robin van persie (continued)

I've never had the pleasure of seeing Cavani play live so i can't really pass judement on his overall play and that's how i like to assess players.

Napoli style of play is counter attacking where Arsenal play in front of you on the edge of the box so hard to compare players playing differant styles.

Arsenal's style of play is closer to the way we play so i can see the RVP fit, so to speak.

Don't get me wrong, i wouldn't turn my nose up at Cavani but i can only judge what i've seen live and i like what i've seen.

I understand your reasoning and that's fair enough, but for me it's Cavani all day. He was unplayable at our place and I've watched him a lot for Napoli since then. His pace, movement, heading ability, composure and age just make him perfect.

Could he partner Aguero though?

Aguero has to be the lead man, as does Cavani, what would give?

RVP would drop off Aguero and work around him, it's a partnership made in heaven, imho

Whilst I agree that RVP - Aguero would work well, his age and injury record seriously, and I mean SERIOUSLY concern me.

I'd love Cavani here, it's not a case of either or for me. More a case of me wishing we were going for Cavani all out and not RVP, mainly because of the concerns I listed before.

Last season RVP was without doubt the best player i saw at the Etihad.

His movement and ability to stretch a defence to create space for others is second only to Aguero.

When i imagine RVP alongside Aguero with Silva and Nasri behind them my mouth starts to water, here's hoping!

I scratch my head when i see people posting they don't want him?

92 fucking chances he created last season imagine Aguero having that sort of supply.

Add to that the goals he'd score with Silva and Nasri supplying him along with Aguero making the space, and visa versa

What defence in the prem could stop that attack ! Rio fucking coke head, johnny the wife shagger couldn't

Cavani is too similar to Dzeko, we already have the problem with Dzeko not fitting in our system.
Van Persie would be better for us without a doubt.

I know plenty want Cavani because he's younger, played very well against us, probably isn't nearly half the twat RVP is nor as injury prone, but RVP is the better footballer at the minute and would be a much, much better partner for Aguero IMO. People discard the rest of his game because he's having to play as Arsenals only striker, but his link up is top class. He's just an exceptionally well rounded footballer.

I heard about this deal about a month ago. Mancini told a friend of mine that he was his number one target (along with Thiago Silva).

Wrong.

If we sign RvP for a penny more than 15m and wages anywhere near the likes of Aguero i will be disappointed in Mancini.

We have a perfectly good set of 4 strikers. One could go off the rails but he might not and if he doesn't he is better than RvP imo.

Who Balotelli? Maybe in time, not even close right now.

I was thinking Tevez.....

Balotelli could too of course but i just have a feeling he has changed and will really do well for us next season.

 

[Rammyblues]

Seems the deal is anywhere between 10m and 30m, save pissing about split the difference 20m job done. :-)

this the calm after the storm,after RVP confirmed he wasn't signing a new contract......gone quiet
