Robert Pires (7 goals for Eternity...)

[Tabish29]

Wenger is facing karma for not keeping these guys. He said they're too old. I disagree. But the invincibles shoud have won a CL at least. Arsenal wont even finish top 4 this season.

[kravenfox]

I'd take Pires over Fabregas any day of the week. Whether they played in different positions or not.

[Ibbz90]

The quality of football back then i think was better, more worldwide world class players.

[Amairdoesthings]

why did arsene ever sell the invincibles???

[daviddraexe]

Mais si il est champion du monde 98.

'muscle ton jeu Robert !" vous vous souvenez pas ?

[charac189]

legit tho i miss my man,, back in africa ppl use to call me pires bc we play like..lol more like i copy is game style.. lol bottom of line im a big fan and fuck domeneck or watver is motherfuckin name is imna be waitin for him at his door with 100 goons 50 in the front 50 in the back all dress in black half got ak half got auto jus to let the great pires bakc :)

[JoeMacaleita]

those were the days when arsenal were actually good....

[arsenal904]

Shame. The goal I always remember was the insane long range bending chip against Southampton.

[7CHP]

dreamy

[malouda44]

คิดถึงวันเก่าๆ ^_____^

[Saladedefruitsjolie]

Très beau montage, mais Robert Pires n'est pas champion du monde 98 !

Allez Metz !

[olivierhkmania]

@Saladedefruitsjolie Mais bien sûr que si, il est champion du monde 98. Of course he's world champion in 98. Je ne comprends pas trop ce commentaire...

[didiermaza]

see thats one thing i noticed about Pires and our other midfielders from way back when; they used to play quick one-twos then make runs immediately from deep. this gave a lot of options. i just dont see that with the current players we have. everyone just wants to pass the ball to death around the penalty area. for fucks sake we need to go back to the arsenal of old!

We miss you Bobby!

[MrDJcelcius]

this song so suck!!

[onlyteo75]

The '03 goal against Southampton is my favy. Just shows such a control of the ball. What a player.

[raphaelcoelho123]

giggs > pires... easily

[powpanda]

@raphaelcoelho123 at their peak I'm not so sure.. giggs had a much longer time at the top tho

[bolder2009]

He played the game the way it should be played. Beautiful football from one of the Arsenal greats!

[AlvaroKMO]

I'm a Celta de Vigo supporter and Arsenal supporter since i was 4 years old, i think the most beautiful game i've ever seen was that Celta-Arsenal.

Pirés, legend.

[lalindralion]

great great video. the song is pitch perfect.

[willingtosacrifice]

makes you shiver hes so fcking good my god i would love nasri or someone to actually turn into him.. people are getting close but it was definitely a lot easier for pires with thierry than it is for the current gooners cos RvP is so injured the whole time

[gurache]

c'etait la belle époque d'arsenal...

Pires etait et est toujours un superbe joueur !!

mon meilleur souvenir de lui c'est quand il déborde coté gauche avec une vitesse d'execution phénoménale contre les italiens en final de l'euro et qu'il délivre un caviar à Trézéguet !!!!

[raptor619]

pires > giggs

[jagj0]

@raptor619 thats worse than swearing

[jiajen88]

i miss the old arsenal

[AlpinKirkonen]

that last chip is so ridiculously good

[lucasbudega]

GO VILLA !

[stonecoldnwo]

what age of him first come at Arsenal?

[apocadelic]

@stonecoldnwo 10 years ago, season 2000-2001

[whoneeedsaname]

Thank you for not putting some techno beat over the top of this, this music is so much more fitting.

[hkaarsenal]

Which season is the second goal and that arsenal kit from?

[baddking]

@hkaarsenal 2001-02

[khalid7377]

Great video with very soothing music .

[BenBlunt1]

How did goal number 5 go in ??? and pires last goal (in the video) how is it possible ??? :o stunning

[lhasti]

Man I miss these days... Love this man.

[tomb833]

c'est quel chanson?

[qwwwqwww]

no offence but if you drag a line between the arsenal back then and the arsenal that plays now and loses with west bromwich albion... it's a huge gap

[victordumitru007]

Back in the day when real players used to exist and we played with a proper ball, not that jabulan crap. GREAT PLAYER! GO ARSENAL!

[ArsenaI]

Henry, Pires and Cole down the left was insane

[lhasti]

@ArsenaI cole bombing down, passes to pires, pires through ball to henry to side-foot it into the bottom right corner. It used to be so easy..

[zisssssou]

one of the best player of arsenal history

he would have been even better without chronic knee injuries

[Fasnao]

PIRES PIRES PIRES

[rizzillo91]

Could you tell me the name of this song...? thanks

[putitallongreen]

where's the soton goal?

[TheAlooGobii]

miss him

[tomyrosicky]

Grande Pires!!

Grande King Crimson!

[zouhairuk]

oh god this video makes me cry, we were the best Pires best left side midfield to ever grace the premiership.

[giriisindahouse]

There was something different about him, the way he plays. He loves quick 1-2's and thinks very very quickly. That stayed with him even at Villareal and he was also a success story there.

[elpolopositivo25]

K musik tan valurda

[Steviejamurself]

My first arsenal hero, fisrt arsenal shirt, I wish Pires and henry Retired at arsenal like bergkamp and adams

[11Cuizi]

Sans oublier le superbe assist sur le goal bien connu de Bergkamp :)

[cmcgarth1O]

I was at the game it wasnt Pires who scored it was Darren Bent

[piresthegod7]

as my name....pires the god~!!

[putxt1]

Prince of

Insouciance

Robert you are the

Escargot

Supreme

[Pietrograd]

Robert you are the best. You really miss in Metz and in Arsenal. I hope that your end of carreer will be great.

[Implosion99]

They don't make 'em like that any more, do they?

[wazo89]

he is a arsenal legend, one of the most natural football players I have ever seen, despite his odd running style, he played with a grace and style , others cannot dream of having.robert pires =arsenal legend.

[pusikurcevic]

no 5 is incredible!

I've been looking for that one for the last half hour or so!

Thanks.

Pires=world class

[didi55190]

revien lorraine .. signe a ncy

[nicozlid]

Roberto, revient à Metz !!!!!!

[boozemaass]

i missed the old days of arsenal

henry,pires,bergkamp,ljunberg.­..

now arsenal is trash

[mcgzer]

You're a retard.

[shizzlemarizzle]

@boozemaass you obviously haven't a fucking clue.

[Divian84]

Arsenal badly needs somebody like him, who isn't scared of shooting from distance and who can gets behind the defence!

[tomwalker07]

Lovely video - what's the music?

[Genzounnet]

@tomwalker07 King Crimson - Starless

[tomwalker07]

Cheers buddy.

[arsenal2death]

Pires best left side midfielder the game has produced man i miss that guy

[billiejoe1980]

@arsenal2death how about giggs.

[shofgm]

agree with you there my fellow gooner

[Qlicky]

@arsenal2death

Well put my friend! HE is sthe sole reason Im an Arsenal fan

[skeltz90]

@arsenal2death pires is very good but i have to say giggs is better =P

[daviesrio]

@arsenal2death now we gt nasri also a french man too. =)

[BukowskiPineapple]

Hi there. Great video man , he's one of my all time favourite players. He had a good hustle about him as well, in his first season he didn't. But he came on leaps and bounds. What I'd give for another Pires ... he was such a goal threat. Something our midfield lacks a bit now.

What's the name of the song ?

Cheers.

What's the name

[symphorma]

'Starless' by King Crimson.

[raxorman]

Pires is one goodlooking fellow. Ruud isnt.

[Samouelton]

He looks like Van Nistelrooy...

Same face.

[TheMoney183]

You missed the best goal ever.

[ade25bayor]

where is the goal that completes his hattrick against sunderland?.... that lob from outside the box.....

[HBK149]

just too class

[johngerda]

What's the French for Va Va Voom? Bobby Pires mais bien sur Monsieur Henry!!

[josevanreyes]

classy

[u04mo9]

MASTER!!!!!

[MilotiGunner4Life]

Respect Gunner Legend Robert Pires

PS : what's the name of this song ?!

[ligmen0s1911]

it is called ''the butterflies never get blue'' my friend :)

[kennyi33]

he is my hero!!!

[fupolo15]

what a legend

[shaigy24]

ooops it is at the end of the video

i feel like a twat lol

[shaigy24]

his one that sealed his hat tirck against middlesbrough, the lob, should have been in this video !

