Arsenal team of the decade (1997-2007)

 

When Arsene Wenger took over Arsenal Football Club in October 2006, he was relatively unknown in the English football community. However, since his arrival, Wenger has transformed Arsenal into a successful multinational team with a strong emphasis on elegant and attacking football.

Add caption

As a passionate Arsenal fan for the last ten years, I have had the privilege of witnessing Wenger's entire tenure as the club's technical director. In that time, I have seen the club win the Premier League title three times (1998, 2002 and 2004), the FA Cup four times (1998, 2002, 2003 and 2005) and reach the UEFA Cup final and the final of the Champions League once each. (2000 and 2006 respectively). I have seen ประวัติทีมอาร์เซนอล come and go from the club from all over the world and I have been spoiled by brilliant attacking football.

So without further ado, I am pleased to present, playing in Wenger's favorite 4-4-2 formation, the Arsenal Team of the Decade.

Goalkeeper of the Decade: Jens Lehmann

German goalkeeper Jens Lehmann joined Arsenal in July 2003 as a replacement for Englishman David Seaman. While many fans will undoubtedly question Lehmann's selection in this team over his predecessor, I think it's hard to argue with Lehmann's outstanding performances for Arsenal. In his first season with the club, Lehmann spent the entire Premiership season without losing a game, a staggering tribute to his consistency and scoring ability.

His next season was less spectacular, but he had a significant performance as man of the match in Arsenal's victory in the FA Cup final over bitter rivals Manchester United. Lehmann moved up another notch in the 2005/06 season when he was undefeated his entire Champions League campaign with Arsenal until, sadly, he was sent off in the final. He was subsequently awarded the Champions League Goalkeeper of the Year.

An astonishing save by Real Madrid's Raúl in the quarter-final second leg and a major late save from Juan Riquelme's penalty in the semi-final second leg against Villareal were the highlights of his campaign. Lehmann has always been a good shot stopper and despite his tendency to be hyped, he deserves his spot as Arsenal's Goalkeeper of the Decade.

Best moment: With Arsenal 1-0 ahead of Villareal on aggregate and on the brink of their first Champions League final, their opponents were awarded a penalty at the end to give Riquelme a chance to send the tie into extra time. But Jens Lehmann came up, dived to their left and avoided Riquelme's penalty to provoke delirium in the Arsenal field and lead them to their first Champions League final.

Right back of the decade: Lauren

Cameroonian midfielder Lauren came to Arsenal from Real Mallorca in 2000 and became Arsenal's starting right-back for the 2001/02 season. He was an integral part of the Arsenal defense that won the double that season, equally adept at defending and attacking and forming a vital partnership with Freddie Ljungberg on the right flank.

Lauren was an incredibly talented player with exceptional technical ability. She combined this technique with great speed and aggression to make the ideal attacking right back. She was a member of the Arsenal squad that went undefeated the Premiership season in 2003-2004 but was suspended for four games for facing Ruud van Nistelrooij after the Manchester United striker missed a penalty against Arsenal at Old Trafford.

Birmingham Shock Arsenal win Carling Cup

 

Birmingham City produced a huge surprise by beating Arsenal in the Carling Cup final at Wembley Stadium to win their first major trophy since 1963. Arsenal, who have not had a trophy since 2005, were the firm favorites to win the cup before the game. taking into account their high position in the League, their fluid football and the fact that Birmingham had only beaten Arsenal once in the entire history of the Premier League.

Birmingham hadn't read the script and lunged forward from the start, in just the second minute Lee Bowyer charged into Arsenal's penalty area and was brought down by goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny, which ประวัติทีมอาร์เซนอล penalty and a red card. direct. the linesman did not controversially mark Bowyer as offside. The replays clearly showed he was offside and the Birmingham players were rightly outraged.

