Arsenal defender Jurrien Timber has crossed a significant milestone, joining an elite group of Dutch players in the club's history. The 28-year-old made his 100th appearance for the Gunners in Sunday's 1-0 victory away to Nottingham Forest. Only Dennis Bergkamp, Robin van Persie and Marc Overmars have achieved the same feat before him.
Bergkamp, van Persie and Overmars have made 423, 278 and 142 appearances for Arsenal respectively. Timber is now the 244th player of any nationality to reach a century of appearances for the club.
