Not impressed with him issuing a public statement - massively weakens our negotiating position.

Let's get the deal done with city and move on. Take the £20million or whatever we can get and invest in Fellaini please wenger.

He'll go to City, and if he does the fans will treat him like a mercenary.

If he goes abroad, the fans will have some apathy towards him.

Oh and from my sig, the tosser from Talk sport was right :lol:

I'd rather take the £8m from Juventus.

me too

cheers for last season robin - that covered your transfer fee at least. good luck wherever you go.

At the end of the day, he was our captain so him leaving was inevitable.

I believe our new captain should be Mister Chamakh.

I agree. I just cant believe the way fans on here slag off Wenger and the board the whole season and then when RVP does the inevitable he is slaughtered. I have no sympathy for the board - they have one of the world's richest men itching to get on and yet they dont wanna know. I also t hink that RVP ( like Fabregas) knows that Wenger is a busted flush and we wont win anything major again under him

We won't get anything near that for him.

The Club need to make it clear (and stick to it) that either he is seeing out his contract or get him out the door immediately. We just can't have the same shit we had last year.

Because of his injury record and his age, his value is nowhere near the sums a lot of people believe. This in a perverse way is good for the Club because there is less to lose financially by making him see his contract out.

The 2nd one wasn't 'soft', it was farcical, possibly corrupt. You're cherry picking a few bad games here and there to support an argument which doesn't stack up. There is absolutely no way we'd have finished top 4 last year without him. Can we do so without him? It'll be tough but the new signings are good and we've got time to make more signings so we've got a chance.

The new signings did worry me. I hoped they were an attempt to show Robin we're trying to show a bit of ambition but I feared they were because we knew he was going. Part of me thinks we should keep him this year. We won't get loads for him anyway, I don't think he'll sulk his way through the season and I think we'll qualify for the CL next season with him which would be worth more than we'd get for him anyway. It also buys us time to think about more replacements. But the mood on here suggests his position would be difficult. That said, we are a load of fickle twats - a couple of goals and we'd be singing his name again.
