MotM - PL: Arsenal vs Middlesbrough | 22/08/04

DB10 it would be. He captained the team and lead by example. His 2nd goal was absolutely critical. He gave the team belief. All the young players look up to him. He even played a part in 2 other goals. Truly MOTM performance

There's only one Dennis Bergkamp!

Definitely Bergkamp. 3-1 down, the whole team was almost shocked and shattered. And there came out the stand-in Dutch master, Dennis Bergkamp, dribbling past and giving a low shot that kept the team back in the game, inspiring the team to win it. Pure leader! He doesn't have to shout or whatsoever. His actions will say it all.

The second best performer for Arsenal would actually be our 17 year old craze, Francesc Fabregas. Sets up Bergkamp's goal and was the one who tackled the Boro player, passing on to Bergkamp, who then gave to Reyes to score. Good tackles, always pushing forward. He was the one who dribbled all the way, skipping off 2 players' tackles, before latching on to Henry who crossed for Pires to tap in. Great composure on the ball. He's definitely making some craze around now with his incredible performances. Rooney-mania is long gone. Here comes Cesc-mania!

Reyes.

Dennis was the architect, but Jose was the assassin.

I voted for Cesc again. He was brilliant during the match. He started the moves toward scoring the 3rd and 4th Arsenal goals(The most important ones) and he didn't let any opponent take the ball away from him. It's remarkable that he could pull out this sort of performance for not having much experience. Berkamp was outstanding too but we all know what he can do. Reyes and Henry were very lively and played major roles in our win but they didn't play very well for the whole 90 mins, unlike Cesc and Bergy.

Henry was not at his best but for me , that day reyes was outstanding . Pires came on as substitute was the turning point of that match , he is my man of the match

 

[GoonerGurjit]

I can't choose between Reyes and Bergkamp.
