Well Overmars is my 2nd most favourite Gooner of all time behind Bergkamp so i'll go with him. There's not much between the two though...

Overmars for me. Brilliant, brilliant player. Used to love his link-up play with Bergy

Or in other words, only pass to Bergkamp.

He was a great player but nowhere near Pires.

Overmars for me. Both greats, but Overmars had more. Don't discount him just because he wasn't here as long.

Overmars knew how to use his pace.

Unlike Walcott. Although Walcott's stats last season were mightily impressive.

I don't blame Walcott in full for his lake of ability using his pace he seems to be coached to keep the ball close rather than the kick and chase...............................Also the team mates more than often push the ball to him rather than into space I am certain it is a coached thing
