8 years ago today, my son's first trip to the Emirates. We saw Mkhitaryan and Iwobi score. Unfortunately, Chelsea put in three.

George Armstrong made his first-team debut at just 17 against Blackpool on 24 February 1962, a match Arsenal won 1–0. He would go on to make 621 appearances for the club, then an all-time Arsenal record.

Charlie George at Hackney Marshes.
One of England’s best-known footballers, standing where ordinary Londoners played every Sunday.
