Robin Van Persie, “Myself, Eduardo, Nicklas and Carlos Vela can all play the main role up front”

Submitted by Renzo on July 27, 2009 – 16:30 10 Comments

Having sold Emmanuel Adebayor, Arsenal may be close to sign a new striker, although Robin Van Persie believes what the club has at the moment may suffice.

He told arsenal.com:

It depends how the boss wants to play – with one or two strikers up front

But myself, Eduardo, Nicklas and Carlos Vela can all play the main role up front. So there are at least four options.

However if you ask me I am not against a new player as well because it would strengthen our squad.

  • georgie_archbld says:

    I am quite sure that Van Persie is right. Wenger has various options with these 4 strikers.
    Personally I prefer Van Persie and Carlos ‘chip’ Vela, but Nicklas and Eduardo are also super players.

    get a dm we dnt need a striker

  • Davi says:

    Im glad van persie achknowledged carlos vela. Wenger seemed to forget about him earlier and he really is going to be pure class.
    Walcott would be an interesting option if we had an injury crisis as well, so I dont think we necessarily need to add a new striker to the squad unless one of them left.
    A player like vucinic or huntelaar would seriously improve our chances of winning something though…

  • Casicky says:

    I would av really loved to have Huntelaar but slowly bt surely um startin to doubt whether we gon get any signings in now its jus dat Wengers mind is so sublime dat sometimes I really think maybe he has tip-toed to the other side of jus plain losing it coz I feel lately (past few yrs) Wenger has left a lot of things to chance and quite frankly he aint da best gambler around so maybe he shud abandon dat kind of mode of coachin

  • Herbert says:

    Well,I don’t know if you have watched the last 2 games of Arsenal,but looks like Senderos is set to play the defensive midfielder role…

  • peter says:

    Sure they can, but they are hardly a terrifying prospect for opponents.

    The best line-up

    —————- almunia —————–
    sagna — Ver/toure* — djourou/gallas — clichy/gibbs
    ———— Nasri —— Song/Denillson ———-
    —– Theo ———- Cesc ——– Arshavin
    ———- RVP/Eduardo —– Nikki B./vela ——–

    Killer line-up!!!

    • graystone micheal says:

      i think i agree with vp in the sense that this four player are all superb but one or two more right footers would also help in taking us back to our glorious days
