Arsenal claimed their 13th League title on Sunday at the home of their fiercest rivals Tottenham.
阿森纳在同城死敌托特纳姆的主场夺得了他们的第13个联赛冠军。
Over the years the Gunners have produced some outstanding sides - Herbert Chapman's 1930s team, Berti Mee's double-winners of 1971, George Graham's late 1980's outfit, and of course Arsene Wenger's current table-toppers.
在过去的岁月里，阿森纳涌现了一些优秀的阵容－－查普曼30年代的球队， 博蒂 米尔1971夺得双冠王的球队，格拉汉姆80年代末的队伍，当然还有温格现在的冠军球队。
But out of all those teams that have stamped their mark on English football, who would get into a definitive Arsenal title-winning XI?
但是在这些在英格兰足球历史上留下印记的球队中，谁是阿森纳的最佳11人呢？
BBC Sport examines the options open from over 70 years of success at Highbury.
BBC体育部研究了过去70年的阿森纳冠军球员。
GOALKEEPERS
守门员
David Seaman would be many people's automatic choice for the number one spot. The former England keeper won three titles in a glorious 13-year Gunners career and was capped 75 times by his country.
西曼会是许多人的自动的选择，这位前英格兰国门在他的13年光辉英超生涯中赢得了3个英超冠军，并代表英格兰出场75次。
CANDIDATES
候选人
Jack Kelsey 杰克 科尔西(1950-62)
David Seaman 戴维 西曼(1990-2003)
Bob Wilson 博比 威尔逊(1963-73)

Seaman had terrific reactions and an imposing penalty area presence and was a mainstay in Arsenal's backline they have found difficult to replace.
西曼有着出色的反应在禁区内令人生畏，他是阿森纳后防的中流砥柱，很难替代。
But Bob Wilson and Jack Kelsey should not be discounted. Scotland stopper Wilson won the league and FA Cup Double in 1971 and has become a legend after staying on at the club as a goalkeeping coach.
但是威尔逊和科尔西也不应该被低估，苏格兰门将威尔逊在1971年赢得英超和足总杯双料冠军，此后在俱乐部担任守门员教练，成为一个传奇人物。
Kelsey was a quintessential old-fashioned goalkeeper - mad as a hatter but brave with it, and he was the undoubted star of the side that won the league in 1953.
科尔西是老式门将的代表－－非常疯狂但是非常勇敢，他毫无疑问是赢得1953年冠军的阿森纳的明星。
DEFENDERS
后卫
The right-back spot is a fight between Lee Dixon and Pat Rice. Dixon was always dependable, never getting the accolades of his more illustrious team-mates.
右后卫的竞争者是李 迪克逊和帕特 赖斯。迪克逊永远都是可靠的，但从来没有获得他的更令人瞩目的队友那样的赞誉。
CANDIDATES
候选人
Tony Adams 托尼 亚当斯(1984-2002)
Steve Bould 史迪夫 博德(1988-99)
Sol Campbell 索尔 坎贝尔(2001-present)
Ashley Cole 阿什利 科尔(1998-present)
Lee Dixon 李 迪克逊(1988-2002)
Eddie Hapgood 埃迪 哈普古德(1927-39)
Frank McLintock 弗兰克 麦克林托克(1964-73)
Pat Rice 帕特 赖斯(1967-83)

Rice, another of the 1971 side, was similarly unflappable and is now number two to Arsene Wenger.
赖斯也来自1971年的球队，他也是一个镇定的球员，现在是温格的主要助手。
Eddie Hapgood will be remembered as one of few men who could cope with the wing wizadry of Stanley Matthews.
作为少数可以对付边路魔术师斯坦利 马休斯的人之一，哈普古德将被人们所记住。
But Ashley Cole's stunning start to his Highbury career - he has already won two titles and 24 England caps - could give him the nod at left-back.
但是科尔令人吃惊的阿森纳生涯起点－－他已经夺得两次联赛冠军和代表英格兰出场24次，为他赢得了左后卫的位置。
Centre-half is not a position Arsenal have ever been short in. Frank McLintock was the organisational skipper of the 1971 side, a born leader - not dissimilar to Tony Adams.
中后卫的位置上，阿森纳从来都不缺人才。麦克林托克是1971年球队的队长，一个天生的领袖－－和亚当斯一样。
Adams was Arsenal through and through and his bravery and 100% commitment surely make him a certain pick.
亚当斯是彻底的阿森纳人，他的勇气和100％的投入为他赢得了一个位置。
Steve Bould was the reliable, unflustered partner to Adams and helped make the most famous back four in English football history the impregnable fortress it was.
作为亚当斯的搭档，博德是一个可靠和不会惊慌的队员，他是英格兰足球历史上最著名的四后卫防线－－不可攻破的堡垒－－的一员。
Sol Campbell must also be a contender after three outstanding years in a Red shirt following his controversial move from Spurs.
坎贝尔也是一个有力的竞争者，在他离开热刺的富有争议的转会之后，他在阿森纳度过了三个出色的赛季。
MIDFIELDERS
中场
Scot Alex James, famed for his long baggy shorts, won four league titles and two FA Cups in the Arsenal side of the 1930s, and his ability to do the unexpected at inside-forward was matched by Jimmy Logie, a creative force in the 1953 side.
詹姆斯以他的长长松松垮垮的短裤闻名，随30年代的阿森纳赢得了四次联赛冠军和两次足总杯，他作为内锋出人意料的表演唯有洛吉可以媲美，洛吉是1953年阿森纳的一个富有创造力的成员。
CANDIDATES
候选人
George Armstrong 乔治 阿姆斯特朗(1961-77)
Charlie George 查理 乔治(1969-75)
George Graham 乔治 格拉汉姆(1966-73)
Alex James 亚力克斯 詹姆斯(1929-37)
Jimmy Logie 吉米 洛吉(1945-55)
Robert Pires 罗伯特 皮雷(2000-present)
David Rocastle 戴维 罗卡瑟尔(1985-92)
Patrick Vieira 帕特里克 维埃拉(1996-present)

