That's quite a quick return, but it's hardly surprising. Masturbation is a fantastic rehabilitation exercise post-op for a dislocated shoulder. And we all know that everyone at Ar5ena1 are massive wankers ;) :lol: .

When you say "massive wankers" are you suggesting they should be starring in a Peter North dvd :lol:

:shock: :shock: I'm a little disturbed about that post Johnny! I had to google it and was more than a little surprised by the hits. Maybe that sort of thing is more up CP's alley given his SA Footy and Fantasy League usernames ;)

Good ol' Pete had some good roles with Traci Lords back in the day, lucky bastardo (oddly though they're not the same to view these days since the hairless scene became fashionable)

You might think Peter North is a lucky man but he had to start from the bottom up. :lol:

Good news story of the week was the scoring return of Eduardo from " THAT" injury.

Image

51 weeks he was out of the game from that tackle and to score a brace on his return was great for the player.

Whilst he was a brilliant player, I would have thought a bit high for Pires (just given the longevity of the club, and the host of stars they've had).

I guess also most fans will remember the more recent players (some having only seen the recent ones)

Looking at this list I think you're right CP.

There is no way on earth Seaman was a better keeper than Pat Jennings.
Bit like suggesting Dudek was better than Brucey boy.
Jennings, along with Clemence and Shilton were among the top 3 keepers in the world for a decade and all played in the same comp.
Would've thought Cliff Bastin would come in higher than 18 considering he held the goalscoring record for Arsenal for many years until Ian Wright broke it.

A few names in the top 30 that whilst they were good players, I'm not sure they should be there like Anelka, Cole and Petit.

To suggest that Ljunberg and Pires are better players/legends at Arsenal than O'Leary ( who is an absolute legend at Arsenal), Rocastle, McIntlock, bastin and Malcolm McDonald would make some of the seasoned gunners supporters over the age of 40 with no internet access cringe at that list.

Dont worry, O'Leary probably makes a list or two at Elland Rd ;)
