Yeah he's a mad striker, real quick and athletic but you can't say he's not arrogant. It's in his blood!

I think you need a bit of arrogance to be a good player. The French and Italians have got a bit too much and where did that get em in the world cup.

But so do the Brazilians.... :p

Fools, the lot of ya! Henry complains every day. if he falls over on the field and doesnt get a free kick he threatens to walk off the pitch claiming racism ( he did that last year, saying boo hoo, the crowds talking to me i dont wanna play) he thinks he is the most important person in the world and thinks he's the damn best. hes an all round arrogant knob ( eg screaming in defenders face when they won UCL match last week).

Silvestre doesnt complain cos hes at a champion club, but as for the lot of u thinking he isnt as arrogant, well..u must be as blind as wenger not seeing all those fouls his teams commit * Ay ay knudge knudge*

nah, the reason why i like Man Utd was watching:

gigg's goal against arsenal in the FA '99 semi-final
beckham's goal against Wimbledon '93
scholes as a player, he is awesome, still remember that volley he did off Beck's corner
the treble in '99 where they almost lost...

oh, and i forgot, Cantona's kick!!!


thats the same with me "admiring" henry...nowdays, soccer passion is greater than b4, but ppl are not appreciating it as much...and thats kinda killing it...

I dunno whether the passion is greater today, i reckon more players are spoilt brats these days.

Some bloody good moments you mention to, i remember all of them vividly.

I reckon probably the best premier league game ive seen was Leicester v Bolton on 2001/2002. It was either 2-2 or 3-2 but in terms of exitment in the last few moments and end to end play, nothing beats it (except UCL99 man u of course).
Another good recent moment was bergkamps goal against arsenal- still dont know how he did it

are we critising henry's football skills or his attitude/personality? in terms of his skill, he is class. How many other players in the premiership can do what he does. He keeps the defense honest, cuts through gaps which werent gaps in the first place and is a decent finisher. His attitude on the other hand is pathetic, especially his feigning of injuries. Its a good thing wenger turned him from fullback to striker, he would of been a waste like he was in italy.

speaking of classic matches this season so far, Wolves Vs Leicester a few weeks ago. Leicester was leading 3 - 0 after 30 mins or some crap, then wolves come back scoring all 4 goals after the 50th minute, and the winner didnt come till the 86th minute.

Henry is actually pretty good, actually the only quality player in the whole Arsenal squad. Without Henry, Arsenal might as well just stand in front of their own goals all day, because they won't score. :D
