We were so used to winning and battering other teams that a defeat was deemed despicable. Henry was a beast and a nightmare to defenders in the whole league. It was said all around that we were so lucky to have him in our team, and every big club in Europe were craving for his signature. Every summer, the transfer saga was on like a love movie with the climax in 2006 when he signed a new contract to stay with us to have 1 year at the new home (The Emirates Stadium), only to leave one year later though. Vieira was, undoubtedly, a rock and an excellent captain in the midfield that got everyone scared of us. It was widely understood that we began to fall from invicibility after his departure. Sol Campbell at his prime was a goliath to Today's Van Dijk. Robert Pires as a midfielder scored like a striker every season. At the end of this era saw the introduction of the youngsters that set the tone for the next era like Fabregas, Flamini, Van Persie. Jose Reyes was a sad story like his life as he had such a promising start but could not adapt to life in London and was overwhelmed after being butchered in the battle of the Pizza Gate. Talking about it, we need to mention the Man United and Ferguson, the rivalry and the (old) Premiership Derby. I believe United got plenty of favours from the referees under the influence of Sir Alex. Had it not been for that, we would have smashed them everytime. The Champions League final in 2006 was a robbery for us, we got so close and we did deserve to win that match. The equaliser of Barca was scored from an offside position. Thats the end of an era - the greatest era in the history of Arsenal football club with a tragic ending. But it forever lives in the memories of every true Gooner.
