I prefer to believe he's taking 200k aweek off the rags for four years. Sounds better to know that he's costing them 65/66million that they can't afford, not to mention the unrest it could cause amongst other players.

Well now we know why they needed to take money off Chevrolet up-front two years before the shirt deal actually kicks in.

Top marks for effort though.

They'd be playing that on RedCafe if we'd have signed him. Tis funny though.

The bridgewater is swarming with rags . It's forever tainted now

why are we all quoting £24mil? Its £35m with salary - thats what would be said about us

£65m with salary - unless the reports of £200k for 4 years were wrong

Make no mistake, the Dark Side are stronger with RVP.

May I just drop this in...

The bottom line is that I want to win trophies with Arsenal, not with anybody else. I know you can win trophies in many countries and in many ways, but I want to do that in our way and in an Arsenal shirt.

‘I’m sure I could win things at another team in another country, but would it feel like our trophy, my trophy? I’m not sure it would. Anything we win here will come from the heart and that’s what I want. It’s my dream and I see no point in speaking about other teams when I have these dreams. I think other people know that about me; I’m just hungry to win with Arsenal and that’s it – Robin van Persie, February 2011

But it's starting to dawn on them that they aren't going to win anything with Arsenal. You can't blame him when he's seen the supposedly over-the-hill Kolo Toure leave and win medals.

Fair point, but he really should have kept his mouth shut then and not have thinly veiled pops at other players for leaving.

Yes, but Rooney and Welbeck weren't the weak link were they?

Leaves the full back positions exposed, with Rio, Scholes and Giggs still key squad players
