Arsene Wenger spotted Patrick Vieira playing for AC Milan as a substitute and was blown away by the power and skill he possessed. When asked to sign for Arsenal, Vieira couldn't refuse. He immediately became a dominating force in England. Not known for his goals, Vieira is a catalyst for holding midfielders today. At 6'4, he is tall enough to win any header in the midfield. His great tackling ability and his will to win also made him one of the greatest ever. That will to win is what gave him the honor of playing as Arsenal's captain. Not only was he strong, but had immaculate vision and passing, especially for his role. Patrick Vieira transformed the holding midfielder role forever and is an Arsenal legend.
