(The general sentiment on RvP...)
Last season RvP was my hero because he was banging in the goals for my beloved AFC.
Now he's leaving I hope he and his family die a slow and agonising death in a Nazi concentration camp.
The Germans are renowned for their efficiency. Nobody said it had to be slow.Quote:

Sounds like BS. He's not gonna live up norf when he retires in a few years time so would think he'd rent like a lot of players.
There's probably good value investing in a top house up north right now. By the time he retires it might've earned him a tidy profit. But I agree the story is probably bullshit.
Agreed. Fuck van Persie, fuck his stinking, sub-human filth, bowel dwelling, isn't dead yet but hopefully will die in prolonged agony soon, whore agent. Podolski got the chance to come here and he just signed the fucking contract. Job done. He wants to be here, so we have something in common with the guy. Let's talk about him.Quote:

It's a myth. The Germans have put up with Europe for a long time now, for instance.Quote:

If this is true I would rather we stick him in the reserves for a year and let him leave on a free tbh. He'll be nearer to 32 then.
If RVP really wants to move to United there's no way Fergie will sign him as their top earner with Rooney, he's not a mug.
I'd just get rid of him ASAP get as much money as we can and then watch him get back to the normal Van-Persie on the treatment table for 6 months :)
If the only options are strengthening one of the Manc teams then we definitely are not in the position of cutting off our nose to spite our face if he rots with us and puts off strengthening them for a year
Balls in our court and if we sell to City or Manure, then the money we get needs to spent this summer strengthening the team. I'd be pissed if we sold to our rivals and then banker flyer profits. We might as well have just sold to Juve onside accepted their bid in that case. Doesn't matter that the fee is low. No point in talking about the greed in football and then selling him to our rivals because they bid the most. Whore behaviour on the clubs part if we let that happen.
^Yeah.
Selling Van Persie to our direct rivals would be unforgivable really. Imagine a Rooney Van Persie striking partnership? Fucking hell.
Some would say Manc clubs arent our direct rivals
And some would be right
1st City
2nd United
3rd Arsenal
Our rivals, idiot.
Yup it's not too complicated to understand. We might be well away from the level of the Manchester clubs but if we want to close the gap we can't sell them our best player. If the club show the stubborn (and, imo, admirable) principles they preach, they won't give rvp to man city or man utd even if they are the ones offering the best offers. If he leaves for them on a free next year, that's his business. But we shouldn't let that happen this year.
:gp: That's exactly how I feel - why strengthen them this season - let him go on a free.Quote:

if he stays and gets us into the top 3/4 then that's worth much more than £15m and also sends a message out to players that we won't always be held to ransom. rvp will be 30 next year, who will pay him £200k a week then?
in fact the dilemma he faces next year trying to find a new club makes me smile with delight. take that you ungrateful prick.
very interesting piece on rvp and his current match winning ability compared to every top premier striker you can think of.

So we need him more than he needs us. That puts us in a bad position.Quote:

I don't know how we'll cope without him next season but we'll probably have to reshape the team a little given everything was geared towards getting the best out of RVP.
Shit stabbing bastard.
What is a 'pomp' anyway?
No idea.
the team has been set up to play for rvp, who is/was obviously our best player left after cesc. as the stats in the article reminds us, 60% of those in that top 10 never went on to win the title. with a more evenly talented team if rvp leaves, then that should hopefully mean the scoring workload is shared.Quote:

I hope so. We don't want someone scoring 40 goals and then thinking they're too big for the club. Poldi and Giroud to get 20 each would be nice.Quote:

I know it's twitter, but there are a few places starting to report that rvp is considering a u-turn and signing a new deal.
The reason: cazorla and Sahin.
