Thierry Henry (v Charlton Athletic, 2 October 2004)
It was a routine 4-0 home win over lowly London rivals Charlton but the day was illuminated by a moment of magic by the irrepressible Frenchman.
This was Arsenal’s 48th unbeaten game in a row; the sequence would, of course, end at 49 but before the misery of Old Trafford, the Gunners faithful were treated to this sublime backheel, as Henry nutmegged Addicks defender Jonathan Fortune with this audacious effort that found the far corner.
