Robin van Persie | 2012-14 Performances

[Crustanoid]

Where's the trademark photo with Gill and his creepy smile?

All I can think of is that Gill has been locked in a cupboard for a few days while SAF hastily made a 'non-value' signing. I'm sure he'll be released now the deal is done

 

[I'm always right]

Val got 7 from Owen.

Owen had already been released.

But yeah, RVP will get 9 if he wants it. No point giving Berba a squad number, the lad knows he's gone.

 

[MUFCgal]

Need his squad number so I can get a shirt ordered.
Put ordering one on hold until this was confirmed.

I said I wouldn't get the new home shirt because it's horrible looking.

Then I said I'd only get it on one condition - if we signed RvP. Now I've ordered it and am waiting on confirmation of RvP's shirt number.

 

[Garethw]

Yes! This is the most exciting transfer we've had in years!

 

[Maciej]

I remember Hargreaves got number 4 when Heinze was still here (he was given 14)

Yes, but Heinze behave like a cnut, so it was nice () to disrespect him. Berbatov is quiet and if van Persie gets #9 when Bebratov is still at the club, I can see Berba-lovers moan. But there's absolutely no point in givin van Persie a high number, because Berbatov has no future at United.

 

[RDCR07]

Is it really happening? I still can't believe it.

 

[pepsi07]

Where can i watch the press conference ? mutv ?

 

[MichaelS]

So how many goals will RVP knock in this season?

I say 25.

 

[evil_geko]

Val got 7 from Owen.

Berba i think will be leaving, and SAF would know it. Also only 2, 20, 28 ,29 ,30 etc are free

Then let him wear something like this:

 

[RDCR07]

He can have #20 as well. A rightful successor to Ole! He will score the winning goal to lift either the title on the last day of the season or score the UCL winner.

[Vidicious]

What times the press conference?

 

[OB]

Yes, but Heinze behave like a cnut, so it wasn't a problem for Fergie to disrespect him. Berbatov is quiet and if van Persie gets #9 when Bebratov is still at the club, I can see Berba-lovers moan. But there's absolutely no point in givin van Persie a high number, because Berbatov has no future at United.

I am a Berba fan, and i don't think it's any reason to moan. It's certain he is to leave. No point giving him a low number if he won't even make the bench.

 

[Jaz]

Where's Gill?!!!

 

[Lynk]

Squad number 31?

 

[McGrathsipan]

He said its an Honour to sign for United!

Good man yourself Robin!

 

[Lynk]

What times the press conference?

2 pm.

 

[OB]

f a p f a p f a p

Squad number 31?

It's training kit number.

 

[Maciej]

Squad number 31?

When. Will. People. Understand.

 

[Sassy Colin]

So was the actual transfer fee established, or is it 'undisclosed'?

I've heard variously:

£15M + £7m add ons
£15M + add ons up to £24M
£22.5M + add ons to £24M
£24M

Is there an official figure or is it all just speculation?

 

[Solius]

Right handed but left-footed.

 

[Mockney]

Surreal as shit.

 

[Jimy_Hills_Chin]

Spoiler

That photo made me laugh out loud. It must be painful for Le Arse fans to see him in that United training kit looking so happy, kind of surreal isn't it!

 

[syrian_scholes]

Spoiler

This is a really weird picture..

 

[Lynk]

When. Will. People. Understand.

Training kits numbers have changed this year to the player's actual number. Previously they were randomly assigned on purchase

So yeah, RVP is number 31. Suck it cnuts

 

[Deleted 20801]

Imagine someone saying a year ago that we would be signing Van Persie.

Insane.

 

[Raven Blade]

It took a little while for it to sink in but this is great news. I'm sure our fans will support him 100%. We've taken Arsenal's best player and we should be very happy about that.

 

[Godfather]

Both look happy as feck

 

[Ekeke]

Yes, but Heinze behave like a cnut, so it was nice () to disrespect him. Berbatov is quiet and if van Persie gets #9 when Bebratov is still at the club, I can see Berba-lovers moan. But there's absolutely no point in givin van Persie a high number, because Berbatov has no future at United.

What would be the point in not giving RVP the option of our number 9 shirt when in a few weeks, it'll be completely free?

 

[KM]

Honestly buzzing. What a signing.

 

[Sassy Colin]

This is a really weird picture..

 

[thegregster]

So RVP is left footed. right handed. Thats very rare.

 

[Maajid]

Val got 7 from Owen.

Michael Owen was released on May 17th and Valencia got his number 7 on July 3rd.

 

[Chabon]

That photo made me laugh out loud. It must be painful for Le Arse fans to see him in that United training kit looking so happy, kind of surreal isn't it!

It must be absolutely devestating for Wenger to see that.

 

[Garethw]

I bet Fergie has his cock in his hand under the table (just like all of us) over this transfer!

 

[Tomalonge]

So RVP is left footed. right handed. Thats very rare.

Not really. It's more unusual to be left footed and left handed.

 

[Pexbo]

Robin Van Persie.

Of Arsenal Fame.

A Wenger Product.

Playing for Manchester United.

Under Sir Alex Ferguson.

Well, feck.



EDIT: Just look at their faces They really do have a "this is fecking surreal" look on them.

 

[Lynk]

When he is confirmed as #31 you can all suck my shit.


More proof

 

[scream]

I said I wouldn't get the new home shirt because it's horrible looking.

Then I said I'd only get it on one condition - if we signed RvP. Now I've ordered it and am waiting on confirmation of RvP's shirt number.

Where did you order it on confirmation on squad number?
On the megastore he's not listed as yet?
