Legends: According to most diehard Gunners Fans the ultimate Arsenal player was Dutchman Dennis Bergkamp, although Thierry Henry, Cliff Bastin and Liam Brady all come very close.

Current Heroes: At 23, Spaniard Cesc Fabregas is already proving himself a fine successor to former captain Tony Adams and is now considered one of the finest young midfielders in soccer today.

Greatest Moment: The 2004 Arsenal team went undefeated for the entire season to win the Premier League.

Worst Days: A decidedly under par Arsenal team lose the 1969 League Cup Final to lowly third division Swindon Town.
