robin van persie (continued)

[the goats backside]

Just cant see him signing for us, hope were not stalling on others because of this

 

[WEMBLEY76]

I was walking close to the Lowry this morning and saw a white old BMW with RVP in its number plate.Probably nothing to report but thats my contribution.

 

[dctid]

To improve the team, we need a top class winger and someone to replace an ageing Barry and RVP to replace Dzeko.

To improve the squad, we need a centre back.

18m for Young was good business compared to how we used to get taken for cunts, same with that twat from Blackburn.

barry's game wont suffer too much from age as he's never been the quickest.

No but surely he will still get comparatively slower....which will be a problem.

Barry is a top player and it was not too long ago that he was getting slated here but the midfield position is so important - simply put agaist the top teams and certainly against the best in Europe he aint goos enough - that not too say i want rid quite the opposite but surely having a top top midfield player like a De Rossi to partner with Yaya would be the best solution and Barry could then be rotated around this player

And if anybody thinks 18 million for Young is a half decent price i give up - Hoilett would have cost the Rags or ourselves half the price and would have been more effective

Hughes would have paid 25 million for Young Mancini would not have even pissed on him

Robin van Persie 'should pick Man Utd over Man City'
By Alistair Magowan
BBC Sport Comments (9) Robin van Persie should pick Manchester United over Manchester City, according to former Blues defender Danny Mills and ex-Reds star Gary Pallister.

Both Manchester clubs and Juventus have placed bids to buy the Arsenal striker.

But Pallister thinks Van Persie, 28, might suffer from City's squad rotation, while Mills says United are better placed to challenge in Europe.

"Strikers get frustrated at City and I don't think Van Persie would be rotated as much at United," said Pallister.

"Van Persie has proven he is top quality and I don't think he would have any problem establishing a lethal partnership with Wayne Rooney.

"So if it's for footballing reasons, then I think Manchester United would be the ideal place for him."

Man City's main strikers
•Sergio Aguero
•Mario Balotelli
•Carlos Tevez
•Edin Dzeko
Dutch striker Van Persie has a year left on his contract at Arsenal but said he does not plan to sign an extension.

He is now faced with a choice between Italian champions Juventus, Premier League champions City or a United side which lost the title by goal difference on the last day of the season.

Arsenal say all three clubs have been short in their valuation of last season's Premier League's top scorer.

It is understood Arsenal are reluctant to enter formal negotiations until a bid exceeds £20m and they are hopeful of holding out for £25-30m.

Despite City's growing credentials, Mills still regards United as a bigger force in Europe having reached the Champions League final twice in the last four seasons.

"Manchester United are still, in terms of club, bigger on a worldwide basis," Mills told BBC Sport. "Manchester City are still up and coming.

"In terms of challenging for the Champions League, if that's what Van Persie really wants, I think Manchester United would be the better option for him." Man Utd's main strikers
•Wayne Rooney
•Danny Welbeck
•Javier Hernandez
•Dimitar Berbatov
Both City and United went out at the group stages of the Champions League last season.

But Mills agrees with Pallister that the size of the Roberto Mancini's squad could count against Van Persie.

And Pallister feels that if Van Persie did choose the red half of Manchester, it would provide the team with the necessary boost after missing out on the title last season.

"Whether it would make the difference [to them winning the title this season], I'm not sure. The goal difference was basically down to one game - the match at Old Trafford against City which cost them dearly, but it should never have gone that far," he said.

"United had the title in their grasp and then they let it go, but I think it will be tight between the two Manchester clubs and maybe Chelsea this year.

"Sir Alex Ferguson has already brought in Shinji Kagawa and Nick Powell , so they have strengthened in midfield and I think Ferguson has said he wants to bring in more players.

"City were definitely better with the strength of their squad last year and it had such depth in it as well, that it gave them an advantage. That is something Ferguson has been and will be addressing."

Yea, I think if united aren't unlucky enough to find themselves in a group with footballing behemoths Oțelul Galați and Basel then they'll no doubt coast the champions league this year

He's off to Juventus

If he wants to play in Serie A he needs his bumps feeling.

He is not going to Italy, 100%. They would have to offer substantially higher wages which they cant.
