    You are right about Quinn though though shocking omission (and MacDonald and Sunderland deserve a nod)
    Quinny was a good lad. Bumped into him in the Green Gate on West Green Road one night. I was too scared to go over and say hello because he was sat with Liam Brady!

    I loved Quinny. He actually became a thoroughly respectable centre forward when he got a bit older.

    And Smudger is the best proper No 9 I've seen in an Arsenal shirt.
    Surely, John Radford ? Did we leave out SuperMac ?

    Never saw Radford or Supermac live - just before my time, 7. Would still say Smith was better - two titles as top scorer both times. I do think Radford is underrated though - deserves a lot more credit. Still only three players with more goals for Arsenal

    On his day, Adebayor could be totally unplayable. He didn't have nearly enough days.

    So could Chamakh - though he only had one day

    Yes, indeed. In fact, everyone's new favourite Nigerian (I cannot spell his name) brings to mind La Bayor at his best. There's an awful lot to be said for simple, straightforward, high-powered running, especially from a BLU.
