The unbeaten season was incredible. edit, not actually a moment so Keown trying to chop off horse face's head.

Saddest Arsenal Moment of the Noughties

Losing to Chelsea in the Champions League quarter finals was pretty tough, we would have been hot favourites for the trophy had we won, but for me losing to Liverpool at Anfield after Babel's sudden loss of balance.

Arsenal Player of the Decade

Thierry Henry

Arsenal Goal of the Decade

Should probably be Bergkamp at St James' but I could our second when we won the league at the Lane in 04.

Signing of the Decade

Sol Campbell primarily due to its hilarity.

Disappointment of the Decade

Abramovich

Player/s for the future


Ramsey is class and will probably replace Cesc when he eventually returns to Barca.

Tough - I can't split it, but winning the League at SHL and winning the League at OT

Saddest Arsenal Moment of the Noughties

The Final whistle in the Champions League Final - I still have nightmare's about the manner in which Almunia conceded both goals.

Arsenal Player of the Decade

Either Bergy or TH14

Arsenal Goal of the Decade

Bergkamp versus Newcastle

Signing of the Decade

Cesc Fabregas and Sol Campbell

Disappointment of the Decade

It has to has been not winning more trophies as we had the World at our feet in 04.

Player wise it would be the manner in which Ashley Cole left and the premature departure of Diarra.

Player/s for the future

- Jack Wilshere
- Wojciech Szczesny
- Jay Emmanuel Thomas
- Aaron Ramsey
- Francis Coquelin
- Nacer Barazite
- Fran Merida

What was your favorite Arsenal Moment of the Noughties

Winning the title at OT (an win against our direct rival on their pitch; 2004 was a disappointing draw against some mid-tabled shite)

Saddest Arsenal Moment of the Noughties

Losing the CL final.

Arsenal Player of the Decade

Toughy. Bergkamp and Vieira had the late 90s, so I'm going for a draw between Pires and Henry.

Arsenal Goal of the Decade

Bergkamp at St James'

Signing of the Decade

Fabregas. He was FREE. Fucking unbelivable.

Disappointment of the Decade

2005 onwards, seemed to go backwards for 2/3 years, then stay there.

Player/s for the future

Ramsey. I'm looking forward to seeing how Sczhezney does too.

What was your favorite Arsenal Moment of the Noughties

The invincible season, we were fooking awesome then, even though it was a bitter sweet season, our team had all the components.

Saddest Arsenal Moment of the Noughties

The way the mancs destroyed us in the CL Semi 2nd Leg.

Arsenal Player of the Decade

The 3 muskateers, plus bergy - inseperable!!

Arsenal Goal of the Decade

Adebayor overhead kick against villareal, also a crucial goal at that stage of the season.

Signing of the Decade

Vieira - arrived at the beginning of Wenger's reign - raw, talented and aggressive. When he left us, he had established himself as the absolute best holding midfielder in the world. Absolute legend.

Disappointment of the Decade

Failure to win the champions league, considering the great sides/players we had over the decade

Player/s for the future

Theo - he is still learning, Wilshere, Frimpong and Ramsey

What was your favorite Arsenal Moment of the Noughties

-Winning the league at Shite Hart Lane, going unbeaten in the process

Saddest Arsenal Moment of the Noughties

-On the pitch it is the Champions League Final 2006, off the pitch it's the death of David Rocastle at such a young age

Arsenal Player of the Decade

Thierry Henry, for me the greatest Arsenal player of all time

Arsenal Goal of the Decade

Bergkamps against Newcastle in 2002

Signing of the Decade

Sol Campbell for the sheer nerve and it being absolutley hillarious, stealing Fabregas from Barcelona certainly runs it close

Disappointment of the Decade

That one of the greatest club sides of all time (the invincibles) didn't beat the Chavs and go onto win the European Cup

Player/s for the future
Aaron Ramsey and Jack Wilshere