Justice seemed to have prevailed when after 28 minutes Serbian giant Nikola Zigic jumped everyone to lead the Blues to an unexpected lead. Birmingham were not intimidated by their rivals and showed great stamina and determination against the favorites, and could have scored a second had they not been in poor control so as not to disappoint them.

Arsenal, lacking the injured club captain Cesc Fabregas and Theo Walcott, soon recovered and it was a moment of great football that saw Arsenal score the equalizer in the 39th minute. Jack Wilshere's fearsome shot shook the crossbar from Birmingham's goal and the rebound was crossed by Arshavin for Van Persie to sweep in a brilliant volley. With the score at 1-1, Ben Foster made a good save from an effort by Sami Nasri to ensure his team reached the break in terms of level.

Arsenal started the second half with enthusiasm as Tomas Rosicky approached with a deflected shot, the Gunners onslaught gained momentum and the Blues were in debt to goalkeeper Ben Foster, who made a series of good saves from Samir Nasri Andrey Arshavin and alternate Nicklas Bendtner. Later, Foster received the man of the match award for his outstanding performance.

However, Birmingham were not only tough on defense, they also showed ambition of their own and alarm bells should have sounded in Arsenal's defense when Keith Fahey's shot caused the goalkeeper to be hit but hit the inside of the post.

As the match seemed destined for extra time, manager Alex McLeish made the courageous decision to bring in another forward, Obafemi Martins, who then pounced on a disastrous confusion between Arsenal goalkeeper Szczesny and defender Laurent Koscielny as they both went for the same ball and they left. Martins to throw the ball into the empty goal in the 89th minute.

Despite four minutes of injury time, Arsenal now looked like a beaten team and Martins could have added another goal if he hadn't worked up the ball too much. Birmingham held out for the historic victory, only their second major trophy in their history, while Arsenal are left wondering about another missed opportunity to claim a trophy.

Soccer Accessory: Chelsea Versus Arsenal

 

Chelsea and Arsenal met in the Football League First Division at Stamford Bridge for the first time on November 9, 1907, 30 years after the stadium was first opened for the use of London Athletic Club. Chelsea won 2.1 with both goals from George Hilsdon. Arsenal's response came from Charlie Satterthwaite.

George Hilsdon was the first player to score 100 goals for Chelsea and a weather vane inspired by him can still be seen at Stamford Bridge. Legend has it that Chelsea will suffer "great misfortune" if it is ever taken away, as happened during fieldwork in the late 1970s, when Chelsea was in financial and footballing decline. Hilsdon was the victim of a gas attack on the Western Front in World War I and never ประวัติทีมอาร์เซนอล football again, dying in 1941. His grave is unmarked.

Add caption

This first match was seen by a record crowd for England's first division: 65,000. Arsenal were still known and based at Woolwich Arsenal at the time, but they had a large following for this match due to it also being King Edward VII's 66th birthday. The munitions factory, where many of the workers who followed the club were located, was closed during the day, leaving them free to travel to West London.

In fact, Arsenal could have been more local rivals to Chelsea than Tottenham Hotspur. A local businessman, Henry Norris, played an important role in the development of both clubs. Amassing a fortune from the estate Norris became a director and then president of Fulham. Another Edwardian businessman named Henry, Henry Augustus Mears, had acquired Stamford Bridge with a view to making it one of the best venues for association football in the capital, if not in the entire country. He offered Norris the opportunity to move Fulham FC to the ground, but Norris refused to pay the annual rent of around £ 1,500, so Mears created his own team, Chelsea FC, in 1905. If Norris hadn't been so careful with his money, it might not have been a Chelsea football club at all.

Five years later Norris, still the chairman of Fulham, became a majority shareholder in Woolwich Arsenal, which had gone into voluntary liquidation. Upon also becoming president of that London club, Norris proposed to merge them with Fulham to form a superclub. The move was blocked by the Football League, so Chelsea and Fulham remained local rivals instead of Chelsea and Arsenal.

