Great pic Ricky.
An Arsenal Reminisce
Theo desecrates the number. Should be stripped of his back with a cat o 9iner.

Not only does he roll back the years, but he also shows the element to his play that AW has not been able to replace with any of Fabregas, Cazorla or Ozil. As much as DB was a playmaker he was first and foremost a goal scorer with a goal scorer's intent either via his team mates or himself, whereas the others were midfielders and their first instinct was to play the pass for the assist.
SAF's tactic to target the pass would not have been as successful if we'd had a genuine goal scorer as #10 rather than passing playmakers.

Just over ten years since we sold Thierry Henry to Barcelona... for £16million :doh:
Check the scoreboard.

Can someone tell me against whom did Henry score from the left (a fabregas assist) with us down to 10 men? It was from the edge of the box to the right corner...
Its lingering in my head but cant figure out what match that was.
Blackburn 07?
Yep, thats the goal. Thanks Ray!
That reminds me. There was a question I had for a long time and I searched everywhere but couldn't find the answer for. Does anyone remember a game where we had a freekick on the edve of the box slightly to the right favouring a left footer and Henry stepped up and took it with his left foot and I think hit the post. Was before out blackcurrant kit against I think a team in blue but can not pinpoint it. Anyone remember something like that happen?
Yeah that definitely happened. Don't remember the club though.
Yeah been searching for that for years and no one seems to remember it. Felt like I may have been remembering wrong or something.

Oh man the talent in that squad.
Of the 25 players pictured, I reckon about 17 could be starters in our current first team.
Can't believe that squad didn't win the premier league in 98-99, 02-03 and 04-05.
02-03 was the worst one. I reckon that was the best football we played under Wenger until our slump. Would have meant 3 consecutive titles for us too.

I reckon 15. The whole front row is obviously in, who else? I have Jens, Fabregas, Flamini.
Most of the backbenchers were just youth players at the time. Our squad was spectacularly small.

An indictment of Wenger, if ever there was one.
Our squad in 98-99 was very different.
