henry decides to stay at arsenal

You really are on one arnt you siarc?...you for got to mention Cruyff slagging off Barca's chances too..... bloody Germans!!;)

"With his track record of what he has achieved in France and England it only lacked a spell in Spain to give him the rubber stamp. This spell could have been at Barcelona."

Cruyff believes Barca will find it difficult next season to defend their European and Spanish crowns.

He added: "Next year everything starts again from zero, nothing has been won and it is easier to arrive than to maintain success.

"For this reason it would have been good that Henry signed because he is a great player."

Barcelona are currently searching for reinforcements in attack.

Henrik Larsson is returning to his native Sweden while Henry's snub came as a major disappointment.

Villarreal's former Manchester United striker Diego Forlan is the latest player to be linked with Frank Rijkaard's men.



I've been watching the Arsenal since 1973.I've seen a lot of players come and go..trust me Henry is special.

how so? i'm not trying to be iconoclastic you know
also i'm not wholly convinced that 'bloody germans' is an ironic commentary on dutch/german history

:D the Irony is in the smilie....gedit?:D

And I was refering to Lehman....;)
 
I thought it was interesting.... I dont think Henry is as in love with the ARSE as much as you lot are with him.

Its a shame as he is without doubt a great player but he comes accross as such a f**king twat with his whinging and stirring...

Who care's, he's staying that's all that matters.

twas in the original post
a few times i've seen comments about him being the best player ever to have played in england, which whilst untrue, isn't that tendentious, if henry played in spain or italy that would be an absurd claim
i think chelsea might get one or two off that list in any case :s

and what johan cruyff thinks, if that's of any consequence
I wouldn't make that claim either for any of the players you've listed - not zidane, or nedved, or either of the brazilian dental models-and certainly not messi or eto'o

don't care if he goes home and makes voodoo dollies of dein and wenger each night, so long as he does the job on the pitch!
it's how he makes his living, don't expect sentiment to be his prime driving force
 
naturally
maybe i should restate my obscurely phrased (non)conclusion

1) there are perhaps half a dozen or more players of thierry henry's level or better playing in italy or spain
2) so it would be difficult to argue he was easily the best player in spain or italy now were he at inter or barcelona for example
3) that he can be plausibly described as such in the premiership, or even as the best ever in england, reflects poorly on the ability of english football to attract those elite wanked upon footballing semideities a la cruyff, platini, zidane
 
Dien stated that one Spanish club offred 50 million for Henry, that's alot of money for an "above avarage, but not that good a player" *

what if I said he's the best striker The Arsenal have had...any better??


*Summery of siarc's obeservations.;)

Lots of people are...your point is??? (this is skyscraper...non?)......

Fuck little small time Arsenal. You'll never take our record. You'll Never Win Anything In Europe. Henry. Fish. Pond.
 
iROBOT said:
Winning Henry is enough...

Is it fuck.

Winning trophies is what it's about.

You would happily swap a Champions League trophy and £50m for a trophyless season and a choker who doesn't perform when it really matters.

As for the living in the future part. Nice one, we're all pleased that you are going to win everything in the future.

Join the queue, behind the Toon Army.

18 leauges and 5 European cups!

But hey, you get players who belong to your club, to sign additional contracts!

Wow! ;)

if someone thought henry is the best in the premiership that's cool, i'm not sure i quite agree but he is an amazing player, and i think most people would think rating him as the best ever in england was a little optimistic, though not as outlandish as to say kaka is the best ever to have played in italy, to make an awkward comparison

fuck it, i'm getting tedious here!

as for best arsenal forward, my choice has just retired, though henry has amazing instincts and acceleration as well as technique, so i won't argue with you there

big stadiums mean f'all. the fat crying geordie scum have a big stadium.
Well I cant answer for yet another bunch of northerners...but (apprenty) The Arsenal stadium will be the most profitable in the world...and you only have to look across the Capital to see what (if you can pardon the pun) what an injection of capital can do for you....The Arsenals form in the Prem and FA cup will remain as good as it's been, we're back on track.

I'm never wrong

Is this what it's come to in these parts? You sad southern fuck. We played shit. Last thing I saw was the team with the trophy. Not sure if that would have been more enjoyable than a cockney cunt crying, guess I'll find out tomorrow when the sad cunts will be on the box pretending they deserved to win what we have 5 times.
