Koke Posted 17 December 2008 Posted 17 December 2008 Just been looking through Henry's goals this evening whilst at Arsenal, and my Lord, this man have scored some beauties. One the funny ones is the one where he made Carragher look like the complete muppet that he is. One of my personal favorite is certainly this one in a pre-season game I think. His first and second touch were absolute sublime. His third was just out of this world. I could sit here all night and upload sublime quality Henry goals - Best player the Premiership has ever seen. The bloke is a legend.
Corky Posted 17 December 2008 Posted 17 December 2008 He certainly was a truly world-class player at Arsenal. Even made them likeable for a while (and I think Phube would admit that). Don't know about best player, don't think we'll ever know, but it was a priviledge to watch him at Filbert St/Way, and on the TV. One of the best examples of foreigners being good for the English game.
Libertine Posted 17 December 2008 Posted 17 December 2008 Second best to Bergkamp. Henry always praised DB at Arsenal because of his through-balls, positional sense etc. Brilliant.

Sparky Posted 17 December 2008 Posted 17 December 2008 Wasnt a massive fan of his the way i was of Bergkamp / Zola / Cantona but cant take away from him that he was an awesome talent when he played on these shores
potter3 Posted 17 December 2008 Posted 17 December 2008 One of my favourite goals of his was that one he curled uusing the outside of his boot in the 3rd or 4th Champions League qualifier a few years ago, against some Eastern team. He certainly was a truly world-class player at Arsenal. Even made them likeable for a while (and I think Phube would admit that). Good luck with that
Finnegan Posted 17 December 2008 Posted 17 December 2008 You forget Phube doesn't like football. He likes England and he likes Leicester. Henry is neither English nor a Leicester player so Phube does not like him.
ousefox Posted 17 December 2008 Posted 17 December 2008 Henry was the best signing Wenger has ever made. It's a shame he has done nothing like what he did at Arsenal with Barca
Koke Posted 17 December 2008 Author Posted 17 December 2008 One of my favourite goals of his was that one he curled uusing the outside of his boot in the 3rd or 4th Champions League qualifier a few years ago, against some Eastern team. I remember that. I've been looking for it but can't find it. I think it was against Sparta Prague. Quality goal that was. There was also this super goal he scored against Liverpool at Highbury - That was a typical trademark Henry goal curling the ball with his inside foot into the top corner.
morris1234 Posted 17 December 2008 Posted 17 December 2008 this man invented the cut inside goal as i call it, moves into the wing cuts inside onto his right foot and bends it perfectly into the top far corner! sublime!

Koke Posted 17 December 2008 Author Posted 17 December 2008 That's the one Morris, what a finish, ya beauty.
morris1234 Posted 17 December 2008 Posted 17 December 2008 That's the one Morris, what a finish, ya beauty. has to be the iconic one against united though! http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=sbASd5CU3H8
Raj Posted 17 December 2008 Posted 17 December 2008 Thought this was about the bloke who used to do the Post Horn gallop.
morris1234 Posted 17 December 2008 Posted 17 December 2008 nice little vid this http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=_AdZwed-m8E
DB11 Posted 18 December 2008 Posted 18 December 2008 Thought this was about the bloke who used to do the Post Horn gallop. I actually did
Ric Flair Posted 18 December 2008 Posted 18 December 2008 Quite simply a world class player, who is the best finisher the Premiership has ever seen. Cantona, Zola and Bergkamp were all amazing players and I loved them all, but Henry's prolificness and sheer genius in front of goal set's him apart from those 3 IMO.
CosbehFox Posted 18 December 2008 Posted 18 December 2008 The dog's but always call Bergkamp the best Premiership player. He floated on water, a master of the ball.
