Van Persie Opened His 2008 Season

Van Persie opened his 2008– 09 account on 31 August with a prop in Arsenal's 3– 0 alliance triumph over Newcastle United. On 29 October, he scored his fiftieth vocation Arsenal objective in a 4– 4 home draw with North London derby rivals Tottenham, however was hit with his first red card of the season on 1 November subsequent to thumping down goalkeeper Thomas Sørensen with a shoulder charge in a 2– 1 misfortune to Stoke City. Sørensen later confessed to "prodding" Van Persie trying to incite a reaction. On 30 November, he scored a prop against Chelsea to enable Arsenal to dig out from a deficit and get a 2– 1 triumph at Stamford Bridge. On 21 December 2008, he scored an awesome objective against Liverpool, which was later named the second BBC Goal of the Month of his career. With commander Cesc Fàbregas harmed and general remain in captain Manuel Almunia rested, Van Persie captained Arsenal out of the blue on 3 January 2009 for the club's 3– 1 FA Cup Third Round triumph over Plymouth Argyle. Van Persie scored Arsenal's first and third objectives, while the second was an aftereffect of his cross being diverted into the net by a Plymouth player for a possess goal.



In January 2009, each Arsenal objective that month was either scored or helped by Van Persie, which earned him the club's Player of the Month award. His most uplifting show being against Hull City, where he hit the post with a freekick, and gave three helps to his partners; he later got the Man of the Match grant. On 24 February, Van Persie scored a urgent punishment that earned Arsenal a 1– 0 prevail upon Roma in the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 experience, after he was fouled by safeguard Philippe Mexès. He lined it up with a fifth Champions League objective by changing over another punishment against Villarreal in a 3– 0 triumph.

On the last day of the Premier League, Van Persie scored a support against Stoke City, which promised him for the second time in his vocation as Arsenal's best scorer. He had his best season in general for Arsenal as he scored 11 Premier League objectives, alongside an association driving 11 helps and a profession best of 20 objectives in all rivalries. Van Persie was named the 2008– 09 Arsenal.com Player of the Season.

The Who's The Kids Are Alright twinkled over the PA framework as Arsenal came join in the festivities. Arsène Wenger should in some cases figure whatever is left of the world does not trust him. All things considered, this was seven days that began with his group chastised - properly - for a spoiled tomato execution. At that point he needed to stand up against the scoffs went for his fundamental goalscorer, and at the same time the fans have been freezing about regardless of whether he will sign an accomplished midfielder before the window is bolted until January.

For a hour and a half, the best piece of 60,000 devotees overlooked their stresses and their strife, and accepted. There were some generous boos towards the end, yet they were coordinated solely at Joey Barton, who showed up on a football pitch since he was discharged from jail. Kevin Keegan made an ardent resistance of his disliked player a short time later - he felt constrained to tick off Samir Nasri, who put in a reprisal handle on Barton which brought the temperature up in the away hole.

Average Barton. Two minutes on the pitch and he figured out how to flavor up an evening that had already been without an excess of pressure. Until the point that then it was a basic story of Arsenal having fun enormously against a Newcastle group who acknowledged they were second-best without an excessive amount of protection. Mike Ashley summed up the sentiment most in the meeting area halfway during that time half when he brought down a half quart and shook his head in dismay.

They were well underneath the standard that earned them a point at Old Trafford on the opening few days of the season. As Keegan called attention to, even the best groups have key players and Arsenal had Cesc Fábregas here, while Manchester United missed their boss Cristiano Ronaldo.

To Arsenal's help, it was not simply Fábregas who was back. Emmanuel Adebayor and Robin van Persie, who had played like shadows in the initial two diversions of the season, both rediscovered their magic. Van Persie scored twice and got the attention. Adebayor worked vigorously and unselfishly, and the nature of his execution prevailed upon the segment of the group who had been on his back.

Upheld by a midfield who worked perfectly, this was simple on-the-eye Arsenal. Cocksure and overflowing with creation, they would have invoked a more significant scoreline had Shay Given not given a shot-ceasing masterclass in the Newcastle objective. The main drawback for Arsenal was Van Persie limping off the pitch similarly as he had worked the jam into a state looking like a mass love-in. 'He went for a X-beam to keep an eye on his lower leg. Ideally nothing is broken,' said Wenger.
