Der Shovel posted:Talk is that RVP has a £10 million loyalty clause in his contract, which he will receive if he sees out his contract at United. Considering his form since ... well, since that game against Villa when United won title number 20, really, does anyone see any chance of that happening? He's not been as bad as people say imo. I think he's getting unwarranted stick when he's not getting service. For people who watched the United match on tele on saturday, was I going mad or did RVP start in a deeper number 10 role before going upfront when di maria went off

He scored three goals on the training ground so I had a good feeling for him.

Ta, I thought so. seemed the plan was to push Di Maria up more as well but couldnt really tell

straight up brolic posted:yeah but that was the washington post which is much more trash than the guardian and to be fair even dbzsibot is atleast based off real information.
