Good Bye RVP!

[Power n Glory]

We have our replacement striker already. We paid £12m for him and that's probably what we'll recoup from the sale of RVP. We will probably lose Walcott next. Ox takes over from Walcott. We're not going to sign a star player this summer. We've already signed Poldoski and Giroud.

Make the fucker play with the reserves. Let's see a big club coming for him next season. We gotta do like a boss!

You are very silly.

This is exactly the sort of doing things on principle thing you so lambast Wenger for. I say we keep him and get another year out of him. We're not going to get loads for him anyway, he'll probably help us qualify for the CL again which would earn us more than we'd get and the fans would soon come round once he scored a couple, we're stupid like that.

Bearing that in mind, does anyone here feel comfortable with him and the club agreeing that he sees out his contract?

Probably....it's a very old-fashioned way of looking at it, but a lot of players used to do that, didn't they? Just see out their contracts. I think it was ever since Sol Campbell whittled down his contract at Spurs and decided to join us that fans suddenly thought, "hang on, these guys are no better than mercenaries!"

A change of heart seems near improbable now. However, given his history with injuries, I think even one extra year with van Persie helps the club's cause more than it does his.

Yes. I don't think he's the type to sulk around the place (I may be wrong about that)
And the fans are fickle enough to cheer him when he starts scoring, which he would.
Strip him of the captaincy, obviously, but unless we get a silly offer for him, and we won't, then I say keep him.

[Grebbo]

Personally I hope he goes because I think him staying for another year would bring on far too much scrutiny. We did it with Flamini but he was a no mark.

I don't expect RVP to just sit around and sulk however what if his form were to drop? The fans and media would be all over him like a rash. The fact he's captain as well, it wouldn't send out the right message in my books.

The same is true if he signed a 4 yr deal with us on £200k per week and lost his form/got injured.

If we can't get decent money for him we must not sell him.

He isn't on holiday. The statement is full of shit and so is he.

I think gazidis has been on his holidays since he started at our club. The guy is so far out of his depth. If man city are tapping up our players and getting them to refuse to sign contracts then maybe we should get some evidence and do something about it instead of sitting back. I think arsenal fc need to make an example of rvp and keep him against his will. Sod 20million. If man city want him they either give us 40million or throw in hart, Richards and Johnson.

I dont just blame Gazidis although he is clearly useless. This is a board thing and he just happens to be the Chief Executive. The owner has decided we dont compete in the transfer market. We have always been crap at keeping our best players and I think Wenger's arrogance has a lot to do with it. We let Ashely Cole go cos Wenger told the board that Clichy would be as good. And look what happened - Cole went on to be the best left back in the world whilst Clichy is ordinary.
