Robin van Persie: Scores First of the Season

Van Persie scored in the 13th minute of Manchester United's surprising 5-3 loss to Leicester City on Sunday.

Analysis:

Van Persie's goal was his first of the season, heading in a perfect cross from fellow-striker Falcao, who started up front with RVP. With Juan Mata moving to the bench, it appears that manager Louis van Gaal has decided to play Falcao and RVP together, which could wreck havoc on opposing defenses.
