International career
Robin van Persie received his first full international cap against Romania on 4 June 2005. Despite not being an automatic first choice to start for Arsenal, Van Persie was selected as one of the Netherlands' forwards for the 2006 FIFA World Cup by national coach Marco Van Basten. His first World Cup goal came in the group match against Côte d'Ivoire, a free kick in the 23rd minute.
During the Euro 2008 qualifiers, Van Persie made an impact during games against Luxembourg and Belarus. Two goals in either halves and an assist helped the Netherlands claim a 3–0 win. He continued his form in the next two games, scoring against Bulgaria in a 1–1 draw and also in the 2–1 victory against Albania a few days later.
He has scored 7 goals out of 27 appearances.

My comments:
Extremely talented player with a wicked left foot...He is yet to fulfill his potential in my book..i know he is capable of more..he's got a strong left foot, he's a free kick specialist , good close ball control , a composed finisher and an excellent dribbler..He has shouldered more responsibility now that Henry has left. My only criticism of him is that he tends to go missing for large parts of the game..and he seems to pick a major injury every season.
