rvp is a cunt and I don't miss him.
NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.
No - RVP got pissed off with the constant promises from Wenger that we would buy quality to compete. Don't blame him or Cesc for what they did, they couldn't continue to carry a team full of average players or wait for Wengers basement buys to turn into Prince Charming.
I don't mind someone like Nasri leaving tbf
RvC is different because he was a crocked cunt for 7 seasons
We pimped him out to Utd. We didn't want to turn down the money and let him walk on a free. We had ultimate say on which club he could go to.
Apparently the board put a clause in the RvC deal that if he won the league at United, we'd get more £££![]()
If our manager was promising him things that he had no intention of providing ie other top quality players to help compete, then I really don't think RVP has to worry about insulting Wenger. Players that have left us have all gone on to win trophies whilst we continued our annual battle for 4th - don't blame them in the slightest. Their decisions mean they will retire with many trophies & winning memories to share with their granchildren unlike most of our players over the past decade.
I repeat the issue is in joining United, Van Persie joined United to double his bank balance if it was just about winning things he could have gone abroad so he is a cunt.
Don't get me wrong we are just as bad for selling him to them.
I'm sure Van Persie will share his treasured memories of being on remand in a police cell in Ansterdam for weeks as well.
Now that's funny. Why do you say he'd be going for trophies if he went abroad? If we'd had shipped him to PSG as intended, wouldn't that prove more so that he was looking for a pay rise more than anything else?
Wenger admitted he wanted to sell him abroad to PSG but they weren’t interested and then his buddy Fergie twisted his arm to make the deal happen. It’s a shady deal because before RVP even said anything to the press, PHW was talking about not being able to match the wages Man City could offer him. Had we even offered him a contract at that point and discussed wages? Let’s not forget Wenger’s comments way before the summer about offering a massive contract to player passing his prime at 30.
It sounded like we were trying to entice City to make a bid because we’ve pimped our players out to them before and we can use the old ‘mercenary’ player argument. When that didn’t work, we were hoping PSG would stump up the cash because Juve certainly weren’t. But in comes Utd!
Back to the contract discussions. If this was another dispute about pay, why in the world couldn’t we offer him a better deal? We must have known we had the new sponsorship deals on the table. We splashed good money on Ozil the following season. So if he wanted to double his wages, why couldn’t we? Or at least tell him to hold tight for a season and we’d come back to him with a solid offer knowing that we have these new sponsorship deals on the table. I mean, shit, the following season Gazidis was talking that talk about us being able to afford a player like Rooney and ‘do things that will excite you.’
