Personally admire Tevez the player and i respect Tevez the man, for showing the determination and professionalism few others did.
I wish we had such players too!
he he, i was just jk-ing and trying to tease any possible Manure fans.
But Vieira was slowly growing older and start losing his pace and tenacity.
Arsenal sold him at the right time! On the other hand, we missed the opportunity to get him last year, when he was not that important to them.
I am not sure, but i have the impression that Alonso's role in the team has been slightly improved this year and having shown some better and more consistent performances, his transfer value and the interest on him has been increased,
making him a less probable target for the used to be Italian giants...
And i dont remember our Capello claiming that Vieira was too slow and doesnt fit his formation like CR was ordered to say...
