Wenger praises top Gunner Robin

06 November 2009 09:30
The Dutchman has looked in top form in the Gunners' impressive start to the campaign.[LNB]After putting a succession of injuries behind him, van Persie is showing the type of form that has drawn favourable comparisons with rival forwards.[LNB]Wenger feels van Persie's all-round play, his ability to create as well as score goals, gives him the edge over the likes of Didier Drogba, Fernando Torres and Wayne Rooney.[LNB]"For me Robin is the best striker in the league at the moment, because he is a great link player, and that's what I like first," said Wenger.[LNB]"We play a collective game so it's very important that the target man in our team links well with our other players.[LNB]"I wouldn't swap him for anyone. He knows how we play, we play together for four or five years now with all the team and everybody knows the movement of each other.[LNB]"He has adapted to our style and is suited to our style, like (Didier) Drogba is suited to the Chelsea style.[LNB]"I have a huge respect for Drogba, he is a top class player, he is a fighter, he scores in the big games. In every single big game he scores. I know what kind of player he is."[LNB][LNB] Wolves v Arsenal. Click here to bet.