[dubbsoul]

i miss you bobby. very much. no one could ever replace you. you will always be my number 7

[lllJimylll]

debio ganar la champions con el arsenal. he should win the champions league with arsenal

[gunnerdan70]

Whoo Bobby Bobby

Did you hear that van persie signed a new contract and sounds dedicated to arsenal

have you heard anything about Adebayor?

AW says that despite not buying any players he has a lot of faith in his youth team

(a youth team doesn't win medals though experience and first team football does) i know arsene always produces a good youth team but we need that age and experience to lead the team forward

anyway good video man 5 stars for the gooners

[119045]

great player

[AnarchyNils]

Always respect bobby...

[betrugerkillian]

always scored cracking goals against the scum,bobby your a legend

[joekim716]

from 3:10 it looks like pires pushed that anston villa player xDD hahaha..

[SLCBGKO]

Legend

[alipires88]

misss you big timeeeeeeeeeeeee love you bobby

[7gunner7]

We miss you Bobby :'(

[showeyes]

'Starless' by King Crimson. I love this rock band.

Pires's feet were led by angels... I'll be a gunner forever... Andris from Hungary

[pilpirs1]

Manifique Séléction.

Pires étant mon joueur préféré

ça m'a vraiment fait chaud au cour de regarder cette vidéo

[acmemoe]

u missed the goal against soton'.. was a peach.. gr8 vid..

[GordonPz]

Un fenomeno!!!!

[LoneDerangerer]

i can think of much better pires goals

[RayCrimsonien]

when? where? give me that

[sleezle]

@RayCrimsonien

lazio - arsenal (champs league 2000-ish) pires bangs one over the keeper from 35 yards.

arsenal - southampton (epl 2003-ish) pires completes his hatrick as he (incredibly) bangs one over the keeper from 35 yards.

cant find the lazio goal anywhere - but it happened. i was there.

[ZeppelinBigFan]

@RayCrimsonien The Southampton-goal!

[MeNameJamaica]

@LoneDerangerer Pires' chip v Southampton?

[thefourthgibb10]

@LoneDerangerer then make a video?

[Papegambit]

the name of the song?

[fcmessin]

robert pires, robert pires , revient

[ufousonlo]

pires is player with fantastic skill

[achris02]

Pires, Edu, Viera, ljunberg

best midfield

subs fabregas

[sHamrOcko9]

my fvrite player of all time...even now i still put his name on my arsenal 06-08,08-09 jersey...that's how i show my appreciate to the true legend..u r always in my heart bobby!!!!

[albat80]

me too .. i did that on my arsenal jersey of this year . i'm from saudi arabia and i'll be in emirates stadium on 15 april to welcome him to our new stadium.

[neet101]

awesom player..premier league misses him..great song to go with it too..

[Arsenal49ers]

Give Eboue a some time he will be as good, :) just kidding but I have always belived in Eboue so did Arsene unlike some pathetic fans, Eboue is improving nicely as of late, Arsenal current players are amazing they just need to BELIEVE and they will achieve what no Arsenal team have achieved before. KEEP THE FAITH gooners

[Oblivionbegovich]

Dude eboue has been at arsenal for the last three years, improvement he had shown in three years other player show it in 6 months!!

[GodwinCarpenter]

To be fair to Eboue he is a good right back who plays out of position. Sagna is better though so Eboue will always be a decent back up, nothing more.

[syndawg89]

All Eboue is is back-up, Wenger knows this and that is why he felt sorry for him.

[h10900]

I still remember when a commentator said "it could be any number now" when arsenal beat leeds 7-0.

[u04mo9]

My best, As an arsenal fan its so sad when you have great players like this cuz its fucking hard to replace them. Damn pure ACE!!!!!!.......

[cojackghost]

I still remember the commentator's word when he scored the liverpool goal. " There no other free scoring midfielder in league right now than the elegant frenchmen". Gooners will always love you Bobby!!

[RaMbOlovesArsenal]

wow i really miss the pires, henry,vieira,wiltord days of arsenal... no one could touch them during those time...

[the1mills]

In the Anglais world we don't call him Bobby, we call him fookin Roberre!

