Podolski's here already and is a natural No.9. We shouldn't be fooled at him playing on the left for Germany, its just that Klose and Gomez are higher in the pecking order for CF, Pod will be brilliant there for us if and when he plays there.
As long as you get a decent replacement. Look at Atletico, Aguero gone, Falcao in.
Looking at Nasri's situation last year, Nasri said he wanted to leave at the start of the summer. Wenger wanted to keep him even on the last year of his contract, after admitting that 'you cannot be a big club if you sell 2 of your best players' in the same summer, rumblings/rumours of a disagreement with the board, Stan flew in and Nasri went. So I think RVP already made his mind up a long time ago and has been gagged while we're trying to get the best offers and renew those season tickets, preferably abroad than to City, RVP just spoke of Juve being a great team.
I rather hope he re-signs rather then resigns.Quote:

Arsenal chairman Peter Hill-Wood has revealed that Arsenal will not break the bank to keep hold of star player Robin van Persie.
The Dutch hitman has been in imperious form this season, notching an impressive tally of 30 Premier League goals on his way to becoming PFA and FWA Player of the Year, and has attracted interest from champions Manchester City, Italian giants Juventus and wealthy Russian club Anzhi Makhachkala.
The forward still has one year remaining on his contract at the Emirates, but despite holding contract talks with manager Arsene Wenger before reporting for Euro 2012 international duty with the Netherlands, the 29-year-old's future still remains unclear.
“He is vital to us and has been an extremely good captain,” Hill-Wood told The Sun.
“But if somebody comes along and offers Robin Ł250,000 a week then I am afraid we cannot compete with that.
“With players, you never know what they are going to do.
“Some players say they want silverware but when they have the chance to earn *extraordinary money that has been pumped into the game, then you just have to hope they will stay *because they are happy and loyal where they are."
Van Persie joined the Gunners back in 2004 for just Ł2.5 million and has since taken the mantle after the departure of Arsenal legend Thierry Henry, and although Hill-Wood insists he will not make alterations to the club's strict wage structure to keep the Dutchman, he is hoping Van Persie's loyalty will be rewarded with a Premier League winner's medal next season.
“There are players like Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes at Manchester United who have been loyal to one club but players like that are few and far between," he added.
“Hopefully we can reach *agreement with Robin and ideally he will extend his contract.
“We have already brought in one new player in Lukas *Podolski and I believe we will bring in more. I am confident we will, in fact.
“I just hope that Robin will be with us next season because I genuinely feel we can make a real challenge for the *Premier League title.
“We had an atrocious start to last season but we recovered to finish third which was a marvellous achievement when you look at the problems that we had with *injuries.”
Hes gone
The loyalty cr*p PHW comes out with is just that, Giigs and Scholes have been loyal but they've been winning trophies regularly, bit harder to be loyal to a team with no chance of winning.
As for PL winners medal :lol: what planet does this guy live on :lol:
He's so out of touch it's unbelievable. He's like one of those old school High Tories like Harold MacMillan.

He's already shown that he's past it judging by yesterday's game, tbh. It's time to cash in. :coffee:
PHW hasn't said much that's out of line. It's what we expect and I doubt anyone here would say RVP is worth Ł250k a week. We can't compete with that. The only questionable thing is the part about players saying they want silverware but end up going for money. I don't like the fact that he's openly questioning Robin's integrity and motives. If Robin can't talk to the press then none of our reps should speak about it either. It's the sort of message that could turn the fans against RVP and people assume he's asking for crazy wages. At least his Dad has come out and said he's not moving to City or another Prem team. Somebody from his camp has to clear up the crazy rumours if we have people from our own camp leaking and suggesting nonsense. This is why I'm so suspicious of the gag order placed on him.
hold on a minute, don't you bang on about ambition and the clubs apparent lack of it? surely those comments show he wants the player to stay and win a trophy here.Quote:

The best thing is for PHW to never speak I think.
RVP. :lol:
I remember him.
Empty comments mean jack sh*t to be honest and those very much are, noone in their right minds can think we have a chance, not without some investment in the playing side, something we never see.Quote:

His comments are hardly encouraging, we won't break our wage structure, so basically RVP isn't worth it, if he wants to stay it's to be loyal....not for any other reason (that's what PHW seems to think). Why would you stay loyal to a team without a hope of winning when you're reaching the latter stages of your best days and bigger clubs are hovering?
He's a deluded old man who should have retired a long long time ago, it's a real shame we're stuck with this guy.

Pretty muchQuote:

Doesnt make sense
So apparently, the only way one can want arsenal to be better is by constant negativity and wenger bashing and the ones who don't do that are mugs?. :shrugs:
Wenger has shown over many years now he's not able to make us successful any more, we could ignore the problems just like Wenger has for years but they don't go away.
He's one of the problems whether you like it or not, a lot of the problems are basically linked to him and his management.
so arsenal are all about trophies to you and nothing else?Quote:

Arsene Wenger has reiterated that Robin van Persie will stay at Arsenal and sees no reason why the striker would want to join Juventus.
Van Persie only has 12 months remaining on his contract and Wenger had previously been hoping to resolve his captain's future before Euro 2012.
An agreement was not reached before Van Persie headed off on Netherlands duty and there is continued speculation that he will leave Emirates Stadium this summer.
Premier League champions Manchester City have been linked with last season's top scorer, but the 28-year-old's father recently stated it is 'impossible' for him to join one of Arsenal's domestic rivals.
Spanish giants Barcelona and Real Madrid have also been mooted as admirers of Van Persie, but reports have claimed Juventus hold the strongest interest in the player.
The Serie A champions are aiming to sign a high-profile striker ahead of next season, but Wenger does not expect Van Persie to head to Italy.
"He will stay at Arsenal," Wenger told the Italian newspaper La Repubblica.
"There is no reason why a top player, a big champion would want a move to Serie A - in terms of the prestige of the league, the level of play or financial considerations.
"If he moves there, I will buy you a caramello."

Gotta love it. Wenger certainly knows how to shit all over a league :lol:
cheap ****! a caramello?!
He must have more confiscated chocolate bars than that.

Will we see contract talks continue?
