Tony Adams won the last and only European Cup with Arsenal as an alcoholic: ‘There was contempt in Dennis Bergkamp’s look’

If Arsenal win the Champions League this Saturday evening, legend Tony Adams, whose statue stands next to that of Dennis Bergkamp at the Emirates Stadium in London, will celebrate not with champagne but with a glass of Spa blue. More than thirty years ago, Arsenal won the only European Cup, it was also the last trophy in the ‘previous’ life of Adams, who, after a 44-day pub crawl after the 1996 European Championship, would never drink a drop again and made his career many times greater.
