Patrick Vieira joins Manchester City's £100,000 club
Four and a half years since leaving England, the man whose clashes with Roy Keane came to epitomise Arsenal's rivalry with Manchester United will join the growing band of players at City to be paid in excess of £100,000-a-week, initially on a six-month contract but with the option of another year written into the terms.

FFS, all of my Arsenal shirts are playing for Citeh...except for Bartholomew...who is complete pants.
Here's hoping Paddie does in a few other teams and helps Arsenal to the title.
I am extremely ambivalent about this. I love the guy to death. I mean, I named my first-born child Vieira, for Christ sake. OK, not really. But do I want him to do well at Citeh? And if he does and goes to South Africa does he still have the goods to perform there? Or will he lead Les Blues to another flop?
Prediction: He barely sees action in Manchester, fails to play in SA and ends up in the middle east.
Sanford, we all know the Vieira you named you son after is Meredith. This whole thing is gross. The salary is beyond absurd, and there are too many great central midfielders in the France pool right now for him to get the call.
