    Vermaelen, Wilshere and Rosicky should all be in with a shout there from an Arsenal p.o.v.

    If you're going that far back then Darren Anderton of Spurs.

    Dean Ashton is one that comes to mind too.

    Pretty sure Finnan was never really that injured either. No more than any other player.
