Chelsea 3-5 Arsenal | Robin Van Persie hat trick, and needing a win | Premier League

Robin van Persie's hat-trick inspired Arsenal to an incredible victory against Chelsea as their recovery gathered momentum in a Stamford Bridge thriller.

The Gunners captain demonstrated his importance to the team by taking his tally to an outstanding 28 goals in 27 Premier League games as Chelsea slumped again after their shock defeat at QPR last week.

And it was a miserable afternoon for Chelsea and England captain John Terry at the end of a week in which has he faced allegations of racial abuse against QPR's Anton Ferdinand - claims he vehemently denies.

Terry scored to give Chelsea the lead just before half-time but then slipped crucially late on to gift Van Persie a goal and a lead Arsenal never relinquished.

Frank Lampard had headed Chelsea in front after 14 minutes but, in a game strewn with defensive errors, Van Persie put Arsenal back in contention from Gervinho's pass.

@Skrileks I think wenger would be super boring without his accent... hahahaha.

[Skrileks]

@2psah2 Too much people.

Nothing racist in this, I don't discriminate people for their accent.

But this video surprised me, and marked me ^^ It seems he doesn't make any efforts, he has the same accent that a french kid aged 12. It doesn't go unnoticed, really.

But it doesn't make me a racist, or anything like that ...

[2psah2]

@Skrileks Who cares about an accent?

@snackopolis They Must Be TERRY Fied To See The Scoreboard

[Skrileks]
