We asked you to name Arsene Wenger's best Arsenal XI and the top Man Utd XI from the Premier League era. Here are the results...

For the Gunners, who will bid farewell to Wenger after 22 years at the end of this season, their Invincibles of 2003/04 form the majority of their line-up.

Goalkeeper David Seaman and centre-back Tony Adams line-up alongside the trio of right-back Lauren, centre-half Sol Campbell and left-back Ashley Cole, who were key components of that unbeaten team. As were midfielders Robert Pires, Patrick Vieira and Freddie Ljungberg, and forwards Thierry Henry and Dennis Bergkamp.

Former captain Cesc Fabregas is the exception, having only joined the club as a teenager in August 2003 from Barcelona.

For United, current star David De Gea was the most popular choice to go in goal, with Gary Neville, Nemanja Vidic, Rio Ferdinand and Patrice Evra voted into a formidable defence.

Four iconic United players make up the midfield - David Beckham, Paul Scholes, Roy Keane and Ryan Giggs.

In attack, Cristiano Ronaldo and Eric Cantona were the favoured front two.
