The diminutive midfielder was perhaps most noticeable because of his hair for the Gunners faithful (until he lost it), but, in reality, the Swedish star scored some crucial goals in Arsenal’s double-winning season in 2001/02.

He scored 17 times in all competitions that season, with 12 coming in the Premier League. He was a critical part of Arsenal’s Invincibles season in 2003/04, had a knack for being in the right place at the right time, and could glide past opposing defenders easily.

In his 324 appearances for the club, Ljungberg scored 71 goals and registered 37 assists. Across his storied Gunners career, Ljungberg won two Premier League titles, four FA Cups, and a FA Charity Shield.
