Where did you hear this? I'm not seeing this anywhere yet... Awful, if true.

Meanwhile, Robin van Persie to Manchester United is done. Or almost done. Or not quite done. Or some way from being done, depending on which paper you read this morning. The general consensus is that if United stick £20m down then we’ll sell. We’re holding out for that kind of money and rightly so. And although van Persie would become far less the legend and much more the traitor if he went there, I wonder if this is how he and his half-wit agent envisaged things turning out when he released that statement.

That caught me a bit off-guard, I'll confess. I don't see it working out that well for either party, but we'll have to see.

At least Van Persie doesn't have to move house now that he's joined Man Utd.

He can just get a lift up from London with all the other fans!
