Referring to rvp?

In his remarks about Dennis, Wenger says "...He was class, intelligent and he had another quality that is a bit lost today: he was loyal to this club. He deserves special treatment." A Wenger style dig at rvp....

Rex

Don't think it was a dig at Persie at all. He will also 100 percent be a Man U player next season for the very simple reason that there is no way anyone will drop a tempting enough offer for Man U to sell him. Whatever Judas wants is irrelevant here.

Lukazan

Might have not been a direct dig at RVP but it was about players exactly like him.

Yes...Loyalty ranks very high in Wenger's book....
As for "100%" manu next season, only rvp knows...

Rex

Nothing points to Persie having a release clause, and it is unlikely that Man U would want to get rid. That means a club would have to come in with a bid to make them think about it. Very unlikely any club will be willing to pony up 20m+ and wages north of 200k for an injury prone 31 year old. In fact, I think Man U would struggle to find a club for him even if they lowered their ask considerably.

Wait and see....

United literally have 6 (quality) players who are best at #10 or #9 - Mata, Kagawa, Rooney, van Persie, Welbeck, Hernandez. That's very crowded. They only have two players who are on that level (Carrick, Januzaj) on the wings and in central midfield.

Qwiss

The more I think about the Rooney contract the more of a mistake it seems. Rooney is not an ideal number 10 in most systems, he's also not as good number 9 as most top strikers. I think he's going to become a bit of a Gerrard character at United. He'll be there, he'll be one of their best players but until his role dimishes they wont be able to move forward.

Moyes will go before seasons' end.

Rex

Damn. Fingers crossed Moyes wins a few on the bounce then! 🙂

Volante

Who could United get that's any good? All the top managers are currently in top jobs.

Bold Tone

Van Gaal would improve them much more than Moyes.
Think he has to get top 4 to survive and that's a massive ask, the way spuds and dippers are going.
Wonder if we could Fellaini him to Diaby a Giroud, together, before he goes?

Volante

Never liked van Gaal, wouldn't mind if he went there. If I were running United I'd offer Wenger 15m a season and see what happened.

Volante

Lucien Favre is an excellent manager. Don't know if he's good enough for Europe's elite but Spurs and maybe United should look.

"Six from that belt and you were in absolute agony. That was the punishment you had, in my case, usually for fighting in the playground," he told the Times Educational Supplement
"Elizabeth Thomson was an inspiration to me. She had a raw determination about her and she improved everyone she touched.
"Mrs Thomson endeavoured to make you be the best you could be. Yes, that part of me comes from her."

"When she died, I couldn't go to her funeral but months later I got a parcel. She had bequeathed her belt to me.
"Her nephew sent it with a letter saying: 'You'll know more about this belt than anyone.'
It's in my study now. My grandchildren are terrified of it."

:o 😆
Blimey. Old school, biblical Fergie.

Timbob

She sounds like a fucking sadist. Can imagine Fergie opening that parcel and letting out a single high pitched scream.
