£8m? :lol:
When he played, Rvp was consistently one of the most productive players in the Premiership. Taken on a per game basis his record stood comparison with any of his contempories. In fact, the figures suggested that, were he ever to put a full season together, he would be better than any of them. Though dubious at the time this season has proved that prediction to be spot on. He's hit a purple patch in fitness, that's all, because with regards to his performance level his patch has always been purple.Quote:

I'd prefer those sorts of forwards compared to flat track bullies like RVP.
Bringing facts to a GW thread is like bringing an atom bomb to a fist fight
I especially like this bit.Quote:

Arsenal chairman Peter Hill-Wood has rejected any possibility of the club selling star striker Robin van Persie.
Manchester City are reported to be heavily interested in the Dutch forward, who has only one year left on his Gunners contract.
However, the Emirates Stadium chairman has revealed that there has been no offers tabled for the Premier League's top goalscorer, nor would the club be interested in entertaining any bids.
“As far as I am aware nobody has made any offer for him and he is away so we are not in any dialogue at all,” Hill-Wood told reporters.
“We're not in the remotest bit interested in selling him.”
Reports suggest the 28-year-old Van Persie, who endured a disappointing Euro 2012 with Netherlands, is stalling on a £130,000-per-week deal.
Real Madrid and Barcelona have also been linked with the Arsenal man, but City are reportedly leading the queue for his signature, having already made contact with agent Kees Vos.
Manager Arsene Wenger also seemed to rule Van Persie out of a possible move to Juventus after denouncing the "low-level" nature of Italian football in comparison to the Premier League.
Hill-Wood's previous admission that Arsenal wouldn't break the bank to keep Van Persie in north London appeared to fuel yet more speculation, but the English champions' are also pursuing a similar stance.
Hes gone
Every time this fat fuck opens his filthy mouth, we lose a player. Should just shoot himselfQuote:

ARSENE WENGER has vowed to do everything in his power to keep Robin van Persie at Arsenal.
The Dutch striker, 28, is entering into the final year of his contract at the Emirates and has been heavily linked with a move away from the club.
Manchester City and Juventus are both hot on the heels of prolific forward, who finished top scorer in the Premier League last season with 30 goals.
Gunners boss Wenger said: “We want to keep Robin van Persie at all costs — because we depend on him offensively.
“I have always supported him even in the hardest times, and I hope he will end his career at Arsenal.”
Wenger wants Van Persie to link up with summer signings Lukas Podolski and Olivier Giroud in a devastating three-pronged attack.
Giroud did not enjoy the best tournaments at Euro 2012 with France but comes off the back of a terrific season in Ligue 1, where his 21 goals helped Montpellier to the title.
Wenger added: “I have known Olivier Giroud for some time.
“The first time I saw him, I found he had something intelligent and dangerous. I always said he could score goals and assist his partners.
“Our game is based on co-operation between the players in the offensive phase and he will integrate easily.
“I don’t like simple goalscorers, they must also add to the collective. He is good in the air which is rare. He is quite complete and has a great room for improvement.”
So hes looking to play all 3?
Now now, that was for PHW, dont go all ILT on yourself :ilt:Quote:
