Arsenal.com is turning its attention to the World Cup. Sixteen of Arsène Wenger’s squad are in Germany and we asked a reporter from each country to assess the fortunes of each representative. Here’s Uri van Buskn, a reporter from De Telegraaf, on Robin van Persie of Holland:
Who are the other players in his position?
"Robin plays in a right-sided role for Holland and Dirk Kuyt is the only other one who is contesting that position. There were attempts to get Salomon Kalou a Dutch passport because [coach] Marco van Basten had the right-sided position in mind for him, but that didn't work out. Robin is there because Van Basten wants more creativity on the flanks."
