Liam Brady
| Date of birth | 13 February 1956 |
| Place of birth | Dublin |
| Nationality | Irish |
| Position | Midfielder |
Widely regarded as Arsenal's leading player of the seventies, 'Chippy' enthralled crowds around the land in over 300 games for the Gunners. In an era that growingly became known for its artisans, his artistry, skill and vision was a joy to behold. The slightly-built Dubliner was handed his debut as a 17 year old in 1973 and quickly matured to take the senior midfield responsibilities when Alan Ball departed in 1976. Liam's finest hour was the 1979 FA Cup Final when he engineered all three goals in the defeat of Manchester United.
