Ade better footballer but Auba better goal scorer, at their peak you take Ade - guy was a monster, our Drogba.
RvP though, by far the best player of the banter era. One of the greatest ever strikers. As a person too, guy wanted to join Arsenal and left because he asked the club for ambition and they didn’t show it.

This thread is pointless. It's easily Cesc Fabregas. A prime Cesc at Arsenal would even break into the invincibles first team.
Massive fan of the guy, shame he tarnished his career because people view his time at the Emirates with bias now. He's the best young talent we've had at Arsenal by far. Don't understand why people say RVP. He was not consistent enough....

I definitely agree about RVP. He pretty much dragged us to a top 4 finish during his last season and was the main reason why Utd won the title the year after.
Not sure why a lot of fans give him stick tbh. The likes of Gazidis, Kroenke etc should be on the end of all that. He would have stayed had we shown ambition.

He had a meeting with the people above Wenger I think, asked them their plans and he left because he knew they were on a joke thing. Don’t blame him for leaving at the end of his career to try and win something.
I hear some Utd fans say he is their favourite player ever and the best striker they ever saw. Some claim him as their own, which kinda hurts me, for me he’s still an Arsenal guy.

I always forgot how Sanchez was good at Arsenal lmao. Such a important player for us,but never feel like he had played here.

Sagna was quality, every single game. Cesc obviously.
I don’t count Özil, Sanchez etc as banter era, Mesut won 4 FA Cups which no player has done, and nearly lead us to a title, so that’s past the banter era.
When you look back, the banter era wasn’t even banter really, it was us with no money punching above our weight - still playing the best football in the world too.

That’s in hindsight looking at how dreadful our football is now and how bad our signings have been.
Agree on Sagna, that’s why I was saying we should look for a reliable RB like him. One of Arsène’s best signings imo.

Just raw god given ability you're looking at 1 Özil 2 Cazorla 3 Cesc / RVP I think.

Yeah, only people who have the same opinions as you are true fans.

‘We’re gonna buy Podolski and get Yossi Benayoun on loan’ I would’ve jumped out the window if I was RVP.

The post Wenger years are a much bigger banter era. We’ve spent like 350m on overhyped dossers.
Sagna and Kos were wonderful signings. Cheap, relatively unknown, and went on to become top players. I always remember Sagna back pocketing Bale every time they played against eachother.

Would have loved to have seen Robin play with Santi that season, though he had earned his move to a title challenger at that point.
In our last match in 2012-2013...Kos scored the only goal of the game, and got man of the match, as we secured Champions League...nice fact for you there

It's absolute bollocks that you can't be an Arsenal fan and see RVP for the player he was and the great things he did for us (and how Wenger transformed him). Blame the Krankies.
I didn't call him World Class, so I take your point.
He was a lot better than average.
And he would stroll into the team now.

Fabregas was brilliant but in not sure if he was our most talented or important player back then. Cesc also had many injuries.
