I think Fergie is feeling the pressure a bit as he seems to be spending a bit this summer.

I know he has over previous years but, well, I don't think they really need Van Persie.

Why do you think that? He's a marked upgrade on Welbeck, Hernandez and Berbatov, so strengthens their team notably, which brings them and Man City closer. Why would they not need him?

Not only that, but it ensures that none of their title rivals or Champions League rivals have him.
 
Song would be a much bigger loss to Arsenal than van Persie.

Surprised by the RVP fee though. That's a big gamble, especially considering united's cashflow problems. Arsenal fans should be very happy with that arrangement.

I agree. After Viera left Arsenal all those years ago, they were always in need of a good defensive midfielder who could do the holding role and break up attacks, but have the ability to pick out players too. Finally, they have Song who is very good at doing just that and it seems they are willing to let him go....It´s going to be a problem for them if he does go because a player with his characteristics is hard to find.
