I don't think anyone has said it better than the Professor himself...
"I have seen many great players over 30 years but Robin van Persie's first touch is just exceptional.
After that he has the qualities of left-footed players; they are very quick to finish, have great movement in the box and are very intelligent. When you look at great players, they are on the move and everybody else stands and watches the ball. That is the difference. They look like they attack the ball all the time but in fact it is because they anticipate a lot and they are a little bit ahead of the other players.
It's not the way you finish, it's the way you move that gets you into the position.”
