Ronaldinho and Beckham were streets ahead of Pires, Neved was as well though he did play in a different role I think.

Dag you've shown serious flaws in your knowledge of the game on this thread. Some absolutely outrageously side of the mark comments.

I love Pires, but but better than Bergkamp? You're having a fucking laugh mate. Ridiculous.

Not ridiculous at all. Like I said, during his time at the club Pires offered more than Bergkamp did.

Yes he did. Scored more goals and also created more chances. Pires 01/02 was a better season than anything Bergkamp did at Arsenal.

Bergkamp scored 120 and assisted 124 in 423 games.
Pires scored 84 and assisted 73 in 284 games.

Bergkamp's assist record is better. Only marginally, but better nonetheless. Add to this that Bergkamp stayed at Arsenal well beyond his prime, therefore his stats took a hit over the last 3-4 years. Not the case with Pires. Bergkamp 95-02 was better than Pires could ever dream of being. And Pires was fucking brilliant before you start accusing me of underrating him.

So not only did Pires offer more goals/minutes, he also offered more assists/minutes. Thanks for proving my point for me. Pires, DURING HIS TIME AT ARSENAL, offered more than Bergkamp did. I couldn't give a shit how old Bergy was, Pires was hardly a youngster. Also, Bergkamp was a non factor for only 04/05 and 05/06. Pires for 05/06.

Actually Bergkamp's assists per appearence ratio was 0.29 and Pires's 0.25. :thumbsup:

If you're saying that Bergkamp only became a non-entity one year before Pires, despite being 5 years older. then that just shows Bergkamp's extra lastability.

You're ridiculous for claiming Pires was better than Bergkamp mate, i'll let you off if you revoke that statement in your next post though.

Again, I said Pires offered more to Arsenal during his tome at the club, and those stats go a long way in proving that.

Bergkamp's prime was before Pires joined.

Seriously, Frank Lampard is an absolute legend of the game. He needs to be recognised in some way eg. Frank Lampard OBE, Sir Frank Lampard or some kind of lifetime achievement award.

Arsenal have played good football for the last decade, so it was very easy to warm to them and take the team to heart.
