Robert Pires

Robert Pires is remembered for his ability to expose the gaps in the opposition's territory with his aggressive runs. He started playing for Arsenal from 2000 and was there until 2006. His ability to run through the defence with his lightning pace and creative moves often outfoxed the opposition.

His quick thinking and intelligent moves floored the rival’s defence. Arsene Wenger once stated that a utility player like Pires brings a lot of variety to any team.

The Frenchman operated quite well on the flanks and was dangerous during counter attacks. He scored 62 goals in 189 games for Arsenal and was a vital cog in Arsenal’s midfield.

Pires also had the uniqueness to adapt as per the situations which were his biggest strengths. Pires provided a lot of flexibility in the midfield and was quite reliable during pressure situations.
