He's smashed the old record for scoring in consecutive away games, it was 6 by Drogba, van Persie's scored in 9 consecutive away games and is still going - Premiership's best striker when fully fit for me, he wasn't far off the golden boot despite missing much of the season.
In fact I'd struggle to think of a better striker in world football, it's just a shame the rest of the Arsenal team aren't up to his standards.
too injury prone for my tastes
he'll probably leave arsenal in the summer
True, he is very injury prone, which has held him back some what. We might lose Fabregas, Nasri and/or Clichy, but not him, he seems very happy here and seems to think he owes us for all the time he's been injured.
that may be true but he's been carrying the team over the past few weeks
he may start to feel as though he's not going to win things at arsenal
Maybe he's too happy at Arsenal and that's part of the problem! I really don't see him going unless someone else makes the decision for him, but if he did go in the next few years it'd be for a high price.
If I had to choose one premiership player from another club, it would be Van Persie.Quote:

He's spent at least a third of each of the last 3 seasons missing through injury.
