how many premier league goals did van persie score
Robin van Persie After failing to score against Fulham, van Persie scored again for Arsenal, this time against Wigan Athletic to make the score 4â€“0 to Arsenal on 3 December 2011.[56] He then added to his tally with the only goal of the game against Everton, an exquisite volley from an Alex Song long ball.[57] The following match, versus Aston Villa, saw him score a penalty and provide an assist.[58] Van Persie's final goal of the 2011 calendar year came in Arsenal's one-goal win over Queens Park Rangers on the last day of the year. The goal took his tally for the year to 35 goals, one short of Alan Shearer's Premier League record.[59]
List of Premier League players with 100 or more goals During the 1995–96 season, Alan Shearer became the first player to score 100 Premier League goals, and holds the record for the fewest games taken to reach 100, doing so in 124 appearances. He also holds the record for most goals scored in the Premier League.[1][2] After Shearer, Sergio Agüero is the second-fastest to 100 goals, doing so in 147 games.[3]
