Dennis Bergkamp
Greatest Ever Dutch Player in Premier League?

Arguably the greatest Dutch player to play in English football, Dennis Bergkamp is an Arsenal legend. Signed in 1995 from Inter Milan, Bergkamp mostly played as a second strike or a deep-lying striker due to his creative play and ability to link up play between midfield and forwards.

His vision and passing range also helped him rack up 94 premier league assists at Arsenal. Bergkamp scored a total of 120 goals in 423 appearances for Arsenal. He also enjoyed successful partnership initially with Ian Wright, then with Henry and Anelka.

A crucial member of Arsenal's invincible side of the early 2000s, also won three premier league titles while playing for gunners.

In February 2014, Arsenal unveiled a statue of Bergkamp outside the Emirates Stadium, as a testament to his contributions for the club.
