What kind of **** team sells its star man to a rival? Ffs

Rvp will score many many goals this season. We should've kept him, won trophies and then signed him on. Or sold him to juventus for £15m. We are a joke of a club only interested in making money

Best striker in the world- we have him on our team. And not only do the board leave him to 1 year on his contract, but then sell him to a direct rival..

Our board are not interested in winning

It's true we don't spend the wages that clubs like ManU, City, and Chelsea do, but they spend that with capital inflows from outside the team. We operate Arsenal as if it were a standalone business.

What else could the club do?

We offered him £130K a week which he deemed insufficient.

Fcuk him! We had to put up with him being injured for 7 fcuking seasons. During that time he was more than happy to take the club's money and he was more than happy then with the way the club was run.

I can't wait for the cnut to be injured....and hopefully for a fcuking long time....

304 league matches possible and he played in 64% total ... the past two years he's played in 83%, but the first six years saw him dress out just 58% (131/228).
