Runarsson followed by Taylor.
Worst CB Stepanovs easily. Silvestre was not as awful but still runs him close because of his Manc heritage and wild headshape.Personally can’t think of worse than Runarsson but I’m sure there’s been some other disasters in the past.
Worst CB also interesting. Don’t think you can really do worst midfielders, doesn’t have the same interest.

I think Stepanovs is probably the most unpopular but I thought Squillaci and Cygan were worse.
Squillaci had good spells when he was partnered with Djourou, was only with Koscielny that both would take to the pitch wearing clown costumes. Cygan was clearly worse than the guys in front of him but not generally awful, Luzhny was a good level worse for instance.I think Stepanovs is probably the most unpopular but I thought Squillaci and Cygan were worse.

Stepanovs easily worst Arsenal player I've seen, can only assume people don't really remember him when they name someone else 98 onwards.
Mango boi was decent and improving before his injury at United in 2010, afterwards became a liability.Djourou and Cygan were never starting quality, but were decent backup level I always felt.
I remember how good Pascal and Sol were at the back when we beat Inter 5-1.
I think "worst whatever at Arsenal", how many games they play should he factored in.
For example Runnarson was clearly the worst keeper here, but played like 3 cup games before being booted out...while I would say Almunia is our worst keeper, since he somehow became a ****ing starter for three years... that's unacceptable imo.
Every club can take a punt on someone that doesn't work out, that's fine...but when you spend big money on a player, or play him a lot and he's crap... that's far worse.
So for me it's...
Worst keeper - Almunia
Worst defender - Mustafi
Worst midfielder - Torreira
Worst attacker - Gervinho
...we have actually been pretty good with our midfield signings, thinking about it.
For me.
Worst goalkeeper - Runarsson. Honorable mention to Stuart Taylor / Vince Bartram.
Worst defender - Stepanovs and it's not even close Honourable mention to David Grodin.
Worst midfielder - Albert Mendez. Grimandi and Bischoff aren't far off.
Worst attacker - Sanogo / Diawara. Hard to separate them.

If you are judging it on pure lack of ability, you are right...they are awful.
Was Grimandi has bad as people are saying, or is it cause he was a terrible scout for us after that makes him look worse?
Don't remember him being THAT useless as a player.
Tbf I was probably a bit harsh on Grimandi
