Ros Coe Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 (edited) I’m not sure about that, I remember Rioch saying in an article that he and Colin Todd used to discuss at Bolton who they would both sign if the opportunity was there without any money restrictions and Bergkamp was top of their lists.. So when he got the Arsenal gig he made Bergkamp his number one target. Edited May 23, 2020 by Ros Coe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rudy Posted May 23, 2020 Members Share Posted May 23, 2020 Best thing I ever heard about Bergkamp is he would say to the midfielders, when they had the ball and wanted to pass it into him, they had to watch his movements, and pass the ball to him on his second movement because the first movement was for the defender to fall for. Genius. Robben my arse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way he’s head and shoulders above him and is THE best Dutch player ever in PL it’s not even a debate sorry, only just seen like said depends on how it was measured agree, bergkamp better career in prem than robben, robben overall, bergkamp bit of a fraud, would never play in champs league RVP best dutch player to ever play in the league imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
