Van Persie 'proud' to join Reds

Robin van Persie says he listened to the "little boy inside me" when deciding whether to make the switch from Arsenal to United.

The Dutch striker, who enjoyed eight successful years with the Gunners, completed his switch to Old Trafford on Friday.

After taking part in his first training session at Carrington, he revealed he’s relishing a new challenge for silverware with the Reds.

The 29-year-old, who will wear no.20 for the Reds, told a press conference on Friday: “I'm proud to be here and looking forward to achieving big things with Manchester United.

“Arsenal are a big club but for me it's a big challenge to get to know players here.

“I had a good session this morning – I noticed every single person was really helpful. It's a friendly club like I'm used to, so it's not a big difference. The language is the same.”

Arsenal fans are certain to be disappointed to see van Persie leave, but the 2011/12 Premier League top scorer was keen to ensure he left the Emirates Stadium on the best possible terms.

“Let me make one thing clear,” he said. “I don't want things to get twisted. From my side and Arsenal’s side now, there are no hard feelings. It’s just certain elements are vital for me and we had different views.

“That's life. Sometimes you disagree on things but I'm here now. That's the main thing and I'm looking forward to a big challenge – the biggest so far in my football life."

He continued: “Everyone knows by now that I'm a lover of football. I'm quite principled in that prospect. It's always difficult to find a perfect match but I do feel this is the perfect match for me.

“Man Utd breathe football. If you look at all players at the club, the stadium and the manager, my choice was made based on those things. When I have to make hard decisions, I always listen to little boy inside me and what he wants. That little boy was screaming for MU."

Sir Alex Ferguson has already declared his satisfaction with the forward options he has at his disposal this season, and many Reds fans are excited by the prospect of van Persie partnering Wayne Rooney.

“Of course I'd love to play with Wayne,” van Persie said. “I’ve said many times before he is a world-class player all-round.

“When I look at players, I like to see they can adapt to everything, and he can score goals and make assists, and he works hard.

“Scholes and Giggs are world-class and have been proving it for 20 years now. That had a big impact, definitely. I'd like to say we are all in it together to achieve greatness. Every single player is as important.”

this is word for word an email ive just sent to an arsenal fan at work

looks like ANOTHER trophy less season for LeArse- Poor Richard, Poor, Poor Richard.

But I do have a request for you mate? Since you've got so many empty trophy cabinets at the emirates, can we borrow some to fit ours in?

Staring at that picture and reading those comments from RvP with a big ol goofy grin on my face, I realized two things.

1) Pride has been restored. The biggest and best players are still desperate to join us. We're still an attraction.

2) Fear has been restored. I'm getting the impression that the ABU's are running a bit scared this afternoon.

All is right with the universe.

lolz - During the press conference

"SAF: “This is the best league in the world. Messi wouldn’t score 72 goals in this league.”"

""We got beat on goal difference last season and that won't happen again. Trust me on that."

- Sir Alex"

Boss: Maybe one more

Sir Alex Ferguson has hinted that he could still make another signing before the transfer deadline at the end of the month.

Despite splashing out on Arsenal striker Robin van Persie, there has still been speculation that the Reds could be interested in adding another left-back or midfielder to the squad.

After being asked by MUTV if he is happy with his group going into the new season, the manager suggested that there is a mystery name still in his thoughts if a deal can be done.

"I think that is maybe it [in terms of signings this summer]," he conceded. "Maybe in one other position.

"We have spent a big amount of money and, if I need to go to the owners, I am sure they would say 'yes'. But it's only if a certain player would become available."


Who is it ! who the fuck is it ?

[tommyred]

Someone should do the honours and move this to the General United section.

The boy is our player.

RvP: "I spoke to Van Der Sar last week. He game me a real positive feeling about this club."
