Arsenal Revive With Robin Van Persie Back or is it just ADVANTAGE Netherlands ?

Kaustav BoseApr 9, 2010

With a few tough games like against Spurs and Man city still awaiting Arsenal Boss Arsene wenger should really be pleased to welcome ROBIN VAN PERSIE back to the Arsenal main squad.

With Cesc Fabregas out the Gunners are really short of fire power and although young Niklaus Bendtner has delivered of late, having a striker in the form of Robin can only be a lot more relieving..back after a horrible injury in a match against Italy, the Dutch sensation has really been missed by all the Gunner fans,,especially against Barcelona in their home encounter.

Really with the attacking flair that Van Persie shows on pitch, he truly is an asset whom any coach, team or fan would miss..however after the injury to his leg, which really is not the first time. Robin may just well be a little cautious,and reasonably so, with th World Cup looming, and the Dutch seems to be a certainty to fly to south Africa even after such short playing time under his belt.

In the duration that RVP played this season in the premier league, he has already scored seven goals and surely was looking set for a Big season ahead, however the flurry of incidents has made sure that his ill-luck with his fitness continued. Robin is a great player though and undoubtedly, when fit is EPL's one of the best and most prolific strikers..One thing is for sure, if Robin is not injured again, and features in the last few critical encounters of Arsenal. His form and play will not go unnoticed by the Dutch coach,Van Marwijk. Though a certain choice I think, Van marwijk will surely want that he shows signs of what he is really capable of . Things would certainly look for better for the Netherlands that way.

Arsenal however are adrift of the leaders Chelsea in the EPL, and unless both Manchester united and Chlesea themselves lose, the gunners cannot claw back to surpass them for the title. So it may prove to be that RVP addition is a too little too late for the Gunners to take much advantage from. However , they are just one point short of the defending champions, Manchester united, and if manchester carry their pathetic run, Arsenal may well replace them for the second spot, which would be a great achievement anyways, taking the injuries and the likes into consideration. The foresaid achievement could also instill pride in the team to do further better next time.

At the end of it though i would like to say that RVP's return is of more joy to Netherland than Arsenal, the facts & arguments being already stated. Looks to me, we are still somehow nearing the end of a pretty dramatic season in the Premier League...and although ridiculous rumors like felipe melo for RVP swap, will hopefully not occur, the top four including Arsenal are certainly heading for a new look new season. Wenger would hope however that Arsenal' s assets including RVP stay with him,and they can mount a more serious challenge next season...when it all starts from Gameweek 1...again..
