Future Arsenal Legends

Which of the current Arsenal players do you think can reach legend status with us?

Yeah Cesc did along with Van Persie players with higher ambitions than just vying for a 4th place finish every season.

Plenty potentially - Gibbs seems nailed on for me for some reason, but Aaron, Jack, Ozil, Theo, the Ox etc. all could.

In that case Gareth Bale is the biggest Spurs legend ever

Any of them could to be fair. If we win pl Sagna will go down as a legend if he isn't already.
It all depends on team success and how long they stay for of course.

Legend status - Just my opinion but of the Wenger buys I'd say only Thierry,Vieira and maybe Pires would qualify so it's unlikely many if any of the current lot will. Apologies if I missed anyone blatant?

Ozil and Cazorla have the talent to become mesmeric under the right circumstances so could become club legends. Wilshere, Gibbs, Ramsey as well as possibly Ox and schezz all have age on their side but a long long way to go yet. Sagna is solid but not legend potential IMO as he's never really contributed enough going forward (I'm taking Cashley + Pires level). Kos possibly if he's part of a trophie winning defense for several seasons but otherwise no.

Bendtner is already a legend in his own dinnertime.

It all depends on an individuals perception of what makes a legend. As LDS says the number of legends in the Wenger era in very small, but then others call the likes of Ljungberg, Lehmann, Lauren, Kolo etc legends.
I would not consider Cesc an Arsenal legend, nor RvP. Great players in their time with us, but I think to be a club legend you need a bit more than being a great player.

So in answer to the question, I have my doubts any of the current squad will be remembered as legends in 20 years time.
Hopefully Ozil will stay with us and lead us to success.
