Arsenal's resident Mandarin lookalike has proved to be a pain in the neck for the Gunners ever since he first broke onto the first-team picture. It was only recently that he picked up an 'injury' after he received disciplinary action for a eventful night on the town in Copenhagen- where Danish press reported he was still situated, sulking at his treatment. Ask the big man himself and he will describe himself as a brilliant football player that can play at the highest level, though his performances on the field in English football have suggested otherwise (as did his time with Juventus). Nicklas Bendtner can be compared to Zlatan Ibrahimovich due to his ego but unfortunately it's an entirely different story where it matters. Bendtner has now seemingly fallen behind 21-year-old French striker Yaya Sanogo- which is concerning as the young striker is yet to score and has been criticised for his performances recently. In fact, it looks like Arsene Wenger would rather start Gunnersaurus up front instead of his Danish option. Fortunately for Arsenal, Bendtner has confirmed that he will be leaving the club at the end of the season when his contract expires. He'll link himself to Europe's top clubs but, in truth, it's more likely that you'll find him in the colours of Hartlepool United next season.
