Robin van Persie's a super player, great to watch, great control to his game, great left-foot.  But he ain't no really super prolific goalscorer, whether he's playing or not!  The top, top goalscorers score over once every two games.  Van Persie's been a once every three-four games scorer - always has.  He's more an old-fashioned No.10 than a No.9.  Not a top goalscorer at all!  Probbaly the best footballing striker in the Premier League - but that gets you nothing in Fantasy League...

The goalscorer this season will be:

Rooney, Hernandez, Torres, Drogba, Suarez, and it's really a gamble on players such as Aguero, Dzecko and Bent who is a great goalscorer but will hugely suffer from the loss of Young and Downing.

Confused 
 
I think you should have a look at Van Persie's goal scoring stats for both Arsenal and the Netherlands. His goalscoring ratio is a lot lot better than a goal every 3 or 4 games.

He has averaged a goal every 1.8 games over the last 3 seasons.

He also takes a lot of Arsenal set pieces and gets more assists than most strikers.

He might struggle this season though if Arsenal struggle in the league.

if Van persie if fit for long enough he should walk it if not illg be lookign uniteds way, take your pick between the two. With Ashley Young in I can see the goals from forwards going up a good bit and the oppostie side of the coin will be goals for Bent being fewer and farther between. I always just go for an e/w shot, going to back odenwingie e/w @ 50's this year
