Sylvain Wiltord has said that Arsenal should allow Vieira to leave !
The Mirror quote Wiltord saying, “After giving five years of his life to the club, Patrick wants something
new and I don’t think they should force him to stay. I heard that he wanted to leave but he is one of the key players there so it is not obvious that he will.”
What an idiot Wiltord is!Even if he thinks that he should not say it !
Wiltord is employed to train, play football and represent the club. Arsenal should fine him for saying Vieira should be allowed to leave.
Where was Wiltord for the last two Premiership games? Did he really go out clubbing in Moscow the night before the Spartak game, which Arsenal lost 4-1 ?
He says he doesn’t know what the club intends to do with him.That comment suggests to me that Wenger wants to keep Kanu, but not Wiltord.
The first thing Arsenal should do is tell him to shut his mouth about Vieira.
The second is to flog him for £8 million. Take the loss! Just unload him!
With Jeffers, Henry, Bergkamp and Kanu, plus Graham Barrett and Jermaine Pennant, Arsenal do not need anybody as flaky as Wiltord in their squad.
