Off Topic Arsenal all time XI

Okay so Magic Man's thread about favourite players got me thinking about an Arsenal all time XI (it's probably been done before but so what)

So, you have to pick your best XI, no shoehorning players into wrong positions (like Wenger does ) and five subs


.........................Seaman.............................
Dixon.........Adams.....Koscielny.....Sansom
Ljungberg....Vieria....Rocastle ....Overmars
.......................Bergkamp............................
........................Henry..................................

Subs:

Lukic
Keown
Petit
Ozil
Wright

 

Really like Koscielny but theres no way he's better than Boulde or Campbell.

----------------------Seaman------------------------
Lauren------Adams-----Campbell---------Cole
----------Vieira-----Petite-------Pires-------------
--------------------Bergkamp------------------------
------------Wright--------------Henry---------------

Subs: Lehmann, Keown, Dixon, Overmars, Ozil, Baston...

 

That front three is incredible

 

Basically the invincibles with tweaks:

Seaman

Dixon
Adams
Campbell
Cole (although I hate the **** who shoves phones up his arse and nearly crashes for 5k)

Pires
Vieira
Brady
Merson

Bergkamp
Henry

 

Merson in MF ?

 

Subs :

Bould
Freddie
Winterburn
Marwood
Steve Williams
Lukic
Giroud

Yes I know it's controversial, b

Had to get him in and he played lw a few times.

Subs: Lehman, Bould, Wright, Lauren, RVP, Rocastle, Ljumberg

 

That's one hell of a team to be fair!

 

Cant believe you think Giroud is better than Wright, Van Persie, Drake or Anelka.

 

Drake is aight

 

Might have been stirring a little...

 

Drake is going back a bit isn't he - though he's got one hell of a record...

 

I saw this on Sky Sports - a Arsene Wenger's Arsenal Best X11 rather than a Arsenal Best X11 but still relevant...

Your (and our) best goalkeeper was Pat Jennings. GOAT.

 

Pat Jennings was great. But Seaman was world class.

 

So was Pat Jennings and personally I think Jennings was the better goalkeeper

 

I didn't see Jennings play, because I'm not an old **** like you

 

You missed a true great. Has a claim to be the best ever. Keith Burkinshaw was among our best managers, but freezing Jennings out (for Barry ****ing Daines) was the single worst football decision ever made.

 

I saw Jennings play for NI in the World Cup, but I never saw him in the flesh for Arsenal. I started going in 1984/85 when John Lukic was establishing himself. He was really important keeper for us. But David Seaman was the best I've seen between the sticks for Arsenal.

 

I was lucky/privileged to sit next to Pat Jennings at a Charity dinner once. A more humble and self-effacing person I have yet to meet. We got him to open up a bit and I told him that the save I most remembered him making was a point blank one from Kenny Dalglish when we beat Liverpool at Highbury in about 1983. I asked him which of his save he remember the most proudly and he replied "the same one". Nobby Stiles was on our table as well - a really great night.
