On this day in 2002 Arsenal signed Gilberto Silva from Atletico Mineiro for £4.5m. He scored the first competitive goal at the Emirates Stadium.
One of greatest ever midfielders at Arsenal! What's your memory about the Brazilian?

I liked him as player and a person, as much as i liked how Allen Green and Jimmy Armfield pronounced his name on sports world commentary on BBC radio 5live at three o’clock on Saturday afternoon. And the way he bossed the midfield with Patrick Vieira, and the how he planted those bullet headers in the back of the net. Brilliant player.👌👍