Charlie George and George Graham added flair from deep to the 1971 side, George with his ability to run past people and score goals out of nothing, and Graham for his uncanny knack of opening up defences.
乔治和格拉汉姆为1971年的球队增加了力量，乔治以过人和创造突然进球的能力见长，而格拉汉姆则可以以诡异的方式撕开对方防线。
George Armstrong was the protective cover for the defence in Bertie Mee's team, a wall of perseverance that Patrick Vieira replicates in the modern day.
阿姆斯特朗是米尔队中的中场屏障，现在的维埃拉克隆了他的中场城墙的作用。
Vieira has been a colossus for Wenger's side and is the rock upon which this team has been built.
维埃拉是温格的阿森纳队中的巨人，他是组建整个球队的基石。
In Graham's young side of the late 1980s David Rocastle was an exciting, dynamic performer, a player of great flair akin to Robert Pires.
在80年代格拉汉姆那支年轻的球队中，罗卡瑟尔是一个令人激动和极有活力的球员，他的天才类似于皮雷。
The Frenchman's dribbling skills, awareness and top-class finishing are a key component of this record-breaking team. Sadly, as Liam Brady never won the title with Arsenal, his delightful skills are not an option for this side.
皮雷的带球技术，洞察力和顶级的射门能力是这支创造纪录的阿森纳队的关键部分。可惜的是莱昂 布拉迪从来没有代表阿森纳获得过冠军，所以他的赏心悦目的技术不能成为这次评选的一部分。
FORWARDS
前锋
Ted Drake and Cliff Bastin were old-fashioned English centre-forwards - big, strong, good in the air and straightforward in their finishing.
特德 德雷克和克里夫 巴斯廷是老式的英格兰中锋－－高大，强壮，头球好并且以简洁的方式破门。
CANDIDATES
候选人
Cliff Bastin 克里夫 巴斯廷(1929-46)
Dennis Bergkamp 丹尼斯 博格坎普(1995-present)
Ted Drake 特德 德雷克(1934-45)
Thierry Henry 蒂耶里 亨利(1999-present)
Ian Wright 依安 赖特(1991-98)

They set the standard for future generations, with Drake netting an astonishing 42 goals in 41 games in his first season at Highbury.
他们为后来人设立了标准，德雷克在他加盟阿森纳的第一个赛季的42场比赛中攻入了令人吃惊的41球。
Ian Wright was the man who broke the records, becoming the club's all-time top scorer in a prolific seven-year spell.
在高产的7个赛季里，依安 赖特打破了俱乐部的纪录，成为了俱乐部历史上的最佳射手。
His lethal goal-getting was aided in the second half of his Gunners career by Dennis Bergkamp, the crafty, cunning Dutch genius with a fondness for scoring sensational goals and assisting in plenty of others.
在他阿森纳生涯的后半段，他的致命进球得到了博格坎普的帮助，这位荷兰人非常机智狡猾，喜欢技惊四座的进球，并大量助攻。
Which leaves Thierry Henry, who could lay claim to being currently the world's finest footballer. Since Wenger converted Henry from a tricky winger into an out-and-out striker the 26-year-old has become a phenomenon.
最后要提到的是亨利，他可以说得上是现在世界上最优秀的球员。自从温格把他由一个狡猾的边锋培养成一个纯粹的前锋后，这位26岁的球员已经成为一个球场上的奇才。