This match between the two teams in 1907 was the first that two London clubs played in the First Division and thus the first major 'London derby'. All subsequent league matches between the two teams to date have been at the top level of English football (the former First Division and now the Premier League).

Woolwich Arsenal took revenge the following season with a 2.1 win on November 28, 1908, with Chelsea's goal again from George Hilsdon. The Gunners also won on Chelsea's turf in the subsequent season, before the first draw - 1.1 - in this league match on February 15, 1913. This was the last time the two teams met before Woolwich Arsenal. He will move to Highbury and change his name. to Arsenal.

In fact, after that victory in their first match, Chelsea did not win the match again until December 13, 1919 when they won 3.1 with goals from Robert McNeil, John Cock and Henry Ford in front of a large crowd of 60,000 spectators from postwar.

The game on October 12, 1935 was played in front of another huge crowd: 82,905, which was the second highest attendance recorded for an English league game. It ended in a 1.1 draw. Joseph Bambrick scored for Chelsea and Jack Crayston for Arsenal.

Chelsea and Arsenal met in the Football League First Division at Stamford Bridge for the first time on November 9, 1907, 30 years after the stadium was first opened for the use of London Athletic Club. Chelsea won 2.1 with both goals from George Hilsdon. Arsenal's response came from Charlie Satterthwaite.

George Hilsdon was the first player to score 100 goals for Chelsea and a weather vane inspired by him can still be seen at Stamford Bridge. Legend has it that Chelsea will suffer "great misfortune" if it is ever taken ประวัติทีมอาร์เซนอล during fieldwork in the late 1970s, when Chelsea was in financial and footballing decline. Hilsdon was the victim of a gas attack on the Western Front in World War I and never played professional football again, dying in 1941. His grave is unmarked.

This first match was seen by a record crowd for England's first division: 65,000. Arsenal were still known and based at Woolwich Arsenal at the time, but they had a large following for this match due to it also being King Edward VII's 66th birthday. The munitions factory, where many of the workers who followed the club were located, was closed during the day, leaving them free to travel to West London.

In fact, Arsenal could have been more local rivals to Chelsea than Tottenham Hotspur. A local businessman, Henry Norris, played an important role in the development of both clubs. Amassing a fortune from the estate Norris became a director and then president of Fulham. Another Edwardian businessman named Henry, Henry Augustus Mears, had acquired Stamford Bridge with a view to making it one of the best venues for association football in the capital, if not in the entire country. He offered Norris the opportunity to move Fulham FC to the ground, but Norris refused to pay the annual rent of around £ 1,500, so Mears created his own team, Chelsea FC, in 1905. If Norris hadn't been so careful with his money, it might not have been a Chelsea football club at all.

Five years later Norris, still the chairman of Fulham, became a majority shareholder in Woolwich Arsenal, which had gone into voluntary liquidation. Upon also becoming president of that London club, Norris proposed to merge them with Fulham to form a superclub. The move was blocked by the Football League, so Chelsea and Fulham remained local rivals instead of Chelsea and Arsenal.

This match between the two teams in 1907 was the first that two London clubs played in the First Division and thus the first major 'London derby'. All subsequent league matches between the two teams to date have been at the top level of English football (the former First Division and now the Premier League).

Chelsea won 2.1 with both goals from George Hilsdon. Arsenal's response came from Charlie Satterthwaite.

George Hilsdon was the first player to score 100 goals for Chelsea and a weather vane inspired by him can still be seen at Stamford Bridge. Legend has it that Chelsea will suffer "great misfortune" if it is ever taken away, as happened ประวัติทีมอาร์เซนอล in the late 1970s, when Chelsea was in financial and footballing decline. Hilsdon was the victim of a gas attack on the Western Front in World War I and never played professional football again, dying in 1941. His grave is unmarked.

This first match was seen by a record crowd for England's first division: 65,000. Arsenal were still known and based at Woolwich Arsenal at the time, but they had a large following for this match due to it also being King Edward VII's 66th birthday.
