7) Kolo Toure
Toure arrived at Arsenal a nervous, jumpy kid from the Ivory Coast who actually ended up tackling Arsene Wenger in his Arsenal trial he was so eager to impress.
Toure was an unknown right back bought for pittance but has since developed into a Premier League mainstay and one of the country’s most accomplished defenders.
Whilst his powers may now be on the wain, Toure formed a formidable partnership with Sol Campbell and his passion, desire and humility are the perfect representation of Arsene Wenger’s Arsenal.
