Make him stay the year, this gives Giroud and Podolski time to bed in to the league. If necessary, sell him in 6 months time when the others have settled in. What a prick RvP is, hero to zero in seconds. How can he disagree with being in the CL again and us signing 2 international strikers. What more does he expect?? There's no way we can spend £100m nor should we.

I'll be surprised if Walcott goes as well, what team in the top 4 is going to play him as often as we do. Fuck it we have Gervinho and the Ox. I hate footballers, bunch of selfish pricks. I can see someone like Diaby having a stormer of a season and then pissing off too.

I suspect RvP and Theo were 2 that wanted to leave last season, but Wenger asked them to stay just one more in the hope they would change their minds. We should never let players go down to their last year. Even if they want to leave, make them sign but give them an assurance they can go, at least then we can get a decent price. 6 year contracts all round (apart from the dross).

Also lets be honest, what are the chances RvP will play another full season. He's 29, so its hardly like his best years are ahead of him. Good luck sitting on the bench at another club. You'll never be idolised like you were at Arsenal, what a fuck up.

sell the fuck, sell the fuck now.... we got 20£m for Nasri, I'd be happy with the same.

nob, first cesc, now this...fuck this shit

There is no point in selling for 20million, just goes into kroenkers pocket. From now in we should just trade players. If Man city want rvp, then realistically Johnson and Richards would equate to the same value. Or lescott and Johnson. Both would be more useful to us. In fact why don't we trade Walcott and rvp. Johnson, Richards, lescott and guidetti that Swedish kid that wants out. Then we buy mvila with the sale of all our dead wood combined. Sorted. If wenger isn't getting the cash then trading players is the answer aurely.

RVP would be foolish to join City. They have too many strikers. But we need City in the picture to bump up the transfer fee. There is no point in keeping him for an extra year. It's not about the money, it's the damage he'd do while at the club. I don't think he'd sulk or deliberately cause a mutiny but having him around, scoring goals, talking to the players....even if he does well and scores another ton, we all know he's off next season and his presence will always be a reminder of our failings as a club. If we're dependent on him again next season and it turns out that Poldoski and Giroud are shit..I think it would turn more players against the club.

If we aren't going to spend money on players, at least we could be more imaginative in player trading carrying out activity similar to this.

i really dont want to see the fuck playing for us next year, let alone captaining the side.

There are those risks involved in having him see out his contract. But given that he is en route to 30, after next season, how much more would we be likely to get out of him if he did sign? I wouldn't be averse to having him stay another year. But only if there was something clear from him stating the he intended to honour his contract.

That said I doubt we'll get that, in which case, we need him out the door asap so we can for better or worse concentrate on getting the team that is going to start next season prepared in order to avoid the disruption and subsequent disastrous start of last year.

i'd have balotelli and zabaleta/de jong, job done.

Ship him out. 10mil is fine. Just get him out the door, and Theo too.
