Mancini Ready To Spend £30M On Arsenal’s Best Player

Manchester City are preparing a £30 million January bid for Arsenal captainRobin van Persie, according to the Mail on Sunday.

Reports suggest that City will table a massive January offer, believed to be around £30 million, for the Arsenal forward if contract talks between the Dutchman and the north London club do not make any significant progress before the transfer window re-opens.

Sources close to Van Persie claim that the striker has become deeply disillusioned over the summer departures of Cesc Fabregas, Gael Clichy and Samir Nasri and has in the past called for Arsene Wenger to bring in top talent, which many, including RVP, feel the Frenchman has not done.

Van Persie, who yesterday managed to notch up 100 goals for Arsenal after bagging two in the Gunners 3-0 win over Bolton, may choose to follow his former team-mates out of the Emirates this winter, which will undoubtedly have the Arsenal faithful and Wenger extremely worried.

RVP’s current contract expires in 2013, meaning Arsenal may be forced to sell their prized asset next summer if they want to see any financial return.

Let’s hope he pens down a new contract ASAP!!!

Well now, when it comes to football, one man has for many years been the most noticeable, the most controversial, and occasionally the most successful blogger this country has ever produced. His pithy words and abrasive style make him as famous off the pitch as he is on it. This man is Escapini. "I love football. Football she's a cruel mistress. She's, she's more than a mistress. She's a wife, she's a mother, she's a daughter, she's an errant child. She's a… she's a… she can make you laugh, she make you cry. She can bring tears me eyes. She can bring blood to me shoulders. She can bring a kettle to the boil." "Cause football is about nothing, unless it's about something and what it is about, is football."
