    '' his injury record ain't great, '' he's a gamble'', '' it's a lot of money for a 29 year old'', we're halfway through the season and RVP has shut his doubters up with 22 goals for us this season, he's only 20 goals away from Ronaldo's record in the 07/08 season, i think he can beat that record in my opinion, he's made us invincible, he's bought back that fear factor that many of our fans felt we were missing, so far, he's made a massive difference for us this season, he doesn't score tap-ins, i remember his home debut against Fulham when he scored his first goal at the scoreboard end, to hit that first time when the ball is bouncing, it was a class finish.

    Matth, you were the biggest one of the lot.

    You and Shawn; we didn't need him, he was too old and he is too injury prone.

    It was you mate. And you were both wrong. I'll hesitate to say as usual in this instance.

    i admit chief, i didn't want him but i didn't want him going to city and like i've said many times on here, i'm glad we've got him, that fee we paid for him looks like a bargain.

    You should listen to your uncle Chief a bit more.

    <laugh>, i would've been gutted if he went to City, but he didn't he chose history and tradition over money and bench warming.

    Lol I just didn't think we'd even attempt to sign him, let alone actually sign him! Only an idiot would not want RVP. He could walk on to any team in the worlds starting 11.

    He's only finishing what he started at Arsenal. Not surprised really.

    I thought you lot were ****ing mental paying that much money considering age and length of time on the contract at Arsenal. Then I looked at some of the tosh we spunked money up the wall on over the past four years and decided to keep my ****ing mouth shut.

    Great signing, and you will get silverwear as a result. He's put you beyond reach of City again.
