Probably the most attractive football Arsenal ever played. In my opinion including the Invincible seasons. Everything a team going forward needed they had, even without Rosicky and van Persie for large parts of the season.
That, my friend, is what we call talent. What separates those guys from others. Even if people often try to talk that part of the game down.
Absolutely brilliant dribbler, can get through 5 players, out any situation⌠Rarely ever lost the ball. Brilliant control with both feet, a truly ambidextrous player. But generally I wouldnât say he had great decision making when it came to end product and when it came to the final ball, actually thought he was quite poor there - compared to elite attacking midfielders/wingers at that time. If he had that he would be world class, but in my eyes he wasnât. Although he compansated for the mistakes he made with great work rate and energy, always appreciated him.
Was quite prominent that season in the CL games, where he played in his preferred number 10 role.
Doesnât matter how many times I see Kuyt take Hleb out in that CL game, I still canât believe it wasnât given a penalty.
Our 07/08 team was so good to watch. Despite not winning anything it was comfortably our best team at the Emirates, only 3 defeats in the league and all by a single goal.
One touch madness too - oh how I miss the beautiful game !!
He canât be all that clever given that he chose to go to Barcelona.
I wonder whether he regrets that decision.
He won the treble right? Didnât work out too badly. I donât think he played much but he was a part of something really unique. Isnât that what team sports are all about?
He looks like he is gonna murder someone 
Such a cheap penalty for them
tbh Cesc goes down like Bruno Fernandes.
How is that a penalty for fuck sake.
Ahh, the time period where Poolâs transfer strategy was to sign every crackhead they could.
Itâs only Sheffield United 
I would post this in the RvP threadâŚbut I donât want to start a referendum on whether he was a cunt or not. 
Whatever you think of him the enormous talent he had for football is unquestionable.
I canât even look at nostalgia shit from when we were good anymore.
There was really no way we could expand Highbury, huh?
Nope the council wouldnât allow it unfortunately, that was definitely a giant kick to the crotch.
