Arteta hails 'on fire' Van Persie

Mikel Arteta believes “on fire” Arsenal captain Robin van Persie is up there with the world’s best strikers after his brace helped fire the Gunners into the last 16 of the Champions League.

The 28-year-old Dutchman netted twice in the second half of the 2-1 win over Borussia Dortmund which secured safe passage into the knockout stages with a match to spare, and top spot in Group F.
