Van Persie vindicated (Video)

Manchester United celebrated their 20th title win in style thanks to a hat-trick from Robin van Persie. The Dutchman joined the Red Devils from fierce rivals Arsenal last summer after becoming disillusioned with the direction the London club was taking and the lack of trophies won during his eight year spell at the club. As the final whistle was blown last night and the players started to celebrate, there was one player with a slightly larger smile than the rest; RVP could jump around with joy at finally collecting a league winners medal after so many years of goalscoring exploits going unrewarded.

Whilst Arsene Wenger will be talking about his developing squad and the potential of his players, Sir Alex Ferguson will face up to his old rival this weekend in a more relaxed condition than normal. His team are champions, with a 16 point lead over Manchester City, and the Scot will already be planning for next season and how he can make his team even stronger. Meanwhile, Robin van Persie will line up against former team mates and friends and will play in front of the fans who adored him for such a long time. His decision to leave the Emirates looks like a good decision now that he has a winners medal to show off and only the hardest of Arsenal fans can begrudge him success after so much dedication and service to the club. 

Ultimately his decision to head north was somewhat forced upon him, as he was coming towards the final years of his career and wanted silverware to show for his years playing in England. After watching players such as Fabregas, Nasri, Clichy, Song and others sold to rivals over his final seasons at Arsenal, he was extremely frustrated that Wenger seemed reluctant to spend on reinvestment and perceived the replacements to be of inferior quality. Now he is surrounded by players of quality and trophy winning experience and at long last can proudly lift the trophy that has evaded him for such a long time.

Hmmm, I'm sure he cares much more about the £250k a week he earns than any trophy! He is just another na$ri!! Next season (as he is past his peek and only gonna get worse!!) he will be on the bench and hardly play and then his career will be over and then what? A couple of medals at United and job done? If it was me I would have much preferred to earn £100k a week and become a legend at a club that has done everything for me then become a traitor! A sell out! A scumbag!! A C**T! RVP will be remembered as just another man utd player! Nothing special and one of many ppl to win something wearing a man united shirt! He will never ever be remembered as a Bergkamp, a Henry, a Cantona or Giggs...in 10 years time ppl won't even talk about him! All he was, was a mercenary who helped man utd win 1 or 2 trophies!
Even though he is a champion and has more money than i can ever dream of...i feel kinda sorry for him! Didnt have the balls or guts to stay loyal to a club, a manager and fans who stuck by him through everything! So selfish and insecure really! Maybe if he stopped trying to rape girls and stopped being injured and tried a bit harder and acted as a better captain, he coulda helped arsenal to win something!
ohhh, she said no, robin! she said no! ohhh, she said no, robin! she said no! You're a c**t robin, you're a c**t!
