Wenger launches agent swipe

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has made it clear over who is to blame over the Robin van Persie saga.

The striker recently admitted he wouldn’t be signing a new deal with the Gunners and Wenger believes the fault lies with his agent Kees Vos.

"I wouldn’t like to comment too much on that situation because you’re not always sure that it’s van Persie’s statement, you know," he said.

What a comprehensive article this is, I was enthralled from start to finish (about 30 seconds). It must have taken you ages to write such a lengthy and in depth analysis of the Van Persie agent situation.

Wenger,
You sound like you're protecting RvP. Have you not spoken with him directly to ascertain his position? Clearly it sounds as if he wants to leave and there's no problem with letting a player go who does not want to be at a club that has supporting him throughout his numerous injuries and rough patches. There are plenty of methods that players use to communicate these days and RvP has not said anything to contradict the statement that appeared on HIS website.
RvP...thanks for your time at the club, thanks for your goals, captaincy, and leadership when you were committed. Arsenal move onward and upward with or without you.
