No doubt that McGrath is the best player I've seen at Villa....but better than Bergkamp and/or Cantona? No Way.
He was miles better than the pair of 'em.
Total garbage.
Nope, not total garbage. Check out McGrath beating World Champs Italy single-handedly. On his day McGrath was from another planet. I'll grant you Bergkamp could produce flashes of brilliance at the very highest level, but he had a very talented supporting cast of Dutch players around him.
As for Cantona, a great player at club level who seemed to go missing at higher levels.
Look at what Arsenal won with Bergkamp and didn't win without Bergkamp.
A pretty poor argument unless you think David Geddes and Tommy Johnson were better players for Villa than Billy Walker or Pongo Waring.
Since Bergkamp left, Man City have come to the fore and Arsenal have been forced to sell most of their best players. I think the loss of Fabregas, Nasri, van Persie, Toure and so on may also have affected Arsenal's chances of trophy glory. That and deciding to play a blind goalkeeper against Small Heath.
