Depends on how many years you think he can offer the club. Drogba is an animal at 34 at the top of his game in the Champions League.
For once I have full confidence in our coaches and the physical preparation of our players. We had the fewest injuries last season, and they seem to know why players get injuries. Thanks to Rollie I also know that van Persie doesn't have any recurring injuries as well.

Van Persie is so much better than Suarez, it isn't even funny. Suarez runs alot but he absolutely zero brain cells. He losses the ball too much because he plays with his head down all the time. Van Persie was better than Suarez at his age too despite his injury problems
Moggi is an idiot for comparing Van Persie to that Donkey Boriello. Van Persie is more of a Van Basten/Bergkamp type player.

Well yeah, that's always the big question mark. What's not a question mark, is that his value (as for every player over 30) will start declining quite soon. You'd basically be signing him at the worst possible time.
From a sporting point of view, there's not much to argue about. From a financial (or economic, if you want) point of view, it makes little sense.
Haven't been following the transfer news that closely, so I don't know how real the RVP rumours are. But I personally think there's absolutely no way that we'll spend this much on a (foreign
) 28 year old player in the last year of his contract.
While some of our recent moves on the market may not always have been a success on the field, there was usually sound financial thinking behind it (spreading costs, minimizing risks, net overall costs, (potential) sales value, etc). And I can't quite see how that would relate to RVP.
Oh, and I'd say Drogba is a bit of an exception.
Such a brilliant player...
