    The only ‘favourite’ player I can ever have (Video)

    People often ask me ‘Whose you favourite Arsenal player Tom?’, to which I go to answer and then stop.  Who is my favourite player?  I sort of liked RVP and I sort of liked Nasri, but they were never my favourite player, head and shoulders above the rest.

    No, only one man will ever be my favourite player, even though he’s left now I still can’t let go.  He was always my favourite, the best player I ever saw play.  Even when he aged and Thierry came on the seen I stood by him.  I was there when he scored his 100th goal against Oxford United and I was there for many more of his wondrous goals.

    If you haven’t already guessed I am talking about the one, the only, Dennis Bergkamp.  Dennis was an Arsenal player throughout my childhood and his professional attitude and immense talent meant that he instantly became my hero.

    This post is merely a shameless appreciation of a player who I deem to be one of the top 10 ever and certainly my favourite, thank you Dennis.

    deffo a grat 2n est in my eyes but king henry is 2 steps above him,

    Thierry scored more goals, but Dennis build the way to this happen. I explain: when Henry came to Arsenal, the club was already a big force, with a very strong sort of players. When Dennis Arrived, we have some nice players, but the quality of Bergkamp, with no doubt, changed the level of the club. Bergkamp shift the gear up, in other words, Class Player, a monster... and like the author here, he is the best player I ever seen and the motive that I support Arsenal since his arrival and made the Gunners, my team, even that i´m from Brazil, I don´t miss a game. thanks Dennis.
