The Dutchman recently had a statue of himself unveiled outside the Emirates Stadium such was the impact he made during his time with the Gunners. He won three FA Cups and four Premier League titles in north London but failed to win the Champions League as the defeat to Barcelona in the 2006 final marked his final appearance for the club. However, his most iconic moments came in the orange of Holland with a superbly well taken strike against Argentina at the 1998 World Cup that tells you everything you need to know about Bergkamp’s style, ability and technique in one passage of play. He took more pleasure in creating goals than scoring them and is now assistant manager to our team’s left-back, Frank de Boer, at Ajax.

Striker – Ruud van Nistelrooy

Old school forward van Nistelrooy linked up with his countryman at Old Trafford but also featured alongside side him for the majority of his 70 caps for Holland. A fabulous scoring record for Manchester United was followed by a good spell with Real Madrid. However, he won a single Premier League crown and FA cup during his spell in England but added two La Liga titles to his collection in Spain. With such a fantastic creative force behind him, van Nistelrooy would get plenty of service into the box from our wide men and would knock the goals in from close range with ease. The forward also took in spells with Hamburg and Malaga before retiring in 2012.
