Henry
Bergkamp
When this started. . . .it was probably the start of Wengers series of fails, he should have started to bring in a few stronger characters to quell Henrys supereme influence.
I can remember times when it seemed everything had to go through Henry that some were scared to play. . .
Henry easily. His goalscoring record speaks for itself and the number of assists he racked up was impressive as well. Alot of people seem to forget that.
DB10
A true Maestro
Nikos Dabizas can testify.... he was never the same after that.
20 years ago we signed this genius and legend:
Für eure Sicherheit
Henry.
Dennis had countless moments where you were just left wondering on the hell he managed to do what he just did. Bergkamp was the reclusive type, producing magic for his benefit first and foremost and if anyone happened to be around then that was just a bonus. If anyone had to pleased, then recognition from his peers was more important than crowd adulation.
Henry stayed at a level for 4/5 seasons where every time he was on the ball you expected something to happen. He electrified the crowd whenever he received it. He loved the attention and thrived on it, a player made for the fans, living up to the fantasies of the crowd, who wanted to live out their dream of beautiful goals being scored every week.

If these 2 had played for other teams not the Arsenal I would have reluctantly had to choose. However since both played for Arsenal, both produced incredible moments that history will remember. Its like having to choose between DaVinci and Michelangelo, or Mozart, Bach and Beethoven. You simply cant choose. Much as i love Henry however, the thought of Bergies goal against Newcastle and his 1998 w/c goal against Argentina swings it for me. If you had to explain to a Martian what the obsession with football was all about. Just play him those two goals. Never bettered in poetry of motion and execution. The Iceman winneth.
Henry wins it by a mile tbh...
Arsene Wenger, the only football manager that got paid 8 million quid to do nothing but sit on his arse..
