Gunners fans, wacheni uchungu. You should be like Man U fans when Ronaldo left the club to star at Real Madrid. You are such in denial, it's so evident in your words.

What do you mean 'like Man Utd fans' when Ronaldo left for Real almost all football pundits and some fans expected him to be a flop.....his price tag also had bitterness written all over it. Anyway RVPs case is different, he's almost a pensioner, come to think of it he's already one. This is his last contract, which means he only has about two or three years to win anything. I honestly hope he does he deserves it. Last season Barca and Real were really interested in him but they dropped their intetest later on.....at 30 yrs old his career can end up either way, like VDS or Hagreaves. RVP should not blame the fans for hating him, players such as Henry and Cesc left in a respectable manner but RVP's situation was mishandled by his advisers especially that statement he released in July.....must have influenced Wenger's decision to sell him.

RVPs move will definitely have a negative effect on Chicharito and Welbeck careers. Theres no way SAF will be able to rotate 4 strikers in one season, he couldn't do it last season. You need some consistency in the squad to develop confidence in your players. The Mexican will certainly leave sooner or later because of SAF biasness towards English players.

We finally have a deserving captain......TV5. Apart from Viera i never understood why Henry, Gallas, Cesc and RVP were handed the captain's armband. TV5 has a long term contract with the club and is usually very committed on the pitch.....he's been so consistent in his performances.

SAHIN is off to Liverfool not Arsenal. This deals are getting Sweeter by the day

I wanted this RvP deal done and dusted long time ago so that we can move on but its like we have started another chapter. Now is Song to Barca!!! The next 15day will be tormenting
