Wenger?

From @WhoScored on Twitter:

Robin van Persie: Has scored with 24 of his 29 attempts on target from inside the box in the PL this season, with only 5 saved

 

[Calaen]

That's a very sweet number! although I bet 20 of them are 2 yard tap ins from lolcott

Still, the lads having a fantastic 14 months and I hope he stays fit!!!

 

[cHodAX]

RvP in a great team would be doing 40 a season, he is fucking lethal when on form.

 

[Corran]

You mean his fucking lethal when he isnt injuried every 4weeks

 

[cHodAX]

Well he has been injured alot for a long time and his scoring record is still mighty impressive but this season he has looked utterly lethal. The sharpness of some of his finishes is just scary.

 

[soze]

I have said it often and this year he is proving me right. A fit RVP is the best finisher currently playing in the Premiership.

 

[megadave]

I remember arguing with a bunch of Utd fans 5 years ago that RVP was better than Rooney when not injured, he's finally justifying that claim.

Pleased with our line up tonight, been waitng for it all season infact. Whether it works is another matter though, Napoli are so sweet at counter attacking so i'm not too hopeful.

Word! I believe 4-2-3-1 suits us perfectly with the players we have right now.

 

[eksdee]

There is no way we are coming out of this game with a clean sheet. God damn Napoli are brilliant on the counter.

 

[Ch3tan]

Yeah, good luck to you, but I don't see you going through, even though you'll win tonight.

 

[Everz]

Seems to be only one team at the Bridge tonight.

 

[Ch3tan]

Another assist for Kaka, he is truly back.

 

[Ch3tan]

Brilliant ball and header there.

 

[Everz]

And thus my bet goes out the window. Had a tenner on Ronaldo to score the opener :|.

 

[eksdee]

Fuck yes Drogba you beautiful specimen.

 

[eksdee]

Luiz makes my nerves bad.

 

[Vladamir]

Essien looks a shadow of the player he once was

 

[eksdee]

Yeah. He's done sadly. Injuries took their toll.

 

[megadave]

same with ashley cole, minus the injuries

 

[eksdee]

Pretty worrying all things considered, with financial fair play, how are we going to replace half our squad? Spent too long persisting with them and being blind to the problems we'd have, well... now.

Doesnt help having manger change after manager change either.

 

[eksdee]

FUCKING YES!!!£"142;UI3RBJK;'JKLN'

edit: and yes I agree Darthshearer

 

[megadave]

Now we'll go all nervous, I know I will

 

[Ch3tan]

Still think it will finish 2-1.

 

[Darthshearer]

Would like to see Chelsea go through

 

[eksdee]

Btw, am I the only one who hears "Zoo *****" and not Zuniga?

 

[Embattle]

Really need to keep pressing.

 

[Ch3tan]

hate to say I told you so....
