Robin Van Persie: What Is He Thinking? (The Interactive EPL Game)

William GishJun 7, 2018

Welcome to the third installment of an interactive experiment.

During the course of this slideshow, you will be presented with a series of photographs of an athlete—this week, Arsenal's frail freight train Robin van Persie.

You will also be presented with four options for each photo and asked to choose (via the comments section below) what he's thinking in each one.

For instance, if in the first slide you think Persie is thinking option A, simply write "1. A" below.

Let the games begin...

Ahhhhh!
