Thierry Henry, Robert Pires, Dennis Bergkamp, Ian Wright. Names that just roll off the tongue, oozing class, silk and flair that have illuminated north London for the last number of years. Bringing Gunners supporters to their feet with breath-taking pieces of skill and jaw-dropping goals, it's players like these which have gained Arsene Wenger's men worldwide recognition for playing some of the most fluid and attractive football on the continent. Who could forget Henry's cheeky free-kick against Chelsea in 2004 whilst the wall was preparing itself or Bergkamp's unbelievable piece of skill to flick the ball past Newcastle's Aaron Hughes before coolly slotting into the back of the net? However, the fact is that it's not just all about the superstars. Arsenal supporters' memories aren't just confined to recapturing the exquisite moments from the likes of Henry, Pires et al. There have been surprises aplenty inside the walls of Highbury and the Emirates Stadium, as heroes have unearthed themselves in the most unlikeliest of fashions. Players who have been the subject of ridicule and frustration in the past have stepped forward and scored some of the most important goals in the club's recent history, much to everyone's surprise. There have been sumptuous 30 yard piledrivers from full-backs, four-goal blitzes and even a goal from a certain Nicklas Bendtner. Take a look at the ten players who atoned for surprised Gunners supporters with memorable goals.
