I mean I'd sort of forgotten about him, tbh, so people wibbling on about how he'll destroy his Arsenal 'legacy' just sound particularly ludicrous to me.

Did he actually have an Arsenal 'legacy'? I would imagine their fans will be more píssed off tbhOriginally Posted by Burney
'Seems that I was busy doing something close to nothing
But different than the day before'
'Met a dwarf that was no good, dressed like Little Red Riding Hood'
'Now you're unemployed, all non-void
Walkin' round like you're Pretty Boy Floyd'
Presumably they see him as a short-term like-for-like replacement for Kane - but not deformed and attractive to women.
One of only 19 men to score 100 goals for Arsenal in 125 odd years, created the winner in two FA Cup Finals, scored in another one. There are players who are feted for less
meh. he's no Theo Walcott.
“Other clubs never came into my thoughts once I knew Arsenal wanted to sign me.”

Always surprised me that RVP isn't given more credit for being the 8th highest goalscorer in our history despite "only" having one good season
I can never think about RvP without remembering that absolutely terrible pair of stripy strides he wore when we unveiled him. Shocking, they were.

All true, but he isn't feted, is he? Not his fault, but he just never really stuck in the mind. Which is sort of my point.
Sort of mine too - under-rated imo. Wouldn't like to see him in a Spurs shirt
Bad timing as much as anything else. I think we were so spoilt by the Henry-Bergkamp era that anyone else was bound to feel a bit 'after the Lord Mayor's Show' and suffer by comparison.
