Arsenal legend Robert Pires showered praises on Arsenal target Marouane Fellaini. ‘Everybody knows Marouane Fellaini in the Premier League,’ he was quoted. ‘Of course last season it was very, very difficult, the relation with Jose Mourinho. But I think he’s a good player, if he wants to join Arsenal I think it would be good news. He needs a new start and I think, with his quality, I think he can help Unai Emery and he can help the Arsenal players in the squad,’ he added.
Meanwhile, former Real Madrid and Barcelona star Luis Figo has urged his compatriot Cristiano Ronaldo to stay at the Bernabeu since the Galacticos have given him a lot – both individually and as a team – and that he wouldn’t be able to repeat such feats in any other club.
