A name synonymous with footballing success at Arsenal, Patrick Vieira is arguably one of the greatest footballers of all time, and he did his best work in a Gunner’s shirt.

So important was he to the team that, when he took over from Tony Adams as Arsenal’s defensive coordinator, the Gunner’s embarked on a run of 49 games without a loss, bringing home nine trophies for the club in nine years.

When he eventually did leave for Juventus, his loss was so irreparable that the Gunners didn’t win another trophy for nine years.
