Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has backed Robin van Persie to find his goalscoring form and insists the striker does not need a rest.
Van Persie, 29, has gone nine games without a goal for United.
But Ferguson is confident that the Netherlands international, who has hit 23 goals for the club this season, will soon start scoring again.
"He doesn't need a rest that's for sure, he's a strong lad with great physique," Ferguson said.
"The goals will come, all strikers have dry spells and you hope it ends quickly, it's part of being a striker."
Van Persie, who joined United from Arsenal for £24m last August,has scored 19 Premier League goals this season, second only to Liverpool's Luis Suarez, who has 22.
