Rather than taking a criticizing view on the outburst of joy it was more of a silly infectiousness I felt, but whatever man.
I do get exited, yes.And the outburst of Chelsea fans I also find hilarious.

We've bought a truly top class striker... and it's not cost us £40m. Yeah, it's Merry Chrimbo for all Jewish kids.
Totally agree.
I thought paying big money would be a big risk but 15 million with the rest being appearance based add ons is a very good deal.
I'd only feel sorry for the Arsenal fans that saw it coming and werent saying stupid stuff over the years when they were told that their players wont be sticking around if they arent winning anything.

Wow, I'm pretty pessimistic over how this will work out but it's impossible to not get excited over the signing of such a great player. We're loaded with attacking options right now. Having players of such great footballing intelligence as Rooney and RvP should allow us to move them around to get the best out of all our options.
I'd expect the deal for robin van persie to be finalised in the next couple of days.
Messi?
In June if you told me we were going to buy Van Persie, despite him being 29, I would have expected a price of 35 to 40 million. Simply because of how incredible he's been over the last year and a half. 15 million is ridiculous, really.
Cheers bro. Now I feel relaxed.
Signed PFA Player of the year & Premier League Golden Boot winner & the captain of one of our biggest rivals & the transfer thread could barely muster 6,400 odd posts.
pfft...
pfft...
its always thailand isnt it?Gillespie Airways is ready for take-off
Err yes, that RVP has agreed personal terms perhaps?
Now Fergie has to juggle 4 top class strikers, not to mention handle Berba's departure and find a system to work with Rooney, Kagawa-san and RVP.
I knew SAF wouldn't spunk 20mil+ on a 29 year old. The price and the fact that Juve/City didn't get a look in suggests RVP made it clear that he was only interested in Utd.
Thinking about it, i reckon we've had this deal in the bag for a while now.
That will be Berbatov's destination in all probability.
at the gooner fans calling him disloyalWhy is it hilarious?
Wouldn't you be pleased as hell if you'd just signed the best player in the league?
Oh wait, you guys did sign Torres after all...
And some desktop banners. And a poem. Definitely a poem.
Exactly.
Very, very happy with this. I can't believe that some people aren't. This is a world class striker, for a not very high fee. Yes, he's approaching 30. Yes, he's been very injury prone in the past. But last season showed that he doesn't have to be. And I think that it's worth the gamble with that fee.
Also, regarding the age thing, it's not like Van Persie's biggest asset is his pace. If this is a 4 year contract as stated, there's no reason why he can't perform at the highest level for all of that.
Chuffed.

Bebe is part the deal
It's been known that the United medical team do not have a good track record of "healing" players, add that with RVP and this gets 
Glazzers going all out to win over MUST....
Van Persie is a much better player, though.
I can see Fergie playing Kagawa wide on the left but having him drift in a lot. Evra covers enough ground to play left wing anyway.
I'll never doubt the Bleacher Report again.
What happened with Rodwell man?
It's going to be pretty surreal seeing him in a United jersey ... can't wait for the season to start now.
Step 1 - take monday off from work.

The thing I don't get is how the BBC site says that we need to agree personal terms BUT that its a four year deal. I'm guessing personal terms are a formality?
Are you absolutely sure about that? Any idea about the kind of fee, or whether it's been agreed at all? There's so little on this subject and I think a true ITK like you who knows his stuff could shed some light on it.
Hopefully not Rooney
The way these things are done we probably agreed terms prior to making a firm offer.
Or a new left back maybe...
