ARSENAL LEGEND DENNIS Bergkamp may be long retired, but his spirit lives on in football pitches around the world.
Bergkamp was renowned for his technical ability and one such example of his quick-thinking and neat skill came in a 2002 game against Newcastle United.
After making a surging run forward from deep midfield, the Gunners playmaker was fed a teasing pass from Robert Pires at the edge of the area, before conjuring one of the most enduring images of the Premier League era: nonchalantly flicking the ball around Nikos Dabizas and placing the ball well beyond the reach of Shay Given.
Indeed, at one small-sided game in Derry this month, a player has pulled off his best impression of the former Netherlands forward.
OK, it’s not quite the cauldron of St James’ Park back in 2002, but it’s still fairly impressive.

Must be something in it there is a lot of managers before saying stuff about Fergie the bully of refs just look at Howard Webb why it it’s only when someone says something said about united the FA come done hard is it because there chairman sits on the FA board I wonder ?
What?
David Gill was voted on the FA board by the premier league chairmen… As was David Dein, former Arsenal chairman, who Gill replaced, don’t be so ambiguous with your facts
Just another bitter Abu, learn your facts before you make stupid statements
A lot of manure supporters on here
Learn my facts why is the chairman not on the board
What?
Seriously Gavin get a clue
Start thinking the manure way u mean no thanks
Gavin please stop using the term manure, it derives from a particularly nasty Munich chant originating from Leeds fans, David Gill sits on the board, as Dein did previously, as the Premier Leagues representative, he has no control or leverage over the disciplinary procedure, if he did do you think Sir Alex would have had a touch line ban in each of the last two years, or Rooney have been rightly made an example of after his foul mouthed tirade down the camera after the West Ham game the year before last.
