h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

A few were highly debatable. There was the argument that Tony Adams should've come higher than 3rd, that Thierry Henry, despite being an awesome player, wasn't worthy of top spot as his longevity at Arsenal was for 8 years, whereas Bergkamp (2nd) and Adams were there til the end of their careers.

Hmmm, interesting. I would still have Henry first, I'm not an Arsenal supporter so you know my opinions don't really matter, and then 2nd/3rd but be very tight between Bergkamp & Adams - it's all down to taste but I think being a creative player is much more difficult than being a defender (he was a magnificent captain as well, don't get me wrong) but I would still have:

1. Henry
2. Bergkamp
3. Adams

but that's just my irrelevant opinion

You know how much I value your opinion, regardless of what we're talking about. I've even bought that Topman shirt you suggested a couple of weeks ago.

I agree with you, for me Henry and Bergkamp are the top two, they are my favourite players of all time and even when I was a kid, I'd get immensely excited whenever I saw them do something special.

The sexy shirt? I'm sure you look dashing in it Arsenal really should have won the CL with those players during your domination to be honest, it would have perfected it more.

Yeah, we definitely missed that opportunity in 2006, I've never been more annoyed, and at the same time, sad at Arsenal losing a game when it was ours for the taking. Even with 10 men, against that Barca attack, we kept them at bay relatively comfortably until Larsson came on I have no idea why I'm saying this, you don't care.

I do care. I love football, I love attacking football, I love teams who play the 'right way' and Arsenal are one of those teams. I think you should have won in 2006, hey keep your head held high at least you gave them a game, we couldn't even manage that with 11 men never mind 10.

I really think we should have won in 06/07 though We got unlucky in the FA Cup final to Chelsea, the most boring ever final you will ever see, ever. And we got unlucky in the CL because of severe defensive problems, had we of beaten AC Milan, we would have met Liverpool and I really think, with our full strength side, that we would have battered them

I can't disagree with that, but I have to say, Kaka's performance at Old Trafford (albeit against a depleted defence) was one of my favourite all time performances (Zidane against Brazil at WC 2006 is my fave overall ); he was superb. And he remains to this day my favourite non Arsenal player.

Liverpool have never had what you'd call a "team" though, it's been Gerrard and 10 other guys, or Gerrard, Torres and 9 other guys.

Zidane against Brazil at WC 2006 is my fave overall

Me to. I love him.

You are mistaken about Liverpool, they have Gerrard + Torres and 10 others

You are so cheeky And then you run away like I'm going to tell you off? I think Liverpool suck too.

Shhhhhh, don't tell Benitez that, he'll then try to make them better, noooo we must not let this happen. Carry on Rafa, great work

"I think Liverpool suck too"

You've broken my fact-o-meter!

To an extent, I feel sorry for him. He's gambled on a few big money signings, some have worked, some haven't, he can't find a good position for half of his players, and he happens to have two of the worst owners of a club in world football.

I feel sorry for him sometimes but then I remind myself of 'that' interview and the sympathy goes away...

In all fairness, nobody came worse off in that interview than Benitez. He just looked childish.

Yep. Anyway, I must go, I must somehow drag myself away from your company to go to sleep. Goodnight, sweet dreams

Goodnight Roy

Night kids.

Kids?

Night darling?

Much better Night

Darling?
