Many fans believe that Bergkamp is one of the best players he has played for Arsenal, second only to Henry.<\/p>\n<p>However, while it will take a little while to get closer to what Simons achieved in North London, there are some unmistakable similarities between the pair.<\/p>\n<p>Leipzig, for example, is an incredibly versatile player. While he is said to be &#8220;one of the best teens in the world,&#8221; one analyst says he is more than he can play as a center forward on either wing.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, the former gunner icon spent much of his time traveling between his second striker and striker positions in Highbury, but occasionally appeared in 10 roles.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, one of the most famous things at the age of 56 was his sublime control of the ball and his ability in front of the goal, as most exemplified by its goal against Newcastle United.<\/p>\n<p>Over his career, the former Paris Saint-Germain gem has also shown keen eye for incredible ability and goals with the ball at his feet.<\/p>\n<p>For example, in 33 appearances last season, a total of 2,763 minutes was the Amsterdam-born &#8220;superstar&#8221; described by analyst Ben Matinson, who scored 11 goals and provided eight assists.<\/p>\n<div class=\"table-container\">\n<table border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" style=\"\" align=\"\" summary=\"\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th colspan=\"2\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Simon&#8217;s on 24\/25<\/p>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>exterior<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>33<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Min<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>2763&#8242;<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>the goal<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>11<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>assist<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>8<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Involvement of goals for each match<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>0.57<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Per target involvement<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>145.42&#8242;<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th colspan=\"2\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p><em>All statistics through the transfer market<\/em><\/p>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<p>Additionally, FBREF ranks in the top 4% of the top five league midfielders in Europe, with successful take-ons around 90.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, it&#8217;s another case where the club brings exciting Dutch attackers from the top European leagues, someone who appears to be able to make things happen on their own as things stand.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, he wasn&#8217;t at the level where Bergkamp was at his peak today, but there is an undeniable similarity between Simons and the legendary magician.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, Arsenal should do everything they can to sign the Leipzig Star this summer before anyone else beats them.<\/p>\n<div class=\"display-card  article article-card small  no-badge  active-content                      \" data-include-community-rating=\"false\" id=\"9ba2-4ee7-96913df9662a\" data-nosnippet=\"\">\n<div class=\"w-img \"><\/div>\n<p>                    <span data-field=\"label\" class=\"article-card-label\">Related<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"w-display-card-content regular article-block\">\n<h5 class=\"display-card-title \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Their_new_Auba_Arsenal_Start_Talks_signs_a_%E2%80%98world_class_43_million_scorer\"><\/span>\n<p>\t\t\tTheir new Auba: Arsenal Start Talks signs a &#8216;world class&#8217; \u00a343 million scorer<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p class=\"display-card-excerpt\">Prolific forwards could be what Arsenal lacks when cornering the next Aubameyang.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arsenal has been blessed with a wealth of incredible talent over the years.
