Who's favourite to sign rvp with the bookies?.

According to betfred, he's already signed for the rags.

Has he paid out?

 

[Soulboy]

he wants us and only us!! the arsenal board and management are fighting like fuck at the minute and arsenal are all over the place! i`ve been told that the maximum we will go to is £20m, but we will look to get him for £15m due to his contract situation but it will only happen if arsenal agree to it.

You daft sod.

You've given away City's transfer policy on a public messageboard.

We were hoping to get him for £15m, but are prepared to go to £20m... so any watching Gooner on this site will obviously warn Arsene about it!

Loose lips cost £5m...

Since when has richards30 been ITK?

 

[pudge]

Since when has richards30 been ITK?

Spending so much time on the transfer forum does terrible things to the mind.

 

[twinkletoes]

Since when has richards30 been ITK?

It's been about three months now I think.

Cutting and pasting PM's from Tolmie doesnt count ;)

Juve very much at the table but we're still favourites

They did that trick when we were signing Kun Aguero and Edin Dzeko.

Any other moves close Dan? Or do you know what Tolmie's vids refer to?

 

[BlueTG]

Alright for the sake of debate, would you rather have RVP than a level headed and comitted tevez? because if your only reason is that experience in the champions league then im pretty sure that a champions league medal in tevez's closet can count as experience. FFS RVP never even made it past the quarter finals in his entire stay at arsenal.

Thought they made it to the final in 2006 when Van Persie was playing with them??

As stated before we're very busy in Italy and plenty of air miles being clocked up

In regards to the Vids i'm in the haven't got a scooby camp.............

 

[Del_Bosque]

Is Dzeko the most likely to make way, from what I'm gathering he is.

Tevez wages still proving prohibitive.

If this were Tolmie, I'd take that capital V in Vids plus the Italy link as a hint that we're trying to sign Arturo Vidal. ;)

Tevez wages still proving prohibitive.

The Pimp (Kia) still working hard to get his client a move with Milan being favourites.

If Ibra gets his move it'll free up the finance to make it happen, a big "if" but not out of the question.

 

[Cajun4689]

When should a move be made by?

Swap Tevez for Ibra!

 

[Rammyblues]

Swap Tevez for Ibra!

Prefer Silva

He didn't say that

 

[summer of 69]

6 Injury plagued seasons (albeit not terrible) and one truly good season last season. Thought we could do better after winning the league.

I can understand peoples hesitation in regards to Van Persies injuries and it is a concern but as a footballer, none of the other options people keep naming are better than Van Persie.

The likes of Cavani are no where near as good as Van Persie. People keep saying sell on value and the future etc, but we have Mario and Sergio for the future. Them two should be nurtured for the future.

What we need is an experienced head for NOW, for attempting to win the chumps league over the next few seasons.

For me there is no better fit than Van Persie. He has been a shit hot player for years now. Yes hes been injured and yes it is a risk but from what I have seen hes miles better than any other the options.

Can I ask you who you think is better than Van Persie and what attributes do they have that are better than what he has?

Total and utter common sense. Fuck knows why people cannot just see this. Not a difficult concept.

I think it's a case of there was a point at the beginning of the 'project' where the whole emphasis was on signing 'young and hungry'™ players - the consensus from the club staff right down to the Bluemoon masses was this was what we needed (and to be fair at the time they were largely right). But now, people have got so used to thinking that, that it's become almost like a Pavlovian response to dismiss experienced players who might be knocking on the door of 30.

But the thing is we've moved on and as Dave says we could do with adding some more experience as of right now. Attitudes need to change as our progression in that 'project' has changed and moved forward, but the two things are clearly taking some time to sync up.
