Robin van Persie renews his commitment to Manchester United, talks about Moyes

Robin van Persie has stated that he wants to remain at Manchester United not only until the end his contract, but beyond that in a new interview with the club's official website.

Speaking to ManUtd.com, Van Persie said:"I don't mind if my performances get dissected and people criticise what I've done on the pitch. They can talk about my game 24/7 for all I care... and a lot of those opinions and criticisms may actually be right. So I don't mind that.

"What I need to address are the situations when people are taking it upon themselves to think for me, make assumptions, or interpret things as if they are me. Last time I checked my head was still attached to my body, so I'm the only one who knows exactly what I'm feeling and that is not what I or the fans have been reading.

"The truth is I'm very happy here at this club. I signed for four years and I'd be delighted to stay even longer, beyond the next two years I have left on my contract. This is how I feel, although it's not what has been suggested in the media."

So, good news, although it's not clear if something being wrong was mere speculation or whether he's had a change of heart - either way, the club wish to make this clear.

Van Pesie also outlined his relationship with Moyes, stating: "I can tell you that Moyes' sessions and the things he says in his team meetings are spot-on. I really enjoy working under him and I'm absolutely convinced things will pick up and we'll turn it around."

Good signs all round, thankfully.
