Patrick Vieira. Captain. Leader. Legend. For Arsenal fans, at least.

So when it comes to Arsenal’s big Europa League clash against Rennes, you would expect him to be fully behind the Gunners, right?

Wrong. So very, very wrong.

He is all about Rennes and Rennes going through to the next round.

Yeah, it’s true. We promise.

Speaking to the Express ahead of the Thursday night match, he said:

“I have not seen the games [Rennes vs Arsenal] but the result didn’t surprise me.

“Rennes are a really good Ligue 1 team. Offensively they are able to score against all teams in every minute of a game.

“It’s very good that they won for French football. We are all supporting Rennes and all the French teams in the Europa League.

“We hope they can qualify for the next round when they travel to London next Thursday.”

We told you it was true.
