Pires on Vieira staying
Robert Pires has admitted he cannot wait to link up again with Vieira in an Arsenal shirt. "Of course, I am really pleased Patrick is staying with us. He is the best in the world in his position," said Pires. "When you have the opportunity to go to Real Madrid, it is logical and normal to take your time to make your decision."
“在后腰这个位置上，维埃拉是最强的。任何球员如何有机会加盟皇马，那的确是需要时间好好考虑一下的。”
"If Patrick had signed for Real Madrid, I would respect his decision. But I am so happy that he decided to stay and that he will be wearing the same club shirt as me," Pires told the London Evening Standard newspaper.
“即使维埃拉选择签约皇马，我也尊重他的决定。很高兴现在他已经决定留下了，我们又可以并肩作战了。”
