4.  Borussia Dortmund’s Marco Reus on Tomas Rosicky

Marco Reus

Marco Rues is probably one of the best wingers in the game at the moment. Any guess who is his role model? It’s none other than Arsenal Veteran Tomas Rosicky (TR7).

Reus said,

“My idol was always Tomas Rosicky. He had such a good eye for an opening and knew where his team-mates were, and he was so quick.”
