Villarreal winger, Robert Pires made his very first return to Arsenal since his departure from North London back in 2006 for the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals. The Yellow Submarine were comprehensively beaten 3-0 by the Gunners but the veteran Frenchman still walked away a happy man after he was given a rousing reception by the Emirates faithful. “On a personal level, it was very nice and very inspiring,” he told reporters after the match when asked about the moving ovation. “Honestly, I did not expect it. Although I know that Arsenal players never forget their old colleagues, it still touched my heart. Also, I found out what it’s like to play in this stadium, as I’ve never been here before. “In spite of the defeat, this will stay in my memory for a long time. It has been very emotional,” he added. The 35-year-old, who played for Arsenal from 2000 to 2006, believes that Arsene Wenger’s current crop of young superstars will go far in the competition. “This is a big team that have a lot of potential, a lot of pace, freshness and youth. I would wish to see them, as well as Wenger, go all the way to the final and win the Champions League. “Today, I am still a fan of this team, especially because they play the kind of football that I love,” he praised. |

Pires is a legend. Hopefully he'll move into coaching or something and return to Arsenal. |

Pires is a legend. Along with Bergkamp he's the player I miss most. |
