02 Player Of The Month- November

One player ran away with our November Player of the Month poll - William Gallas.

The Club captain scooped the award for the first time, winning with a staggering 57per cent of the vote. Last month's winner Cesc Fabregas came in second and Alex Hleb third.

Gallas played in four games during November, scoring two crucial goals. His first against Manchester United preserved the Gunners' table-topping status, and his second, against Wigan, typified his attitude. Bounding out from the back he eventually nodded home from a tight angle to break the deadlock.

The Frenchman is clearly held in similar esteem with his team-mates - Kolo Toure drawing comparisons with previous captains like Patrick Vieira and Tony Adams.

Fabregas also enjoyed a stellar month, scoring against Manchester United and continuing his rise as one of the league's best midfielders. But he had to settle for second place in our poll. Alex Hleb finished third after another sublime month.
