    Just embarrassing. <laugh>.

    And of course, Gerv and Ramsey are not worth that money. I never said they were. Unlike you my views are consistent.

    That's why I said I'M WILLING TO CONCEDE ON ARSHAVIN, god are you thick? I still don't believe Arshavin was 80k a week, but could see WHY he would still be given that much.

    How convenient though, you're the one ignoring my main argument now with players like Gervinho, and Ramsey.

    God some of you are ****ing stupid really.

    conceding after I schooled you. Nice. :) How am I ignoring you question? I already told you what I think about Ramsey and Gervinho. I have Gervinho in my worst ever Arsenal team, so of course I disagree with the amount he is getting paid.

    Sure on the form he was for Lille there is no reason to believe more teams wouldn't be willing to pay around that ballpark.

    Again, the deal was made on his form then and on past evidence.

    You didn't school anyone.

    You never told me anything about Gervinho and Ramsey in specific to the CURRENT ARGUMENT.

    And wow, so basically, on your entire argument, only ONE player who I think we overpaid on, we didn't overpay, YAYYYYYY, just one player. Ignore all the OTHER ones we have overpaid, such as Ramsey, Gervinho, Santos, Park, and the list goes on.

    He was never worth 70k, form or no form. If he was worth 70k on his form, then by your logic, RVP was worth 140k for a new contract, so why don't Arsenal then consistently apply that methodology?

    tbh we used to be rivals .. but not anymore.. we have to be back at 2004 for last time we were rivals
    so your argument don't stand really bcz you didn't sell for a rival here

    it is a mix of both money + trophies
    if QPR had big new rich owner, would you see RVP picking them over UTD? sure not
    I think the wages was an issue but Arsenal lack of depth and quality to challenge for the title was the other reason as well? you can't just pick one and not the other

    United are a rival, irrespective of us winning or challenging you, you're still a rival.

    sure, is always interesting playing you guys
    but league table wise, when it comes to selling RVP, it wouldn't had any difference if you sold him to Real or UTD .. in either case the table order for both will stay the same
    I think the rivality between us is not the same anymore .. UTD main rivals geographically are Liverpool and city and points wise we can add Chelsea

    If we kept RVP, table wise, things could've maybe been different.

    How different? Would he have improved our defence? No. We might have been in the top four by now with him in the team, but our problems are throughout the team and also the manager.

    I schooled him yesterday about RVP's programme notes and he still tried to say that RVP said the same thing years ago, despite being proved wrong.

    No, I mistook the quote you were mentioning with ANOTHER that was similar. The quote I had in mind WAS SAID years ago when RVP said he can't see himself winning with another club as it wouldn't feel as special.

    So you didn't school anyone, you're just a deluded liar right now.

    You got Schooled <ok>

    You said it was 4 years ago, because you were trying to defend RVP going back on his word and it wasn't - it was in RVP's first programme notes as Captian.

    Don't try and dig another hole for yourself, you barely managed to climb out of the one you dug yesterday.

    sure .. but RVP didn't want to finish second or third .... he wanted to challenge for the title .. and don't forget Arsenal didn't want to match what he was asking wages wise .. so having him now was never an option tbh .. he was leaving anyway, like many other did before .. you play football to win and earn money.. if he can get enough of both, players leave the clubs

    How am I schooled when I mistook the quote with another? That happens, I mistook what you were mention about with another quote of RVP which was similar. That's not schooling me, nor is that me digging me whole, this is simply you being a thick head who can't accept that innocent fact.

    To answer the original question, yes, we do miss Robin van Persie.
