Arsenalisation pics

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

I reckon a statue of Sammy dropping his shorts right in front of the away turnstile would go down well as well.......

I don't know about a statue of Rocky or Geordie, but I think Sammy dropping his shorts for the away fans is a winner! 8) :lol:

Alex James
1929 - 1937
Starts: 261
Goals: 27

??? know nothing about him but if he's wearing number 10 doesn't mean he's a striker? his record is more Heskey than Henry :)

arsenal.com wrote:The Bergkamp comparisons are understandable. James played as an inside forward, providing the ammunition for the likes of Cliff Bastin, Ted Drake and David Jack to fill their boots. The Scot's impeccable passing made him the perfect supply line for Herbert Chapman's prolific Arsenal sides.

James was not known for his goalscoring, plundering only 27 in 261 appearances for the Club, but he was on target at Wembley. The Scot's strike set up a 2-0 victory over Huddersfield Town as Arsenal clinched their first major silverware.
Apparently he was captian, it seems captains are going to be a theme on these posters, adams henry etc. even hapgood!

I think they should at least leave space for Cesc, yes he might leave quite soon but if we win something this season he deserves a place. (he has the potential to be Arsenal's record appearance holder but modern football/money will prevent this from happening :( )

He was what these days is called deep lying midfield. He was the supplier to the strikers and apparently laid on a great number of goals for the forwards. in those days no 10 indicated inside left (midfielder).
