The Caf's Roy Keane.
Although Arsenal were already on the slide they still looked title contenders until 2008.
Would Henry staying until about 2010 have made a difference to Arsenal? He would have been a talisman and might have given the club some more pride at being able to keep big stars.
From about the time Viera left it seemed to represent the beginning of the end of Arsenal as a final destination for big players. Arsenal instead became a stepping stone, eventually being forced into a cuckoldry relationship with Arsenal.
Even if Henry had stayed, I doubt Arsenal would've won the league but something was lost that Arsenal haven't been able to get back that might just have been preserved had he stayed.
