ARSENAL were last night set to cave in and strike a deal with Manchester United for Robin van Persie.

They are ready to start serious talks with United boss Alex Ferguson hoping to seal a £22million move before the weekend’s Premier League opener.

United and Italian giants Juventus have yet to improve offers of £15m.

But Van Persie, 29, was jeered by his own fans in Sunday’s win over Cologne in Germany and is now desperate for a move to be completed.

United see that as the opening to force through a deal.

Arsenal were demanding £25m for the Dutch striker, who has just one year left on his contract.

But the club will now settle for less — rather than have a player on their books who does not want to be there and could become a hate figure for the fans.

RVP scored 37 goals in all competitions last term, 30 of them in the Premier League.

Good luck to him...pray he doesn't get injured as usual.

Dis sure will be a plus for man u in their quest for d title challenge dis season

i guess dat Sir Alex dey use striker do juju

Yay! Am d 1st 2 comment on dis thread.:-D
On 2 crus tins, imagine d deadly combination of Rooney and RVP. +sweet+

podolski in van persie out,fellow gunners lets keep the faith,im sure podolski and giroud will make up for his loss

Let him go, he's a big disappointment in d first place by allowing his transfer negotiation.

WHO IS ROBIN VAN PERSIE. IS HE AN ACTOR OR A BOXER?

van persie is an ingrate,he was always going from one injury to another it was only last season that he played upto 30 matches for us, i pray he fails at man united

F*cking Judas

tonmandy: WHO IS ROBIN VAN PERSIE. IS HE AN ACTOR OR A BOXER?

he is the new spokesman of bokoharam

Gunners are goners sorry

gunners new public enemy

fredoooooo: gunners new public enemy

the guy na betrayer sha

Arsenal is finished! Good move for me,VP deserves a trophy for all his goals,am sure united will win carling cup thz season...arsenal is a pack of failed players.

Goodluck,,RVP..
In wenger we trust...Gunners till Jesus come.
#olivER giROUD,,poDOlsKI,,cazola,,,no cause for alarm. All iz well, let us Keep the faith.

It was once said that Arsenal without RVP is RIP but i tell u if the guy leaves, nothing much will happen. Fine he was fantastic last season bt check out his Euro's form, since then how many games as he played? With the combination of Giroud, Carzola, Podolski and Sahin in view, Arsenal are team to beat this season. Podolski and Carzola top strikes while u have Giroud playing attacking midfield with Walcott and Chambalien doing the flanks job. Arsenal for life!!!!

tonmandy: WHO IS ROBIN VAN PERSIE. IS HE AN ACTOR OR A BOXER?

He is an elder brother 2 almighty Usain bolt. Fool

Bleep up ooo

mkmyers45: the guy na betrayer sha

Carzola striker? giroud Amc? Na wa o

tonmandy: WHO IS ROBIN VAN PERSIE. IS HE AN ACTOR OR A BOXER?

no, a comedian

fredoooooo:

how ?

when he was injured and a no-body who believed in him?

RVP welcome τ̲̅ȍ the land of trophies, a right time for barbatov to leave. GGMU

Just saw it on CNN Sports... Chei! EPL go sweet dis season o. All ye gunners, ya better denouce, recant and move over to Old Trafford now or die of heart attack cos ur "talented fine boy" has been taken. **visualizing Valencia cutting one sharp cross from the left wing and VP slamming it into Petr Cech's net

Arsene Wenger must be licking his lips in anticipation.
25 million for a 29 year old striker, who has been known to be injury-prone, and who was largely anonymous at the Euros

Still Its a rather interesting situation at Man United...

Purchasing RVP signifies that Fergie is determined to win IMMEDIATELY and at all costs, at the expense of some of the younger players...

Given that Rooney is an automatic starter when he's fit....RVP, Chicarito, Welbeck,Young, Nani,Valencia and Kagawa have to compete for attacking positions...

Players like Macheda and Bebe should better arrange a PS3 and FIFA13, cos that's as close as they will get to ever playing for United.

Fergie Knows Best...United for life!

v persi is ghost player always on injury list.i won't pay such a huge amoun 4 a player of that calibre considering the age aswell. Gudluk to him sha

mkmyers45: when he was injured and a no-body who believed in him?

is RVP as important as henry was. . .was arsenal not at a time not built round fabregas,when he left what happened,we still finished top 3. . .i trust wenger on sometin like dat he'l take care of it

and what i think about him moving to man.u. . .i really do not think he'll be as Good as he was(is) in arsenal,remember what happened(and is still happening) to torres even schevy or nasri who had one good season and tot d nxt step is 2 leave arsenal

personally i'm not in d least affected by this news!! At al!!

But is that really what he's really worth?? 25M
