crazy money for a 29 year old
When you see the fees flying around today, it's not crazy. RVP could be worth this fee if we get a few years out of him. If he was a player who relied on pace and was about to be past his prime, I could understand, but he's a player who relies on his ability and I don't see him losing that at all.

feck me diagonally! i never believed we'd sign him :D
Same here tbh.It's a weird feeling I have, a mixture of surprise and joy but also a little bit of concern regarding the CM and LB.
This signing means SAF really took extremely bad what happened last season(City winning the title) and has taken every step for Man United to win the title in this one

It is an utter discrage to the caf that the phrase "Cocks out" has not been used in this thread.

A disgrace.

Fergie is the man, this was a big statement.

In a way using the resources on RVP is exciting and scary, but no matter what happens this season there's going to be some damn entertaining football played at Old Trafford.

As skeptical as I have been IF he gives us 3 years of his best form it will be a great great deal.

I no longer hate Arsenal. I don't know if it was a case of them having no choice, although I'm sure they could have dug their heels in. I just know that if it had been City or Liverpool, they wouldn't have sold to us.

I think he's made it clear he wanted to join us.
RvP wanted to come to United. Personal terms will have been already agreed privately prior to agreeing terms with Arsenal.
I'm always wary of an eleventh hour bid from one of the moneybags clubs though. Anyway my paranoia is adding a negative vibe to this momentous occasion, so I'll stop that now.

We don't have that sort of rivalry with them Livvie. It was only out of competing for the same honors.

Rooney - RVP - Kagawa - Nani.

Opposition fans - Your argument is invalid.

I've never been too enthusiastic about this signing...Welbeck and Chicharito are going to need games. As is Henriquez(potentially). It complicates things with Kagawa also.

It creates lots of headaches, imo, in the long-term future of the squad.
