Arsene Wenger's greatest ever Arsenal XI: Henry & Bergkamp lead the line

A masterful technician who could make the game look easy at times. Bergkamp was never renowned for his goalscoring prowess but still managed over 100 goals during his time at Arsenal. Although he wasn't a Wenger signing it was Bergkamp who led the line for a new, entertaining Arsenal side under the Frenchman. Another player who has his own statue outside Arsenal's stadium.

Arsenal's greatest ever goalscorer. Three FA Cups, two Premier League titles and an Invincible season were part of Henry's honours list. The French striker had a blend of pace, skill and technique which was unrivalled in the Premier League. He even has his own statue outside Emirates Stadium.

Pure class. Possessed a perfect touch, precise shot and elegant running style which made it look as if he was gliding across the floor. Pires epitomises those who say 'he's a Wenger player'.

Nicknamed the 'Invisible Wall' for a reason, Gilberto was a mainstay of Arsenal's famous Invincibles squad. His protection of the back four and ability to break up play in midfield was invaluable for a side who were able to rip sides apart in most games. A key cog for Wenger's team.

A £3.5m bargain. Vieira's physicality, passion for the game and all-round dominance in midfield made him impossible to beat. Grew from a scrawny teenager to a European powerhouse midfielder under the tutelage of Wenger.

Ljungberg's biggest contribution came in the 2002 season where he won the Premier League Player of the Season award - and if injuries didn't hamper him he would have contributed even more. Versatile, tricky and able to link up with almost any player, Ljungberg provided many great moments for Arsenal fans.

Despite an acrimonious departure from Arsenal his contributions for the Gunners cannot be argued with. A fast left-back who was equally as good at attacking as he was defending, Cole's Invincible status ensures his place in history as one of the club's all-time great defenders.

Wenger was spoilt for choice in defence during the opening years of his reign. Sol Campbell and Kolo Toure are certainly near this team but Koscielny's efforts in the past few seasons have been outstanding. Signed for a fee in the region of £10.5m, the defender has made the step up from French football to the Premier League with ease. Solid, almost unbeatable in the air and able to intercept everything that comes his way.

The only man to captain a title-winning side in three decades. Mr Captain Fantastic and a player who benefited from Wenger's overhaul of the club's training methods. Adams will be forever associated with Arsenal and remembered as a true great of the English game.

A defensive midfielder converted to a right-back, Lauren is the archetypal Wenger player embodying strength, power and pace. Lee Dixon comes close to this XI but the way Lauren held the position as his own for so many years, combined with the unbeaten season and FA Cups, has to be lauded. Superb player.

Part of two double-winning sides, Seaman's shot stopping expertise made him hugely difficult to beat. His dominance between the sticks helped the defence in front of him and is the reason he's picked above the likes of Jens Lehmann and Petr Cech.
