It is widely believed we pulled out of the deal when RVP dropped the bombshell that he wanted a four year deal at 220k. City rightly saw at 29 years old and injury prone, this was a huge risk, especially when high earners like Ade still refuse to move on.
So in the end United were the only club willing to pay up. This said RVP is a top player and will do well at the scum, they just have to prey he stays fit and age doesn't see him dip in form.
The deal represents a massive risk to them imo but fair play if they want to gamble. I'm just delighted that City didn't.

he is a massive signing for them
hes full of assist and goals
while i didnt want him to sign for us as he wouldnt have strengthed us he has certainly strengthed our biggest rivals.
71 goals betweeen him and rooney last year makes them very dangerous

Did you see Rooney play last season? He was fucking gash from December onwards. Every level headed rag i have spoken to from about january onwards has said they hope it is his last season and they need to cash in on him. Scored 9 penalties though because he is world class.
As for Van persie he has never looked like he did last season and he will never score 30+ goals again. He has a new team around him that will take him a while to settle into and he is shit when it is not all set up for him (see euro 2012) aren't set up specifically to provide for him and we all know the rags medical team is shit (see Ferdinand, vidic, Owen, young, Hargreaves, cleverly).
To the tune of re-e-wind-Craig David.
Van per-sie, when the girl says no. MOLEST HER.
