Wenger played just as many black players as he did during his successful years. The only difference was they just weren’t very good.

Eboue
Djourou
Denilson
Adebayor
Gervinho
Diaby
Gallas
Clichy
Song
Hoyte
Silvestre
Traore
Coquelin
Frimpong
Joel Campbell
Sanogo

Eboue was a brilliant RB, so not sure why you included him in your list of not very good black players. Wenger experimented and f***ked up his career, playing him as a RM. No way was a bad RB.


Of all the players to defend in that list you choose Eboue???! Really?!
Yeah, what about Frimps ffs. Guy was awesome!

Loved Eboue, he was solid, just wasn't as good as the guy he replaced or the guy that replaced him.

The mad dip in form didn't do him any favours.

He did win us the free kick that we scored from in the 2006 CL final....


He dived tbh

I don't remember it tbh, but I wouldn't be surprised at all if he did.

Some people chatting rubbish. Eboue DISPLACED Lauren after Lauren got injured, he couldn't get his place back from Eboue so left the club.

Eboue was dreadful wtf is wrong with you people??!

He had a good little purple patch during that CL run in 05/06 but so did Senderos and Flamini and both were liabilities too.

Flamini with Cesc, Rosicky, and Hleb was superb though. I loved that midfield.

Yeah they played some nice stuff tbf. I was talking about Flamini filling in at left-back where we didn’t concede a goal for something like 10 matches during that CL run.
