As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

However, I do think that Van Persie is one of the few players who really care about this club. So I hope he stays here for a long time.
So do I, especially as I have a bet that he'll eventually make 100 league appearances for the club.

Would much prefer that he put all his energy into remaining fit and concentrating on getting the best out of his own game, rather than having to worry about fighting battles for others. Sorry, not for me.
The depressing thing is that who else is there? Vermaelen is dead and the only other player that is anything like captain material is a 19 year old kid.
Says it all really
The next captain will be the next player that gets linked with a big move away.
...had this f**kin nightmare where I logged on to the online gooner and found a thread called RvP but it had somehow turned into a c**ting y*d forum where they were slaggin off our best and most loyal player! Horrible.
