Wenger didn't take any notice of Vieira or Henry so why would he take any notice of RVP?
He's openly come out and said that we rely on RvP. He is our plan A and our plan B.
Also, it's a little harsh of people to slate Wenger for 'lying'. Of course he wants RvP to stay, but given the option of 1 season then absolutely nothing, or £25m+, then it's hard not to take the money and reinvest in a new striker (Giuseppe Rossi for example).
Still, I hope he stays.
You mean like how he reinvested the money we got for Anelka? Overmars? Vieira? Henry? Adebayor? Fabregas? Nasri?
Wenger is full of shit from top to bottom, and you mean its hard not to take the money and "lose" it, money from player sales has been disappearing for the best part of a decade.
Yep, it wasn't just since the stadium move either!
Wenger has never won the league and then built on the team. He also usually takes a season or two to replace those that leave (not sure how long it was after selling petit and overmars we got gilberto and pires).
Vieira left, even though it was the invincible season, because he didn't think Wenger was being ambitious enough in the transfer market. Now it seems RVP is considering doing the same!
