Arsenal set to unveil legends’ statues at Emirates

We’ve long admired the busts of Herbet Chapman and Arsene Wenger at the club but now our hierachy have decided that they will erect three statues of Arsenal icons at the Emirates.

A missive has arrived at Arsenalinsider HQ, thus:

The Chairman and Directors of Arsenal Football Club have the pleasure of inviting you to the unveiling of statues to commemorate three legends in the history of Arsenal Football Club.
 
This event, which is forming part of our 125th anniversary celebrations, is taking place at Emirates Stadium on Friday 9th December.
 
Approximately 100 guests have been invited and while you are probably all intrigued to know who the three legends are, we are aiming to keep the specific details including their identities under wraps until the day itself.

So who is your guess? I’m going for Brady, Bergkamp and Brian Hornsby!

    Alex James, Frank Mclintock and Tony Adams would be the three I would put forward and Pat Rice in reserve, I wouldn’t care what anyone else thought either, countless Bergkamps, Henry’s and Vieiras will come and go but these 3 – 4 have dedicated a life time of success, and have been at the pinnacle when it was ground breaking and remained or remain Arsenal to their dying day..many will flirt with Charlie George and Liam Brady etc and all fair shouts but the fact remains they do not match up to the 3 giants I have mentioned !
