It’s been 14 years since former Arsenal midfielder David Rocastle passed away, but it’s fair to say that he certainly hasn’t been forgotten.

Arsenal rumours
Having helped the Gunners to two league titles back in 1988–89 and 1990–91, a League Cup win in 1987 as well as collecting a host of England caps, he has engrained himself firmly into the club’s lore.
So it seems fitting that the tributes have matched his contribution to their pre-Premier League success.
But he didn’t only turn out for the Gunners. Upon his departure from the club in 1992, he went on to turn out for the likes of Leeds, Manchester City, Chelsea, Norwich, Hull and Malaysian outfit Sabah before hanging up his boots in 1999.
A popular figure wherever he went, fans that remember him better than others took to the site to pay wonderful tributes to a very wonderful man.
