Match Reaction - monaco 0-2 ARSENAL

[Dein-machine]

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.

But if he wanted to be part of a successful team & win trophies where do you expect him to go - Stoke! - Utd, Chelsea or City were the only options in England for him if he wanted to win things, so either way he would have joined a rival. Ofcourse we could have sold him abroad but apparently nobody wanted him for the money Utd would pay inc his salary. He won the Premier league the following year & had a great season for them. You can call him want you want but whilst we were arguing about another poxy 4th place finish & Wengers crap buys, he was parading the P.L. trophy around Manchester.

Well that's where i hold us equally responsible, if we couldn't get the money we wanted from him abroad we should have kept him another year.....Walcott was our top league goal scorer in 2012/2013 season (and we still finished fourth)....it's just possible with city and chelsea all over the place and United winning the title off the back of the rapist's goals that we could have put in a credible title challenge that season.
Van Persie is a cunt because he clearly had his agent in talks with both Manchester clubs before telling us he wasn't going to sign an extension, you equally can argue it any way you want to but if as a player you join another club in England don't expect to be appreciated by the club you leave behind. I am enjoying United's decline far more because he is on their books.
