He's not half the player he was but he still carries the aura of his own legend. I have a feeling you are missing my point completely in order to avoid saying anything negative about your messiah. |

If you can't enjoy a bit of melodrama in football then psschhh.
I thought it was all great. Panto an milked to fuck, but that's exactly what the crowd wanted. Grinchy bastards. |

Do you have any comments on the point I am actually making or are you going to keep deliberately avoiding it? I have a feeling a sarcastic remark on an insult will be a more likely reply than a constructed opinion but I'll wait and see all the same. |

Perhaps you might be overthinking this. Should we have gone for Robbie Keane instead? |

The proven goalscorer managed 4 goals in 32 appearances in his last season in a top quality league while playing for Barcelona with the likes craft of Xavi and Iniesta behind him. If you disagree, I have no problem with that. I've said I may be well wide of the mark but I think it's going to be very interesting watching the dynamics of the squad while he is there. They could have signed a player of equal ability to Henry that would have offered the same option with none of the baggage that comes with him. Just my humble opinion. |

That touch and finish was absolute class. One of the nice moments of football this season along with Scholes turning up to play City.
From what I heard he was absolutely knackered after 20 mins or so. Doesn't bode well when he is playing in the PL. |

I think you are reading too much into the situation and assuming far too much.

A club legend returns and subsequently scores the winner in front of the home crowd - a few weeks after he had a statue unveiled of himself forever placing him amongst the legends of our club... Clearly emotions were running high. If Ronaldo ever rejoins the club, and scores the winner in his first game back I bet you lot will be jizzing all over yourselves at his celebration... And quite rightly too! |

Van Persie sounds genuine happy on twitter though. It's only for 7 weeks, then he will return to MSL. Until then, it will be a honeymoon for Henry, the club, the fans and the squad, not enough time for people associated with the club to get annoyed with him. |

Let's get some perspective here. He was a club legend for you, and at 34 years old has returned to "help the club out" much like Scholes has for us. He scored a goal against Championship opposition in the 3rd Round of the FA Cup, does he really need to create this huge "Henry Show" after the game because of it? I'd happily bet my right testical that if Scholes scored the winner against City on Sunday he'd have dyed his hair black and worn a fake moustache if it meant he could have got out of the stadium unnoticed at the end of the game. It was one of the cringiest things I've ever seen. |

I'm sure that if Giggs was milking the occasion like Henry did, you would think it was cringeworthy as well. That's ok, it only means you like players like Scholes who get on with things and keep their feet on the ground, so be it. Try to understand that some players like Henry like to entertain people and put on a show. If it's not your cup of tea, fine, but don't hiss out your disapproval all the time. We get it now. |

We've used the line about Ronaldo many a time - "he's a cunt but he's our cunt". I'm sure Arsenal fans have a bitta that logic regarding Henry!

Are you telling me you wouldn't go around lapping up every single second of being the match-winning goalscorer, playing for the club you love in front of the fans that worship you? It was a special moment no matter who we were playing against... Seriously some of you lost must be void of personality. And I bet my right testie that if Cantona ever came back to United near the end, and did that he'd be lapping every single second of it up, and so would you. |

Turned out to be a good move, rather than tainting his legend he has just increased it. Well done Henry, nice to see a player show so much love and respect for his old club and gaffer.

Good signing, in terms of impact probably similar to our move for Larsson – I think Larsson started more games, but Henry scored two crucial goals - and of course Henry was an arsenal legend and a boost to the fans to see him back.
