Best Arsenal Team Of All Time

by David on May 25, 2010

Elevens are a new range of t-shirts from London based designer James Greenfield. Celebrating hypothetical all-time best XI’s of various football clubs and countries, they have been conceived as a cult alternative to the replica strip. The shirts are printed on heavy cotton Gildan shirts in the UK. Their design owes a debt of inspiration to the fan forums and pundits who regularly debate their respective clubs all-time, dream line-ups.

The Arsenal design features 11 classic players plus the most succesful manager in the clubs history, Arsene Wenger. You can buy the t-shirts directly from the website for £17 ($25).

Greenfelds All-Time Arsenal Team is:

  • Seaman
  • Rice
  • Adams
  • McLintock
  • Winterburn
  • Bastin
  • Viera
  • Rocastle
  • Brady
  • Bergkamp
  • Henry
  • Manager: Wenger

Do you agree or disagree with the team?

I agree with most of it but i think ashley cole should be part of the team and campbell should be there instead of McLintock

surely fabienski, silveste, denilson should be there!

seeing these truly GREAT names just makes me sad. So many of them were playing only 5 years ago! How on earth did we go from Pires, Bergkamp, Henry, Vierra etc to what we have got now. one great player, Fabregas (who wants to leave), a few potentially good players (if they can stay fit) and silveste (the worst Arsenal player I have EVER seen)
Wenger might have won the most but he took over a great defence from Graham and then built and lost and great side.
such a shame………………………….

Chapman as greatest ever manager: he established Arsenal in the elite – won all that was going in his era – and secured back-to back titles, which no Arsenal manager has achieved since….
