Henry is just like Larsson. Well loved almost anywhere he goes. I remember they said he was finished when he joined Barcelona, yeah right. Dude gave me nightmares in Fifa 05.
 
how old is henry now? i think he should have joined arsenal again after he left barca and end his career at arsenal

"Qatar is not Catalonia"

heh gotta love espaynol fans :D
 
Don't know if it's out there yet but supposedly it was just announced on Chelsea TV that the Cahill deal will be done by tomorrow and he will be available for the weekend.

Bless you.

Sounds like a lot happened while I was asleep. God damn serene finish from Henry.

Happy Wenger returns.
 
I saw the goal on a Russian Youtube video. The commentator goes crazy: "this only happens in fairytales. This only happens in fairytales!" HENRY!
 
I want to rub his beautiful head. And then kiss it. And then buy a jersey with his name.

*Swoon*

BUT THEN HE'S LEAVING! Bad Henry, y u no stay? MLS is shit.
 
Manchester United outcast Darron Gibson is considering rejecting Everton’s overtures and leaving on a free transfer this summer.

The 24-year-old will be out of contract at the end of the season. Aston Villa have also shown interest.

Bullet dodged, maybe, faridmon.
 
Happy for Henry and Arsenal fans. It was just Leeds though. Feeling better than I was about our game with Arsenal, maybe we can nick it.
 
Setting my alarm for 8, might be able to grab a ticket for the City Semi at Anfield in the morning. I had no money and was riddled with flu when the tickets first went on sale, so I missed out, but I've got a chance to redeem myself. Hope there's a Kop ticket left, even if it's a shit seat.

good luck
 
Just got back, tubes always decide to disintegrate at this time.

What a goal.

I have never heard the Emirates get that loud before, it was the perfect goal, the touch, the poise, the celebration. His exactly the kind of player Arsenal need - a born finisher.


And truly, form is temporary, class is permanent.
 
I was busy with work all afternoon, but those gifs on the last page say it all. Unreal way to pull out the win and great showing to go over to Wenger afterwards. Classy all around.
 
only way this could've been any better is if he had done the slide on knees celebration

THIS! But the celebration was epic no the less. Going to Wenger was a lovely touch and that was passion on display for everyone to see. Had chills going up my spine all though that celebration.

They're on sale tomorrow?

Edit* Nevermind, thought you meant United! Good luck mate. I'm in 306
 
not even an arsenal fan but henry's goal was genuinely heartwarming. the timing, the classic composed side foot into the corner was nostalgic, and him losing it with joy in the celebration, especially for such a chilled out player, then hugging wenger was great too. such a class player; i'm very happy for him.
 
Henry is a legend for Arsenal and one of the greatest the Premier League has ever seen.

Hopefully this guy can fire City to the success' that Henry fired Arsenal too:

Don't think Chamakh and Arshavin will ever get statues at #afc.

I don't think much of how that pair play, but what a cuntish thing to say.

Well it's true. It just shows how shit of a job they do. We already knew that with RVP being the only guy scoring goals but for Henry a guy who is 34, has not had a game of EPL standard football in years and had just come back from his holiday to score in 10 minutes of coming on just highlights it even more.
 
Henry is temporary, Chamakh is permanent.

Its a sour reminder of how much class Arsenal had. I'm pretty sure the Arsenal 2004 team, even at their age now, would destroy our current side.
I don't think I can remember the last time you posted positively about Arsenal. Not the best period in the clubs history but tonight was a pretty special night for Arsenal fans. Enjoy it tonight, lament tomorrow.
 
On a brighter note, Cantona to run for President in the French election. Has written to mayors asking for support.

Vive le roi, ou le president.
 
With 12 minutes remaining, Henry scores his 12th goal against Leeds in 12 appearances wearing the number 12 shirt in 2012

From Glen from Yorkshire, via text: "Michael Owen should take a leaf out of Scholes and Henry's book and stop tweeting and try and get back in the Man Utd first team."

So true. Michael Owen is a shameless interloper.
 
Stoked that Henry scored! Not an Arsenal fan, just a football fan.

Absolutely classic finish. Looked like 2003 for a few moments there.

His celebration was fantastic; hugging Wenger warmed my heart.

Oh and Michael Owen is a fucking worm. I'd be ashamed to have him on my club's books.
 
Effigies are kind of like statues, so who knows?

They could do a whole bench of seated statues of waster players, and make them out of a sort of dissolving stone, so they just get smaller and smaller over the years until there's nothing there.

Or a kind of wood that actually rots.

You'd be hard pressed to convince me that hasn't already happened. Chamakh looked like he was around 4"8 last night.

Now Arsenal have shown that former legends returning can work, it's only a matter of time before Eboue is once again gracing the Premier League.
 
Figure Scholesy will be on the bench against Bolton.

Got to start Welbeck. It was rough on him to take him off against City. Ideal scenario is to get out of the game without that knob Kevin Davies damaging anybody.

Ferguson accused Kompany of having ‘previous’ when it comes to dangerous tackles. City refute this and are furious that the Scot should make what they believe to be a groundless comment about one of their key players.

lmao

Wonder how much of the 20 million kitty Hughes will spend on Bent alone.
