Yes!

"RVP has agreed a £220,000 per week deal at MUFC, Fergie wasn't present at preseason friendly as he was involved in final negotiations. In the end MUFC were forced to meet AFC £25m valuation. First big move of the window. Expect a chain reaction"

Far, far, far too much for him if true.

Van Persie to get injured against Everton confirmed.

 

[Clegg]

Talk to me United GAF bros, what doth the Twitter man say?

#RVP is officially a #MUFC player. Successful talks were finalised late this evening and the medical date is confirmed!

This.

Lets all believe a random bloke on twitter with "Football Agent" in his neme.

Its all bollocks, unfortunately.

 

[Salvadora]

If that's true I'm surprised they met the £25m valuation. 220,000 is an incredible amount on wages.

Seems legit.

It's too high, I can't see us paying him that amount for him and his wages.

Rooney is 'only' on 160-180K a week iirc.

Maybe. But it's clear RVP is going to join United and only United.

[dc89]

I'm gonna make a Twitter account tomorrow.

@Football_agent_ITK69

because if I was a agent I'd really go and do that.

 

[D_prOdigy]

If true, it suggests to me Fergie's eyeing his retirement and wants to go all-out nuts in his last season(s).

I always wonder how they managed to amass so many followers when they just appear out of the blue.

 

[dc89]

Rooney isn't on £160k. When he wanted to leave he was persuaded by £200k. IIRC it was over £200k.

I'm afraid he plays for Spurs now.

Presumably you saw the contract.

It's the price of Wenger's pride

 

[kharma45]

Guardian has him at £26k a day, so £182k a week.

Reports of over £200k are exaggerated IMO.

 

[Vivalaraza]

Rooney isn't on £160k. When he wanted to leave he was persuaded by £200k. IIRC it was over £200k.

I think his basic wage is less than £200k a week. No way of knowing for sure really though.

(RI had the story he had made his u-turn a couple of days early, they have quite a few insiders and they claimed that it was between £160k-£180k...loads either way)

I'm afraid he plays for Spurs now.

SHIT.

We have to buy BAE now.

 

[Clegg]

The bait has been swallowed!!

Piers Morgan‏@piersmorgan

If Arsenal sell @Persie_Official to United, it will be a disgraceful act of treachery by the player, and surrender by the management.

 

[kharma45]

Get Rafael to play LB.

 

[Vivalaraza]

Get Rafael to play LB.

But I can't get Rafael's name to rhyme with the likes of Rooney, Shinji, Nani, Tony etc.

"@Football_Agent243: Manchester United have agreed a fee in the region of €12m for Malaga star Isco with Berbatov going the other way."

"The United manager was not present at their final pre-season game due to 'Club business'. however we understand from our source the manager was hard at work finalising a deal for the midfilder after moves for Lucas and Hazard had failed. The medical will take place sometime next week as Manchester United hope to conclude all deals before the Everton game"

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Aggravating Piers and Meus is the only real reason I want RVP.

 

[Vinegar Joe]

Oh man, I hope he does move, if only to see the Piers Morgan breakdown.

 

[Vivalaraza]

Isco and RVP?

Amazing.

 

[Arnie]

If United have signed RVP then it's a fantastic move from them. Found all the pessimism surrounding his signature baffling, to be honest, how many times did you say 'wow' about him last season; MVP for me. Arsenal will get over him but it'll take a little while.

United really going for the league if they get him, if they get Baines as well, and Vidic coming back they're much stronger than last season already. And that's without Kagawa, who looks top.

 

[Salazar]

We're not getting Baines, Arnie.

SAF was seemingly a bit hacked off that Moyes didn't basically cough the player up on being asked.

 

[Zabojnik]

Like there ever was any doubt, lol. Once it was clear he wanted to go to ManU, that's where he was going.

Congrats United-GAF, may he serve you well!

 

[kharma45]

Call him Rafi.

Are people taking this twitter bollocks seriously?

I can't even tell anymore.

Doesn't hurt to dream, but the way things are going it does seem that RVP will come.

He'll no doubt be a great signing for us (providing the price is right) and will finally give us a reliable goal scorer up front, something I feel we've been missing since RvN.

Only believe it when Bob Cass announces the deal. He ITK.

He's going to Malaga

would be great for Juve no?

We'll probably forget about him and he'll end up stuck at OT for another year sadly.

He doesn't deserve a cool nickname.

Yup. I'm starting to remember it now. Dude was unbelievable. With all those good wingers and Rooney and Kagawa, Man Utd will be scary.

On the other hand, if that won't push City to make crazy signings, I don't know what will. Shit is about to go down.

Ever the doubting Thomas, Clegg. What can Arsenal even do? We won't renew the contract, Juve are out of the picture, he doesn't want to go to City, he wants United. There's nothing they can do but sell, take the money and swallow the bitter pill.

Hated RvN, with a passion. Did fuck all then popped up with a goal.

A mate of mine in primary school came and asked me how you spelt his name on the back of the shirt (he was buying a United shirt) and I told him to fuck off, in kid speak of course.
