Despite making his debut before the advent of the Premier League, it wasn't until Arsene Wenger's arrival at the club in 1996 that Ray Parlour became a regular fixture of the Arsenal first team.
The 'Romford Pele' never garnered as many headlines or received as much acclaim as many of his teammates at the time, but he was an invaluable member of the Arsenal squad and was named man of the match in the 1998 FA Cup final before scoring in the 2002 final as the Gunners won the double in both seasons.
Parlour has made more Premier League appearances than any other Arsenal player, with 333 of his 464 outings for the club coming in the competition to help them to three titles - including being part of the Invincible season in his final year at Highbury.
Parlour eventually left the Gunners after 12 years in the first team having also won four FA Cups, the League Cup and the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup during what many Arsenal fans believe was an underrated career.
