Radical new treatment for RVP

Crocked Arsenal star Robin Van Persie will try a radical new technique in an attempt to get over his ankle injury in double quick time. The goal ace was injured playing for Holland in a friendly international against Italy on Saturday and was expected to be out for two months. Now, after hearing about a new technique available in Serbia that involves massage using fluid from a placenta, the 26-year-old is determined to undergo treatment in a bid to be back on the field sooner. "I will fly to the Balkans to meet with a female doctor. She is vague about her methods but I know she massages you using fluid from a placenta. I am going to try. It cannot hurt and, if it helps, it helps," confirmed Van Persie on Monday. A placenta is a membrane expelled by women during childbirth.
