    To anybody here who wouldn't change employer for twice the salary, call yourself "loyal" or "a prat" or whatever. To the rest, stfu about loyalty.

    Because he fucked wenger off with his statement.

    I'm not sure if it's been mentioned before.

    Everyone has their breaking point, wenger has been weak in too many summers with our players wanting to leave.

    Maybe he's just had enough and RVP was the breaking point.

    It's not comparable.

    There is no way we would have got £24m if wenger admitted that.

    Isn't it? I don't think it's that different to a 'real' job.

    It wasn't the statement.

    If he were that hacked off about it and wanted him go, we would have at least listened to Juve and accepted a much lower bid. Why sell him to United and then talk as if we were forced into a corner? United were the only club that met our valuation and we accepted. It was the money and if every club came in with bids below £10m, we'd have probably worked out a compromise. This was business as usual and nothing to do with being hacked off. Again, think about what Wenger said earlier in the season about whether or not RVP would be worth a massive wage increase.

    Because it's not that different and it's pretty simple. If your company is making billions each year but cutting corners with staff and paying below the going rate, you wouldn't stay.

    What makes it different is that it's the difference between £100k a WEEK and £200k a WEEK.
    How much sodding money do you need?! But humans are, by nature, greedy and if you know you could double your salary by moving jobs then most people would even if their first salary was ridiculous.
    Secondly, in my job I don't have hundreds of thousands of people idolising me. But hey, if I did and I knew that at the other job I'd have hundreds of thousands of other people idolising me then maybe I wouldn't care that much that the first hundreds of thousands of people would now boo the shit out of me.

    It's a shame though, he could have been an Arsenal legend now he's just another player who came and went when a big enough cheque was waved at them.

    Juve pulled out because they weren't able to match out asking price. RVP also was reported to not want to go there due to the troubles with the coach.

    Why should we just accept whatever pittance we get offered?

    If they did that then everyone would be moaning that we got shafted on the fee, just like last summer with cesc.

    The BBC reported that he was coming round to the idea of staying, but after he released his statement wenger didn't want him to stay, so he told him before the cologne game that he didn't feature in his plans and would be sold if his fee was met.

    Utd met the fee and that was the only club the RVP wanted to go to.
