We wanted Van Persie, for the same reason we want Kane, age doesn’t matter when you’re as lethal as them. He also turns 28 in a few weeks, I know it sounds better quoting him as older. We didn’t win the European cup though, maybe that was the missing link? Maybe it got telling that teams that prepared for the false 9 faired very well against us in the end. It was a great tactic, should never be plan A though. We want a striker, Khaldoon said we want a striker, yet you know best.
Yet you seem fluent in it. You want to replace our record goal scorer with a prospect. Lunacy.
