He's naturally left footed but scores with both feet Your current love in with RVP says it all really. I have never heard you rave about him like this before, you've barely mentioned him let alone in the 'world class' bracket and even less so as the 'worlds best striker'. Yet here you are lauding someone who is 29 years old with one prolific calendar year of goals as some sort of god given superstar. You don't just become world class just like that at that age, if so Leven is world class because he was the scorer of a goal that even the likes of Messi might never be able to emulate. He's RVP, the injury crocked, hit and miss forward at a mid table PL club - get over it.

While moobs is clearly in love with RVP, to be fair journalists, managers, football commentators everywhere are raving about him at the moment due to a very impressive run of form.
You are out on your own in not rating him - just as moobs is with his not rating of Rooney

The only thing stopping Robin Van Persie being viewed as a world class striker by Baldy is a red football shirt with the word 'Emirates' written on it. Change the word to 'Aon' and all of a sudden you have a world-class striker who is better than Messi and Ronaldo combined. ;D

Not really, wouldn't wish injury on any player seeing as my future premier league playing days were caught short by injury....
Just stating fact. He's always picks up injurys. Arsenal are nothing without him

Oh go on, admit it you two. Repeat after me:- Robin Van Persie is the best striker in The, Premier League. You know it, I know it - just admit it, and then we can all move on.

What's have arsenal and RVP won since he's been at the club? What did Northern Ireland win with George Best? Nothing. Shows how shit Best was then doesn't it.

I'm sure that very argument has even been used by baldy and junior when it suits them!

Baldy said they are not that great with him, I agree. Look at the records with him in the team.
They've not win nothing since he's been at the club. Arsenal as a club are at a standstill. Every season is about finishing 4th. They lack ambition.
Maybe Wenger has took them as far as he can...

That doesn't mean he is a lesser player just because Arsenal aren't winning trophies, and that is what you are trying to imply.

Every season is about finishing 4th. They lack obscene amounts of cash that they can spunk away on players will-nilly.

Slight typo doesn't hide the fact that arsenal are no longer a threat to Chelsea & the Manchester clubs...

So boogaloo, arsenal don't spend? Of course they spend, but not stupid amounts willy-nilly on over-rated players. You would never see Wenger wasting the sort of money that has been spent on players like Veron, Shevchenko, Berbatov, Torres etc. He is far more shrewd than Fergie, Mankini, Villa Boas and Dalgiesh

Mankini, kinky devil..
Also berbatov played his part in winning the title for Manchester United. Money well spent, I'd say.
You've got a point on the others

Arshavin a bargain was he? They got their £15millions worth out of him. Same can't be saif for Berbatov, Veron, Carrick, Anderson, Hargreaves, Kleberson, Djemba Djemba, Forlan, Saha etc etc
