Robert Pires is remembered most for his contributions to Arsenal and for his phenomenal skill with the ball at his feet. That talent shone through in the 1998 FIFA World Cup as Pires danced his way to the very top of the mountain with the National team. His victory with France was coupled with his regular wins at Arsenal and that was enough to call him a legend in the game. His 2014 arrival at FC Goa lifted spirits around the nation like never before and his captaincy made the Gaurs a force to be reckoned with.
