Arsenal Roundup: Huge Injury Update, Vieira Disappointed With Arsenal And More

After a slow start, Arsenal seems to be finally track as they’ve maintained consistency over the last few weeks. The Gunners only had one point from their opening two games of the season and Arsene Wenger was heavily criticized for not spending enough in the transfer window.

Wenger addressed key issues by signing Perez and Mustafi towards the end of transfer window. The Gunners have managed to eclipse their slow start as they remained unbeaten in the league post the opening day defeat, which made them genuine contenders for the title early in the season coupled with some good football in champions league, which saw them win the group after an impressive 4-1 victory away to Swiss champions FC Basel.

Here we look at all the important news involving Arsenal.

Paris Saint Germain have reportedly opened up talks with Arsenal and Chelsea target Ricardo Rodriguez, according to RMC.

The 24-year old has been one of the best full backs in Europe and has set high standards for himself since joining Vfl Wolfsburg. He is expected to leave the club for his development next summer but PSG are keen to sign him as early as January. He has a £21million release clause and French champions are ready to activate it.

Former Arsenal midfielder Patrick Vieira has admitted about his disappointment of not starting his managerial career with Gunners as he eventually joined the ranks of Manchester City.

The French maestro has now taken as a full time manager at New York FC in the MLS in November and feels utterly disappointed with not working at Arsenal.

“It’s true that after spending nine years at Arsenal, it’s the club of my heart — the one where I played my best football — I would have liked if the door was more open to me or other players who spent time there and who would have wanted to learn their career as a coach,” Vieira told RMC on Thursday.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has admitted that he will not sell star duo Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil despite their extended contract talks for over five months.

The fans are angry with the club as they are unsure of club keeping hold of top talent as the Gunners wwere forced to sell the core of the Invincible team for more money.

Asked about the importance of proving they can now keep hold of top talent, Wenger said:”Yes, but Arsenal is a big club. It is not one or two players who will make the difference to the club. The importance is that we are today in a financial position that is strong, that was not the case before.

“That means as well we are in a position where we can plan our future, and do what we want to do. And what is important is always to take care of the values of the club, and the identity of the club, and not to depend too much on one or two players. The history of Arsenal is bigger than that.”
