With 12 minutes remaining, Henry scores his 12th goal against Leeds in 12 appearances wearing the number 12 shirt in 2012

Yeah, but he's still a dickhead.

Yet another example of what a great decision it always is to play a second choice keeper who has done nothing but sit on his arse all season.
[/quote]

No goalkeeper in the world would have saved Rooney's first. And I fail to see how the second goal was his fault either.
[/quote]

It was poor kick from the keeper that resulted in the 2nd goal

How is Henry a dickhead? He's a fantastic footballer and a great guy, always had a great word to say about us, and personally I think he's one of the best the premier league has ever seen.


...oh wait, are you Irish?
 
I think henry was the best striker ever in the prem, maybe not the most prolific but with regards to influence on your team. henry at his peak was better than shearer at his peak, at least I know which one I wish we had in their prime.

Yep, any day. And he's not really a dickhead is he? Not many misdemeanour's have blotted his career. Of course, all the Irish probably hate him, but they hate everyone anyway, whether they're Irish, French or English. Especially the former and the latter.

He's easily one of the best players to ever play in the Premiership, for how prolific RVN was, I'd take Henry over him too.

Why would it get you flamed? Those two at their peak were almost unplayable at times, they could both create something from nothing, in a shit game we're you're struggling to break the deadlock. Pace, power, finishing, creativity. Everything a top attacker is about.

the flaming I fear is because there are some that want to rewrite history. I never got to see rush but pound for pound torres was the best striker I ever saw in red.

03/04 – scored 24 times and picked up 27 assists in 37 games

94/95 – Shearer holds the record for the highest tally by any player in any season of the game, scoring 34 goals and picking up 16 assists in 42 matches.

He definitely is. He had his head stuck up his arse for years and why Wenger wasn't too sad to see him leave.

Great player though. He'd be in my Prem 11 team.
 
When there was talk of him being available why did we not make an approach? (I know some here despised the idea when I asked then)

Yet Gerrard does the same - from midfield - and gets nothing like the plaudits.

Not denying that Henry was a tremendous player but no way would I put him over Shearer (who scored a huge number of his goals in a struggling Newcastle team), Roy Keane and others. I wouldn't even have him as the best from Arsenal; Bergkamp was a better player for mine and Pires - when at his peak - was devastating.

As for whoever it was - no, I'm not Irish but that doesn't change the fact he was a pompous cheat. Sure, he's said some nice things about us but so did Diouf; means nothing really.
 
If Thierry Henry is apparently the only footballer still playing to have a statue of himself outside a stadium. Then whats with the statue of Nani outside Craven Cottage?

Wear a Sherlock mask.

That'll fox 'em !

No, but seriously....later plane/train/etc....
 
For me...Bergkamp was the best player to play in the premiership. I know other people will disagree with that, but that is my opinion.

I absolutely loved Bergkamp.
