Great photo capturing a heartfelt tribute by Arsenal players to their late legend, David Rocastle, during the Premier League match against Liverpool on April 3, 2021, at Emirates Stadium in London. The image shows Arsenal players wearing the iconic number 12 jerseys adorned with Rocastle's name and the number 8 on the back, as they warm up before the highly-anticipated clash against their rivals. Rocastle, fondly known as "Rocky," was a midfielder who played for Arsenal from 1985 to 1996, making a total of 323 appearances and scoring 62 goals. He was a crucial figure in Arsenal's success during the late 1980s and early 1990s, helping the team win the League Championship in 1989 and the FA Cup in 1993. Tragically, Rocastle passed away in 2001 at the age of 33 due to non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The photo is a poignant reminder of the deep connection between the fans, the club, and their beloved players. It also highlights the enduring legacy of Rocastle, who continues to be remembered as a hero and an inspiration to generations of Arsenal supporters. The players' decision to wear the Rocastle jerseys during the warm-up is a testament to the respect and admiration they hold for the man who wore the Arsenal colors with pride and passion. The image, taken by renowned sports photographer David Price, captures the essence of the moment, with the players focusing intently on their preparations while wearing the iconic kits that pay tribute to Rocastle. The photo is a powerful reminder of the emotional connection between fans, players, and the game of soccer, and the enduring power of sport to bring people together in times of remembrance and celebration.
