Who are your favourite Arsenal players? Now and of all-time?

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

All time best I've watched: Henry, Bergkamp although Sanchez may be close to the non-flying dutchmen for sheer natural talent.

Notable faves: Overmars (quickest player I've ever seen in the flesh), Vieira.

However, the award goes to: Emmanuel Eboue.

Bergkamp. Fabulous player, along with Ian Wright. Now ? Meh. Not bothered.

 

[Blackadder]

Good thread. I've just been on North Bank Chat. Interestingly enough, they have gone for Ward, Crumplin and Lua Lua.

 

[DavidinSouthampton]

Dennis Bergkamp and Liam Brady

Both cultured footballers

 

[Mr Banana]

Valur Gislason and Gavin Hoyte

 

[Prince Monolulu]

Sammy Nelson

 

[Moshe Gariani]

Sammy Nelson

If there isn't an NSC account called "Sammy Nelson's Bum" then there should be...

 

[Bold Seagull]

Sammy Nelson

Had to mentioned! Still lives in Hove. Plays racketball up at the Corals squash club.

 

[Shirty]

Colin Pates and Steve Sidwell

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

lolz.

Sanchez and Santi, right now. Great skills, and seem to ENJOY the game. Sanchez seems to be an absolutely TOP bloke, too.

Of all time, Perry Groves and Steve Morrow, obviously.

I thought you would have given honourable mention to one Mr. Steve Gatting who would have lined up alongside yourself at the Goldstone.

 

[StonehamPark]

Pires and Henry.

 

[The Legend that IS Lawro]

Brady and Hudson past, Koscielny present.

 

[mac04]

Clive Allen

 

[Iamapen15]

Currently I don't give a flying f**k... From the past, Colin Pates.

 

[LamieRobertson]

Bob Wilson ..especially when he played in goal

 

[JJ McClure]

Andre Santos for being really shit or Anders Limpar for being Anders Limpar.

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

historically marc overmars and dennis bergkamp

as for now- oxlade chamberlain and alexis sanchez

 

[Norman Potting]

Dennis Bergkamp for being flairtastic. You merely need to Google "Bergkamp, goal" to get this.



There is also one I recall in a European game where he had his back to the goal but still managed to lob the goalkeeper to score. Can't find it on YouTube though.

Liam Brady for not saying "bu**er this, i'm off" after being sacked/resigning but sticking around and helping save the club. Will have to re-read "BAB" and "WWF" to remind myself of the facts.

 

[Jim Bob]

Now - Ox and Sanchez

Past - Brady and Bergkamp

Don't think they have been mentioned - Graham Barrett and Frank Stapleton

 

[Norman Potting]

This Bergkamp goal is almost worth it for the Dutch commentator alone who has his Bjørge Lillelien (Wiki him) moment.
