robin van persie

Friday is Arsenal's Deadline for Season Tickets. We may here something after that.

I just have a feeling Van Persie will eventually stay where he is, but only after a lengthy summer saga, coming out with declarations of love for Arsenal and their fans despite openly flirting with every club in Europe.

According to Eurosport, RVP's wife says that he is staying at Arsenal, so end of story, at least until January 2013.

"Arsenal showed faith in Robin when he was going through a lean time, so we should not repay them by thinking about other clubs. Our home life and our children are happy in London." - Robin van Persie's wife says the striker will DEFINITELY stay at Arsenal. That's that then. ED expects that new contract to be signed within the week.

Really don't think City should be wasting their time on trying to get him.

He's playing around almost like Hazard.

If he wanted to come to us, he would have put a transfer request in and let it be known already.

Instead of our club wasting valuable time on players messing around we should be after players who want to come here.

Hi Michael from Sydney Australia

There seem to be arguments for and against RVP. From the latest media reports his Mum doesn't want him going anywhere, so lets assume for the moment that he stays in London. There seems to be a lot of support for Bale, and I take the point from Daxman a few posts earlier about Bale's ability to cross the ball. My question is this - who does Bale cross the ball too? If we don't have Djeko on the park then there is no tall presence out there other than from set pieces. On his good days Djeko is very very good and on his off days he is the opposite.

My solution (and I suspect it may be unpopular given some of the comments on the forum) would be to send Tevez to Milan and take Ibrahimovic in return. If it meant also tossing in a Kolarov as well plus a few more Euros then I would do it.

Ibrahimovic seems to have his detractors. However I believe that the boss rates him very highly. I believe we need a tall reliable presence up front for the crosses. By the way I thought Giroud the French striker seemed to be very good in the air and a cheaper option than Ibrahimovic.

That is a bit of a shortsighted statement. We all know how these "loyalty" bonuses work and if you were in the same position, you simply wouldn't throw money away at the off chance a transfer might be agreed when the transfer could happen without having to throw your money away.

gotta go double or quits!! :-( mum got shafted by a fucking rag mate for £50,000 and is getting harrassed by people for cash! dont normally gamble but seems the only way! :-( was hopeful of hazard as it would have made a small dent in the debt but alas no pennies.
