The actual most iconic knee slide in Premier League history is immortalised in Bronze outside the Emirates.
However I'll concede it's the most iconic 'run the length of the pitch just to antagonise the opposition fans'. Mind you, very few entries in that category because it's a bit weird.

He's a grade A dickhead, what else can you say? I was just reading up some old articles and he called Wenger fake lol. 100% he left Arsenal for the money. Everyone but him sees it. His whole career has been based on it. He's never won anything of note, despite being a fairly decent striker, when he wanted to be.

He had bundles of talent but only applied it in spells. Like when there was a contract on the line.

I liked him telling Nicklas Bendtner that the reason he had been bought on in the 5-1 defeat to Spurs was because Bendtner is shit.
But also saw the blatant dip in form for us as soon as he got a full time contract. (17 league goals on loan for 1 season, 18 in 3 with a contract).

We give them so much shit then get pissy when they do it back.
You could guarantee Lamps would score or get an assist against us as soon as we started the fat chants.

I've not really got much of an issue with what that celebration. Players have got some responsibility not to do stuff that might endanger crowd safety but just celebrating in front of them is fine with me. By all means give a bit back.
As others have said, thanks to his actions and inconsistency he's remembered as a bit of a shameless dickhead rather than for scoring some genuinely excellent goals. I don't think any club he left missed him.

I know you like to defend Arsenal, but didn't be do it because he was being so antagonised (read: abused including racially)?

He was given a 2 match ban as well as a fine. Now look at what you can get away with at city.

If it's the same as Cole Palmer's recent one then it's not a new contract as such but a performance linked pay rise and extension as a clause that's been activated in the original contract. Arguably that's even more stupid but it would explain the timing.

Honestly not heard that accusation before. Is this common knowledge? Pretty amazed nothing more serious happened if it's true. It should have been a scandal with people prosecuted.

Yeah, I think it was the elephant washing chant that began when he was with us by oppo fans and then picked after he left. Twats.
