I couldnt stand Eboue, I remember we played AC Milan in the CL and he started out on the right wing at the Emirates and gave the most pathetic display i have seen from a player In the end i began to accept the fact he was shit and grew to like him

Brian Moore ''..... poor little Paul Allen, tears running down his face...'''' or something like that... about the highlight from what I remember of that final....
Martin Hayes opitimised the mediocrity that ran throughout the club at that time. It wasn't their fault they were shit and most of them did try, it's just that they were shit.
I guess my vote would go to Perry Groves. He was terrible but, especially when he came on as a sub, he ran round like a loony and made me smile through my tears.

...The Romford Pele, take a bow Son.
I could be wrong but wasn't it was David Hillier who was the baggage thief?
Saloman Kalou, he may only have scored 1 goal in the 2012/13 season but that deflected effort to scrape a home draw against Southampton in the last game of the season got us that glorious 4th place trophy and proved Arsene right in letting RVP go and replacing him with Kalou.....oops sorry getting ahead of myself....
Christopher Wreh certainly gets my vote, would also add Alex Manninger who played some great games in goal for us.

That's the way I remember it; him and his mates nicking bags from Gatwick wasn't it?
