He was a joy to watch 9 times out of 10, but he did also have his stroppy moments that won’t be seen in the highlights reels. He’d occasionally go through long periods in games where nothing his teammates did was good enough and he’d be throwing his hands in the air about every pass that wasn’t inch perfect. However he was one of those rare talents that could change a game in a moment. He was head and shoulders above everyone in the premier league for a period, and when we used to sing “we’ve got the best player in the world” we genuinely believed it.
I remember that they were still replaying Pires's goal and then cut abruptly (I thought poor live match video director) to when Reyes decked Reizeger down and then scored that goal.
@@aabidamn I remember being 15 years old & watching this in a trance. 1 minute we was 3-2 down next 4-3 up. This is the Arsenal I truly loved. I hope I can see us be the champions again. I took 98, 02 and 04 for granted when I was young.
Electrifying display.. Arsenal at their best.. Dennis Bergkamp is just brilliant !! Look at his nutmeg and sticky lasso-like through pass in goal number 4. Look at that! Speechless
Always remembered this match… Was in Hong Kong and way past midnight… desperately looking for a place to watch the match. When I finally found a pub screening the match, Arsenal was 3-1 down. The mood was sobred.Then Bergkemp scored and gave us hope that the unbeaten run will be kept intact. When Pires equalised, the whole pub erupted. The rest is is history.
As a longtime arsenal fan everytime i watched the highlights of this game with martin tyler commentating just cant help but shredding a bit of tears, what a team we had back then
Dennis Bergkamp was the core, even at the age of 34. Score the 2nd goal, nutmeg parlour and assist Reyes and the flick during the last goal. No player came close to his ability after his retirement and that's why Arsenal decline.
The crowds reaction during the first attempt is brilliant .... from almost cheering for a goal to gasping then to almost cheering then it's off the post and dismay. A roller coaster of emotions. Highbury was truly special !
It was special. From 3-1 down to 4-3 up just like that. RIP Reyes he was great for Arsenal in these times. Fell off a bit in his last few months at the club but will never be forgotten
I was there too, about 10 rows back behind the goal in the North Bank. Atmosphere was unbelievable, hugging complete strangers when that 4th goal went in.. To this day the best game I've ever seen live
I attended this game, it will live long in the memory as it was my only visit to Highbury…proud of my teams efforts that day but you can’t argue with this arsenal squad…what a team…what a day out 👌 UTB
Middlesbrough had a respectable lineup that time. Hasselbaink/Maccarone and Job upfront with Gaizka Mendieta as maestro. Zenden was on the wings with Australian GK Mark Schwarzer. This was an enjoyable game that had some top class finishing with brilliant decisive passes! I recall this game fondly as a young teen. RIP Reyes
Adam Fc You haven’t won a league title in 30 years. If you are a liverpool fan from abroad (which you’re more than likely are) and not in your late 20’s to 30’s, I can’t take you seriously.
Remember watching this in my local bar at the time in Spain..I was 17 and that is still one of my favourite Arsenal memories, I remember they were still showing the replay as it cut back to Reyes about to smash it in..R.I.P, was a great player for us in the short time he was at Arsenal..."it's REYYYYES!!" still get chills like I did when the goal went in back '04...♥️
@@obejones5927 because football is so much worse these days. Nothing exciting about watching Liverpool crossing it 50 times a game or Man City's billion pound squad or all these social media dancers.
One of the finest displays of footballing excellence I have ever had the privilege of witnessing. From Block 22 in the Clock End that season The assisting pass from Bergkamp for Reyes’ 4-3 goal is just dreamy. Exceptional.
Dennis Bergkamp was a pure footballing angel in this game. With the armsband, he pushed his team forward with that will to win. Will there ever be a player like him again?
I remember where I was when I watched this game LIVE. It was one of those games I guess. The Reyes goal is absolute finesse. Just look at the whole attack where Henry passes to Bergkamp who goes through the legs of a Boro defender and that pass from him to Reyes is inch perfect but still Reyes has to do A LOT from there but his first touch was perfect to setup the right where he smashed it, with his weaker foot, to the top right corner. The commentary is the cream on top of the cake. Just beautiful. Goosebumps and all...
1- RIP Reyes, Reyes on his prime was unbelievable. 2- Bergkamp's class! 3- What a match by Queudrue, one of the most underrated LB of the mid 2000s. 2 assists, a fantasic long shot goal and great defensively. Notice even how most Arsenal's goals are from Boro's right-center side
I remember watching this game, back when I still comfortably believe that we will win, even after 2 goals down, great great Arsenal, and that highbury atmosphere when the supporters were so close to the pitch
Was at that game sat in the North Bank, that goal from Henry was incredible but Reyes goal took the roof off the stands that day. May he rest in peace.
Rip JAR we will never forget the memory that you gave to us while growing up and of course the man who always hold arsenal together when it comes to build ups and moving the ball forward and un selfishly bergkamp
It was mad! I remember still celebrating Pires equaliser. Next think just after kick off retaken Arsenal had won back the ball & made it 4-3 RIP Reyes. Always remember him for this moment and the winner in the FA Cup at Highbury against Chelsea. Love the commentary on the goal aswell. Stand up for the Champions! We are not seen as a threat anymore sadly and don’t even compete for the title.
Oh my God, Reyes magical long direct pass. I mean how do I describe such pass? Oh miss him so much, what a team! Lehman, Campbell,, Lauren, Toure, Cole, Vieira Peres, Reyes, Ljungberg, Bergkamp & da king himself, ladies & gentle men, Thierry Henry. This squad practically turn many top team to underdog while playing with them. They humiliate you, murder you, assault you, assassinate you, and then leave you with sorrows, bitterness, pains, agony, anguish and disgrace.
This quality and style of football have not been played in the premier league since. The greatest display of football in the premier league ever. Just amazing.
That 4th goal scored by Reyes the commentary by Martin Tyler gave me goosebumps and made the hairs on the back of my neck give a standing ovation.... RIP Reyes shame he never really settled in.
'REYESSSSS' will always give me goosebumps!
