Patrick Vieira: Five current Arsenal players would fit into the 'Invincibles' squad

Arsenal legend Patrick Vieira has claimed that several players from the current squad would be capable of playing in the legendary 'Invincibles' team that went unbeaten in the 2003-2004 season. In an interview with Sky Sports, he compiled a combined XI of players from both eras. This is reported by Goal.com .

Vieira praised the skills of Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka, placing them in the starting XI in place of Gilberto Silva and Freddie Ljungberg, respectively. In defense, he selected Gabriel Magalhaes to replace Kolo Toure and chose Jurrien Timber as the right-back.

Regarding goalkeepers, Vieira chose David Raya over the legendary Jens Lehmann, while insisting that the attacking duo of Thierry Henry and Dennis Bergkamp should remain untouched. In midfield, Robert Pires kept his place.

Touching on the manager position, while acknowledging Mikel Arteta's hard work, Vieira still chose Arsene Wenger. According to him, Wenger was peerless in his ability to bring star players to the club for very favorable transfer fees.
