April 21, 2009 - or Andrey Arshavin Day, to some - saw one of the most thrilling fixtures in Premier League history.
Only one player had achieved the feat of scoring four goals against Liverpool - none other than Leeds forward Mark Viduka - before Gunners star Arshavin did against Rafael Benitez’s side.
