@Hockalees: I watch the “Magic Moment” vid anytime I need to pick up my day. I’ll never be able to do anything as good as Bergkamp was at scoring goals.

Some goals you can see coming from a mile away but he seemed to have a knack for scoring in situations when the defense didn’t seem particularly troubled and making it look easy. If that makes sense.

For that matter... if you have 6:30 minutes to reminisce about the pure brilliance of the player. I love the clips where you see him just raise his hand ever so briefly to call for the ball... boy did he know what to do with it when it found him.

Time to dig out disc 1 of my Arsenal: Centurions DVD... the Dutch Master indeed. And it doesn't include one of my favorite Bergkamp moments... "DENNISH BERCHKAMP! DENNISH BERCHKAMP! DENNISH BERCHKAMP! DENNISH BERCHKAMP! DENNISH BERCHKAMP! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Goat – it’s the classic DB swagger, right? No need to double-check, that s**t is in the net.

If it was any other player, I’d call it arrogant. Not Bergkamp though.

Paging Joep Smeets to translate….
I love how he turns around and is walking away before it even goes in.
