Any chance he will be given the No.9 now that Berba has left?

World class player.
Maybe if we get number 20. Which could be a while given todays failings.
Not this season at least. Players squad numbers are registered usually about a week before seasons start.
nah. he should always wear that 20 shirt. has 'legend' written all over it. and RVP is fast on his way to being a legend on here.
I am won over totally. That elusive central midfield signing might have got us out of trouble as well today but he wouldn't have scored a hat trick in his second start. And now we still get to watch Scholes. Today was a good day for Fergie.
We need more gifs and videos!
I'm amazed a section of our fanbase felt they had to be 'won over' by perhaps the world's deadliest striker(certainly level with Falcao).
We made an unbelievable signing. 22 million or whatever by a striker who guarantees important goals and points is daylight robbery. The negativity, albeit by a minority, actually blows my mind.
As it was Ruud's, because we played (and lost to the Scousers) in the Community Shield that year.
He's our best player. He's truly world class in every sense of the word. You could see Southampton collectively shit themselves every time he had the ball at his feet.
His interviews and attitude are class too. Already my favourite United player. Love the lad.

A mercenary who's played for you for 5 minutes? You were more sensible when you were 16.
He makes a nice change from Rooney: 'erm, yeh, we got the win and, erm, I think, erm, we probably deserved it and, erm, yeh, i'm, erm, very happy'-Repeat no matter what the question.
get a life you absolute nerd. I made a spelling mistake, do you really get off being such a hitler
Hardly a mercenary. He gave his all to Arsenal for years and then moved. It's not as though he went to a crap team for a gazillion pounds to just get a paycheck and has no hope of winning anything...... oh wait....
Yeah, great goals, shit pen etc...
That aside, what the actual feck is he doing with his arms when he runs?

I'm impressed with the manner he's just gone about delivering the goods from the first minute.
His overall play was much improved today as well as his ruthlesness in front of goal.
It's almost as if getting an established top class player really does make a difference. Ah, must be a fluke. No chance of that happening in CM I'd wager.

Take it easy, he's only played 3 times for United...
You can tell, though that he's on a different level & it's still almost a double take to see him in a United shirt.
What the feck? He scored against Southampton.
Yep that's what you call someone who's been developed by a team and supported through multiple injuries and fecks off for the money after one good season,A mercenary
Or in the real universe. Stayed with a team season after season and won 0 trophies, stayed even after all his friends and colleagues left and saw them become successful, and then finally left to join most successful league side in England.
He's a cnut (as the Fulham fans pointed out last week) and you'll finish below us this season.
I usually use Fulham fans as my barometer of football opinion truth.
Still, Sol Campbell's still a lovely chap.

fecking Spurs over is allowed. Fulham fans are on the whole a decent indicator of cuntishness.
By who? The cnut Gods?
Eitherway, Chamakh is definitely gay. As this pole pointed out last week.

He gave you almost his entire 20's, Peter. Vilifying him for wanting to win something before he retires is cnutish. (If money was his object, I'm sure City would have paid him more.)
He played for Arsenal mate. This time last year, we were laughing at him after the penalty miss during the 8-2 game. I can understand certain people finding it hard to relate to him, but feck me... he's so good!

Only an absolute idiot would have any reservations about signing English football's best player.
I know as United fans we're spoilt, but the lack of excitement from some people towards this signing absolutely blew my mind. I just can't get the reasoning. Holding certain players back - not for me: competition for places is always an advantage. Then we get the money could have been spent better in midfield diatribe.
Van Persie guarantees not just goals, but important ones; which translates to points. The man is a match winner and he changes games at important moments. A fact that often goes overlooked.
Well said. He's absolutely class, and keeps producing something special just when the team needs a boost. I'm biased though: I love strikers and my favourite United player is another Dutch striker.
wow, I'm amazed how quickly people change their minds on here.
I bet you the same people who are calling him a legend already and saying he's without a doubt our best player (although to be fair I only saw one person actualy write this) will be the first ones to criticise the shit out of him when he screws something up, mather of fact I bet they were screaming what a retard he was when he screwed up the penalty.
I'll admit, I wasn't too thrilled about signing RvP, however that was only down to the fact that yet again we overlooked our most obvious flaw and spent the cash we don't have on a striker. That was the only reason, I was never "dissapointed" at the simple fact that RvP was ours, that was always a huge plus in my book.

eh?
as in we still need to pay off the debt
probably should have put that somewhere in there to avoid confusion... wanna bet? Your mate Gillespie still owes me money making the same bet a few years ago. He's really cute too. I love him.
