Freddie Ljungberg will always be considered amongst the best footballers Sweden has ever produced. Ljungberg was known for his aggressive style of play and was considered amongst the best midfielders of his generation.

Ad

Known for his intensity and his ability, Ljungberg was simply outstanding with his electric counter attacks. He had the ability to outlast any opposition with his combativeness and was known for his never say die attitude on the field.

The Swede had the ability to double up as an attacking midfielder and was known to be technically strong. Ljungberg was equally good at winning aerial duels and his organized moves on the flanks.

His ability to penetrate the staunchest of defences with his accelerating runs and his capability to dig deep inside the rival’s territory with his speed and control often created problems for the opposition. His one-touch passes were laden with great accuracy which shut out the best defences. He scored 41 goals in 216 appearances for Arsenal.
