Marc Overmars' pace was criminally underrrated!

@@samiulhussain3045 And that's one of the biggest problem with Walcott. Instead of trying to emulate Henry, he should've mould himself into a Ljungberg+Overmars type of player.

Remember that afternoon like as if it were yesterday!!! Ray “Romford Pele” truly run that midfield like a true lion. What a talented young Nicholas Anelka was. A true revolution took place on and off the pitch at Arsenal for next 7 to years , then all goes pear shape.

I agree with the statement

[@gpboxing]

Anelka was a phenomenal talent.

[@ismailaden7]

Anelka would have been Arsenal great if we hadn’t sold him what a talent he had. Imagine Henry and Anelka upfront and The Ace man behind them.

[@andrawalter4151]

Henry was bought from Anelka's transfer

[@Si262]

Not re-signing him from Bolton in 07/08 was the one

[@ismailaden7]

Simon Clancy him and Cesc got away cos of Arsene stubbornness Anelka time we had Chamakh and Adebayor.

[@itumo2645]

​@@andrawalter4151 >>> Nope. Wenger said he would have bought Henry regardless. Wenger bought him because he wasn't happy at Juventus not because of Anelka's departure. Remember Henry was a winger then.

[@MrErnest200]

They built there training centre off the back of the anelka transfer

[@gunslinger1946]

I have been watching football for over 65 years and the ice man in my opinion was simply the best, marvellous technicion and a lot tougher than he looked, the goal against Newcastle still stands out as the best individual goal of all time.

[@allthekingshorses7178]

Newcastle rarely threatened on the day, had this match been two years earlier I'd have fancied them for the win. Arsenal were superb that season though.

[@am2382]

The FA Cup has always been our personal trophy.

I have to admit I do find it mildly amusing how we keep winning FA Cups and yet haven't won a league cup (the easier trophy) since 1992.

[@rasheed5700]

Damn!Anelka lethal man,he was cold in his teens

[@AntonyStrus]

It's probably already been said, but Overmars scored the goal at Old Trafford that cut Man Utd's lead at the top earlier that season. Won them the double. Hell of a player.

[@Marcus-ru1ht]

The mysterious case of Nicolas Anelka. Wonderkid at PSG. Wenger saw something in him, but Anelka didn't repay the faith. He thought he was good enough to play for Madrid. Everyone laughed, from Madrid to a flop at Liverpool, and somehow this man who played for PSG, Real Madrid, Liverpool, ended up at Bolton. Many years later, most of the player at his age is retired, but he's at Stamford Bridge banging in goals as though he just peak. Lolol this guy is the best.

[@dmensah6631]

I was 9 years old when I was watching this. The good old days!!!!

This was a team made from heaven

[@krishkr7]

Overmars scared the life outta defenders

[@CYP0]

George Graham’s tactical rigour combined with Arsène Wenger’s dynamic fluidity gave rise to one of the best teams in football history. Btw isn’t it amazing that seventeen years later Shay Given would face Arsenal again in the FA Cup final 2015 and be ripped again?

[@Austing0407]

Seaman didn't have a ponytail during Euro96 that was at WC2002

The year before Henry. To think this already incredible team got better.

An old Overmars could outpace a young Ronaldo.

[@josiahlonge2803]

1:33 Keown was in tatters there lol

[@saveinmyhead88]

class of 98 vs class of 92 epic.

[@PeaceDweller]

Arsenal should have really made a statement in the summer transfer window by signing Zinedine Zidane (who went on to dominate with France at the World Cup) they missed out and allowed Utd to come back stronger and win their treble.

[@rahulrebello5448]

2020, we're doing the FA this year

[@adameywinter6623]

But if anyone is playing a cup final, he must call up to Petit. Great character for Emanuel.

[@abrahamwong938]

As much as I miss this English defense, I also rate the DM duo so much in Petit and Viera, it's so sad we haven't replaced them since they left arsenal

that defense error xD

[@tushyranx5860]

When they were invincibles in the making

[@chuckweicha1]

Quite rightly a lot of attention gets paid to the '02 and '04 clubs but this team was right up with the best Arsenal teams- if you look at what this team did the 2nd half of the season the football they played the way they steamrolled in the league and the cup and if not for losing players to the transfer market might have rattled off 3 or 4 in a row...we could use a Tony Adams now!

[@aadithya7139]

Kevin Costner was at this game

[@jhonki_47]

0:20 Moments like this make me think Anelka was the luckiest striker ever by signing so many big teams...
