Well, I think that's a good choice!

I wouldn't believe it until it comes from a more respectable source, the mirror make up so many stories, it's hardly a conclusive story anyway "
Club insiders believe van ­Persie now wants to stay." I would think if RVP is going to stay he will come out and say so himself.

it's just a rumour.. if he stays, then as an arsenal fan i'm glad.. 

It will be fantastic if he does stay. But like Jim and VTM, it's just a rumor.

well he said he will not extend his contract and THEN Arsenal bought: Podolski, Giroud, Cazorla and still there are stories about Sahin and van der Wiel. And now he wanna stay? I don't know what to think about him.

@quikzyyy I think maybe he didn't extend his contract to urge Arsene Wenger to sign some more players. I think he too want's to see the Arsenal squad improve. But you never know.

dont forget kevin mirallas! he's an alternative to ganso i guess.. 

Just tip, never fully trust Mirror. Like Jimskeleton said it made up many fake articles. Just be patient as only time will tell.

Not saying this is a definite impossibility... but an improbability. There are so many issues that come in to play here. Anyway, if he stays without singing a new contract it will be because the club couldn't get a decent enough offer for him. It will say nothing about him making a "u-turn". If, on the other hand he signs a new contract and issues a semi-apology... well, then everything will be back to as it was.

Also, have to agree with jim, VTM, & Ermahgard. The Mirror is a shit source for football updates because they constantly lie through their teeth.
This sentence makes the entire article untrustworthy "The summer ­signings of... Santiago Cazorla, in a
£9million deal from Malaga, have impressed the captain."
There is no way in hell Arsenal bought him for 9 mill. Every reliable source is quoting something between 16-18 mill so this guy clearly doesn't know wtf he's talking about.

i am happy...but ffs.... if he just wanted more money he could have asked!
