PHOTO:Arsenal legend Patrick vieira feels Wenger has 'lost his eyes for quality', as regard buying players to the emirate club

According to report, Former Arsenal and Manchester City player, Patrick Vieira has added his voice to those criticizing Arsene Wenger policy on youth and big money signings; saying the manager has been bringing in the wrong sets of players to the club.

Arsenal who have struggled in their two opening games at the start of the new season, giving to some injuries to key players (mostly defenders), are under serious pressure from the fans and ex players to land big money signings to match the likes of Manchester city, Manchester United and their London rivals of Chelsea and Spurs, if they truly want to win the league this time...of course is possible!!...

Vieira while giving his views on the poor start of Arsenal to the current season, was quoted to have said:
‘My generation had lots of physically strong players. In this last five or six years, Arsenal went more with this type of technical players.


‘The Invincibles had it all. For me, it was like the French national team in 1998, when we had physical players with flair, with pace, it was a similar team.

‘Now when I watch Arsenal, yes they play good football, but I just have a feeling they are missing something – the physical presence, the personality.’

Vieira also criticised Arsenal’s failure to incorporate more of its former players onto the club’s coaching staff.

Vieirahas worked at Manchester City since 2011 and the former midfielder believes Arsenal need to afford more former players similar opportunities.

 ‘I’m disappointed not to have ex- Arsenal players working at Arsenal,’ he said.

‘It is good for the young players who could see a Thierry Henry, a Ljungberg, a Sol Campbell or a Keown who have been at the club a good few years working in the academy, or working somewhere. I think they can do it a bit more.

‘Players want to do it but do not have the opportunity. I don’t understand it. The perfect example is Ajax.

 ‘You see all the old players working for the club, on the field, in the office – the door is always open for them – but Arsenal don’t do it and I don’t know why.’
