You can see he doesn't anticipate his career lasting much longer, this game was 11 years after his debut against Sunderland, as he says outfield players can't go on as long as they used to.
He hoped to be proved wrong and he certainly was as he carried on playing for another eight years and said that Arsene Wenger was directly responsible for those extra years.
A proud man, I don't think Tony Adams likes to be proven wrong too often but on this occasion I am sure he won't mind.
Back to the game it was my last Highbury home game and Paul Dickov scored both goals to put Arsenal through to the next round. Dickov of course went on to manage Oldham and only got the tin tack earlier in the week!