[blackcat200593]

Le dernier buts est vraiment magnifique, comme tous les autres d'ailleurs

[7gunner7]

One of the most underrated players ever...

[Snyltetast]

I don't think he is underrated as he has won arsenal player of the year, fa player of the year and several player of the month award ... he is a gifted player no doubt about it .. but think about what he has accomplished as well .. 6th greatest player of arsenal ever according to fans and a french legend .. not underrated at all ...?

[Snyltetast]

oh and by the way .. pelé included him in the list of the 125 best living players ever a few years ago ...

[keytype]

I'd agree with Pele, what is that list?

[Snyltetast]

it is a personal list of his top 125 best living players .. several official sources has been linked with the list but the denied any connection with it stating it is 100% Pelés opinion that appears in the list ... several former arsenal players are included in the list like thierry henry, patrick vieira and dennis bergkamp ..

[adamrobson619]

great vid, pires = le boss

[Ant57fr]

Son premier but en équipe de France, un lob contre la Turquie, était pas mal non plus...

[Fakeslimshady]

buy him back!!

still not too late :P

[Raikko4]

Pure class, no one can or will do what he did on that left wing for Arsenal.

[renticharlie]

its a conspiracy dude!!! lol

[miezx]

Y he leaves arsenal? he is fantastic player..hope kolo toure stay @ arsenal till the end of his career..arsenal wont suffer anymore.

[chowfan3]

He left because his contract was up. Wenger traditionally refuses to offer more than a 1 year contract to players over 30, and Pires felt he was no longer first choice under Wenger...That's why he left. One of the saddest moments of my life.

[Vandreadman]

portugal would've been a completely different team if pires decided to play for portugal instead of france, portugal might of won a trophey lol

[mahfouz666]

Nothing but pure class.

We really miss you in arsenal man :(

[FJVeBamor]

PIRES ETERNO

[chubaka9994]

lej

[WickedMediaz]

legend

[NODEMAGO]

great player.

he made the good choice to go Villareal after his great carrer in arsenal. and he s still excellent in Spain.

we miss him in France selection sometimes or his used to...

allez paris !

[arsenalgooner100]

arsenal need a new pires but no one can live up to his sheer class

[messihardaway35]

he is amazing!

[Belcic23]

true legend

[wulang1986]

Ce joueur est pour moi le meilleur joueur de tous les temps. Il n'y a que lui pour avoir la lucidité pour lober le gardien après avoir fait un coup du sombrero...Beaucoup de joueurs aurait frappé en force à la place.

Robby est un magicien quand il a le ballon dans les pieds. Un joueur fantastique, une carrière fantastique, et il a encore beaucoup de ressources...

Robby...un joueur de grande classe...

[30stone]

Best midfielder in the premiership in his time.

[omaress]

come back to arsenal

[elfenlied57]

il a joue a metz oue

[Ant57fr]

Oué j'm'en souviens !!

[suvegati]

What is the name of song?

[RayCrimsonien]

Starless (King Crimson)

[Onlyrayparlour]

Merci bien. Bobby will always be loved at The (New) Home of Football - It was a privilege to see him play, only now he's gone can we see how much we miss his talent

[partha1618]

Have to say this is a beautiful video for a Highbury Legend. A wondrous player 'Bobby' was and still is.

Class

[lifeseeker82]

Classy Video with classy song.

Starless.

[OoSPIoO]

Deviner qui nous manque vraiment a gauche du milieu français ? Pires. Il c'est fait éjecter par ce con de Domenech et ça n'a rien à voir avec un choix sportif.Ce mec laisse une trace indélébile dans chaque club ou il joue (Metz, Marseille, Arsenal et maintenant Villareal). Franchement je comprendrais jamais comment on peut ce passer d'un joueur comme ça. Mais il répond de la meilleur manière, en propulsant Villareal 2ème de liga et en étant titulaire a 34ans : ), et ça ce n'est pas par hasard.

[elano11blumer]

what was the match of the last goal?

[ThierryDen14]

vs southampton season 02/03

[ToBeAGooner]

Goal against Villa has to be #1!

[charly2727]

magnifique

[Lecapitaineasperge]

j'aime pas trop pires mais y'a des buts somptueux, j'avoue

[Coocky4spring]

Waouh! Superbe vidéo! Merci pour la compilation de ces très beaux buts!
