Van Persie contract talks on hold

Post by topcat »

Now 28 years old, surely he wants more silverware in his career..

I think if he stays fit all season then he's a goner.

He will be off as soon as he can,closely followed by Wilshire!!!
There is no loyalty in football anymore.
They will come out with the same shit that Fabregas and Nasri did,ie:We don't have a chance of winning anything at Arsenal,(while coveniently overlooking the fact that they are the fuckers who are failing on the pitch!!!).
Fuck them!!! Go now!!!

As soon as RVP switched agents to Darren Dein (who organised the Henry and Cesc transfers to Barca, and the Clichy and Nasri deals to City) the writing was on the wall.

He is GONE next summer.

Agreed..... Hasnt got time to discuss a contract is code for im off... What bollocks 'havent got time' its not him who discuss' contracts its his agent and the club, if he wants to stay he will find time to sign it

I bet if he picks up one of his long term injuries, then he won't hesitate in signing another contract.

What's that? RVP doesn't wanna waste the prime years of his career next to Diaby, Song, Shitachi and Chamakh!
He will join the Citeh revolution!
Oh but remember Robin...no player who leaves Arsene ever goes on to better things. Just ask Henry, Vieira, Cesc and Nasri!!!

He's 28, if he leaves in the Summer he will be 29, if he runs his contract down he will be 30, which club would give an injury plagued 30 year old a 4 year deal and over 100K a week?

Chelsea got burned with Shevchenko, other clubs will be cautious because the situation is no different, he's not the most reliable fitness wise.

The club are in a strong position on this one, could easily get 25M for a 29 year old who's best years have already been spent at the club.

Strikers past 30 rarely perform at their previous level.

I'd be VERY surprised if RVP is still here next season tbh. Can't blame him. If Lord Vader stays in charge we ain't gonna win shit. Top players want to win stuff. He's a top (if injury prone as fuck) player. :(

He's gone, we all know it, the only reason he won't go will be if no one good comes in for him which is quite likely given his history with injuries and age.
