Freddie Ljungberg

Freddie Ljungberg was the most successful Swedish footballer in the history of the Premier League. He played in 372 matches and scored 72 goals for the club in his nine years with them.

He also won two Premier Leagues and three FA Cups and got selected in 'Premier League’s team of the decade'. He firmly etched his name in the club’s hall of fame with his stupendous performance during his stint with the club.

Ljungberg was known for his pace and could be electrifying down the left wing. He was the primary reason behind the success of Arsenal’s counter-attacking tactics. He used to collect long, diagonal balls from the defense and make those marauding runs to destroy opposition defenders.

He could also play as a second striker in the 4-5-1 formation adopted sometimes by Arsenal. Ljungberg was also a vital part of the “Invincibles” team and went on to score some vital goals.
