Good Bye RVP!

[gooners]

So you're effectively saying, we should have bowed down to RVP, who publicly aired an opposing view to our manager, and then double his dollar?

Yeah, thats what i mean


And that's what actually happened in rooneys case, utd bowed to him

[LDG]

Yeah, thats what i mean


And that's what actually happened in rooneys case, utd bowed to him

Yes. Exactly.

And you're saying we should have done the same?

[gooners]

Yes. Exactly.

And you're saying we should have done the same?

Sarcasm lost on you too? Oh well

[Syn]

Yeah, thats what i mean


And that's what actually happened in rooneys case, utd bowed to him

Well, yeah.

They offered him a massive contract not far off what he could've got at Man City.

Offering Van Persie a contract we couldn't afford would be conceding the battle. But keeping Van Persie for his final year wouldn't have meant bowing down to him because he wouldn't have benefited in any way.

Yes. Originally, the clubs response was that he has a contract and he will honour ot as the professional he is. We are also to believe that he actually came around looking at the signings made so far --- but he was sold anyway to our rival. People are actually cheering that. But then he was sold because we were looking to balance the books.

Yet he is the greedy one? The farking irony. De ja vu

We were never going to keep RVP after his statement. All this "we'll keep him til the end of hs contract" BS is the same as last years "we cant be called a big club if we sell Cesc and Nasri". I dont believe much of what comes out of Arsenal these days so i sure as hell didnt believe that. Looks like you did. History suggests you shouldnt have.

As for RVP coming around after the signings we made, too little too late. We had moved on. Pre season was nearly over and all through it we prepared for a season without the **** so when the **** decided to stay, if he did, he was rightly told to fuck off and i respect the club for that. Who does RVC think he is thinking he can make a statement like he does pushing for a move and then deciding he wants to stay? The club decides if he goes or stays and we made the decision. Only time will tell if its wrong or right but atm, it sure as hell feels right.

Ideally he wouldnt have been sold to Man Utd. Wenger himself has come out and said he'd have rather have sold to PSG or Juve than Man Utd but neither offered what we wanted. Man Utd did and from ive read, RVP only wanted to go there to partner Rooney in a so called dream strike force.

We got the best deal we could from a One Season Wonder ****. That doesnt make us greedy, that makes us sensible. Thats not to say we arent greedy. Ive posted til im blue in the face about everything wrong with the board and manager as others will testify but thats another story.

[gooners]

The worst thing is that the players we should be selling will still be with us likeu saggy flesh on a fat woman whose crash dieted come september 1st. Cos the economics graduate put them on stupid wages, well done wenger.......you should work in the banks, they like handing out economic incentives to their staff for fuck all.

Good post.

[GP]

Yes. Exactly.

And you're saying we should have done the same?

Nonsense innit?

[LDG]

Sarcasm lost on you too? Oh well

Not only the sarcasm.

[gooners]

Nonsense innit?

Yes, alex ferguson bowed to rooney! Unbelievable some of the things that get said on here.

[Herbert_Chapman's_Zombie]

Well, yeah.

They offered him a massive contract not far off what he could've got at Man City.

Offering Van Persie a contract we couldn't afford would be conceding the battle. But keeping Van Persie for his final year wouldn't have meant bowing down to him because he wouldn't have benefited in any way.

The club is run like it's in administration sometimes, 24m would be a lot of money if we were in anyway prepared to invest the money....but because we are saddled with a massive wage bill because no-one on the board has the guts to tell Arsene he fucked up royally in case he gets in a strop and leaves. Honestly the more I hear about how Wenger manages the team, the more i think he guy is a cancer. There is next to nothing in the way of tactical nous or defensive coaching, no-one dares question the guy on his approach......he is basically a revered autocrat because of what he achieved in the past.
