Norwich City striker Ricky van Wolfswinkel admits Manchester United ace Robin van Persie had a big say in his move to Carrow Road.
Van Wolfswinkel scored on his Premier League debut in Norwich's 2-2 draw with Everton.
He said: "When I was with the national team, I spoke to Robin Van Persie before I signed for Norwich. He said that Norwich had made a big impression on him.
"He said that they were always a difficult team to play against and that their crowd really got behind them. I know that they beat Manchester United 1-0 last season.
"From the first moment that I signed for Norwich, this was the day that I've been waiting for; to play in front of a full house at Norwich. I like the whole atmosphere around the club, the stadium and the city. For me it's just the perfect place to play."
