Robin van Persie, “I have only won two trophies at Arsenal, that’s not enough”

In a complete interview given to the News of the World, Arsenal striker Robin van Persie was speaking about his childhood, important decisions he took as a youngster and also of Arsenal.

On the Gunners, the 26-year old revealed his hunger for trophies as the FA Cup and the Community Shield are simply not enough, and how Arsene Wenger’s side can aim for silverware this season.


He said:

So far I have only won two trophies at Arsenal – the FA Cup and the Community Shield. That’s not enough and I would hate to finish my career having won only those here.
I desperately want to win the Premier League and the Champions League with Arsenal and I truly believe that’s possible.
But, I get the chance to play with the likes of Fabregas, Arshavin, Eduardo, Walcott, Nasri and Rosicky – great players who play a beautiful game.
Then I watch some teams on TV and think: ‘Oh my God, this is so ugly!’
That helps me realise how special it is to be at a club like this. I want to win it all with Arsenal.
