5. Inspiration
The one game that left most of us in tears – for the right reasons though. Arsenal going down to a David Villa goal, coming back with Van Persie’s shot from an incredibly tight angle, and dare I say, “Arshavinnn!”
The Emirates had never been that loud for a while – the atmosphere was absolutely electric. I know I’ve watched that game a number of times after.
6. Arsenal and Joey Barton
I’d say the image is pretty self-explanatory. Joey Barton has had several incidents with Arsenal and other clubs as well (the game at Etihad that effectively left QPR with 10 men, and United without the title, for example). This is enough evidence to say, he isn’t the most loved player in the Premier League, by quite a distance.
