a diamond ala George Weah. I read in Wenger's autobiography that when Weah came to AS Monaco from Liberia, he used to trip over the ball during training sessions.

This shows how little u know.

Pat sending texts to Cole just shows ho wgood of a captain and guardian he is. It shows he looks out for the welfare of his teammates.

Also, it shocks me that u do not know the consequence of loosing pat. The fact remains that Arsenal dominate most teams on the middle becus of pats physical appraoch to defending and attacking.

Decline??? ha ha ha ha .. we will seee. Dont forget the italian league is much slower than the EPL.

I said before I'll say it again you don't know what you have until it's gone.

I made my views on PV4 exit very clear and now let the chips fall where they may.

I will wait to see whom we sign and than make a more indepth post.

Vieira will be be king at Juve though that is one thing I know as Italy is not the high paced manic style that is the EPL.

[mastermind]

at age 39, Zola and Baggio still had a good season in seria A. Viera will still play for more than 6 yrs before he fall off. Viera should have left 2 yrs ago, Arsenal doesn't deserve him, they are too cheap and business minded, they don't appreciate their players.

Hahahahahaha! Una don sabi pass Arsene Wenger.

Waffi, Kolo Toure is your answer to Paddy? ... now I know you done lost it

I doubt Kolo moves to CM, odds are we will sign another CM.

I know that Toure was a midfielder before Wenger converted him into a defender but to recklessly throw his name around as a potential replacement of Patrick Viera is real funny.... Waffi must have been joking when he wrote that post... na di only thing wey make sense.

Well unless with sign another CB I do not see how we can use Kolo as a CM. As of today our CB's are Sol, Senderos, Kolo and (Lord help us) Cygan, putting Kolo as CM would be a stupid risk as if Kolo gets hurt playing CM that means Cygan is our first CB off the bench.

That's the point I've been trying to make. Selling PV without adequate cover leaves you 10MP richer but with 2 big holes to fill. The only way to get around it is spending money... unless... Wenger is not looking to win any serious trophies this season. I guess since he won FA cup last year he believes that that was a successful season.... in spite of pulling up 12 pts behind the league leaders. We know he's long conceeded the ECL... the question to answer is whether he's conceeding the league.... actions speak louder than words. While Mourihno is stock piling players, Wenger is selling players & stock piling cash... the $60million (soon to be $75million - Hleb's cost) was not meant to sit cooly in a Barclays account.

We'd have to be crazy
NIGEL WINTERBURN says Arsenal would be “crazy” to sell Patrick Vieira to Juventus.
The Highbury legend admits he is stunned the North London club are even thinking about flogging the French international.....

ets all congratulate this muppet for giving Juventus a central midfield partnership of:
Vieira/Emerson

that will be so difficult to break through along with the tactical genius of their coach Capello.

Wenger... we salute you(!). [reply] [Complain about this post]

Emerson eh, who's to say that Vieira isn't just part of a deal that will see Arsenal sign Emerson. A little bit of cash + Paddy and maybe he's on his way. On the other hand he's not, but hey, never mind, we'll find someone. [reply] [Complain about this post]

Let us laugh at Juve as they are effectivley buying us Shaun Wright-Phillips.
Vieira has 2 yrs left and his best has already gone.

IAN WRIGHT was the legend of Highbury

SWP Will be the first legend born at the Emirates Stad

[juventuss]

hehe... I wonder if Wenger has something up his sleeves.. Viera/ Emerson naa correct combo any day.. Choi...

Waffiman I admire your spirit if Arsenal sell half the squad without buying replacement you will still be the most enthusiastic Gunner. Thats a real fan. As for me, I want that 30 million spent.
