Arsenal striker Robin van Persie has said that he is ready to put his body through the game against Chelsea at the weekend in order to help Arsenal pick up another vital three points. But, the Dutchman admitted he was not year 100 percent.
van Persie said: "I am fit if the boss picks me. I am available.
"However, I am not 100 percent yet. You need games. You need rhythm. I can easily make 60-65 minutes, but after two months out you cannot make 90 minutes.
"Maybe next time, I can do 75-80 minutes, or come on as a sub - I don't mind."
The Dutchman added: "It can always be better, but I have been out for two months and I'm quite pleased about some passes. I put Theo (Walcott) through a few times and that's my game.
"I want to mix things up, I want to pass the ball and my aim is to be all round player."
