Robin van Persie ruffled more than a few feathers when he left Arsenal for Manchester United.
The Dutch striker then made matters worse by going on to win the first Premier League title of his career in his inaugural season at Old Trafford while his former club, without their talisman, had to settle for a fourth-place finish.
Van Persie spent eight years at Arsenal and grew into the club's most important player before Sir Alex Ferguson decided he needed the Netherlands international to take his Man United side one step further in what would be his final season in football management.
