Thierry Henry -- gifted charismatic & a genuinely world class footballer -- has always been a prolific goalscorer of natural apparently effortless brilliance. Impossibly good on his day he has passed into Arsenal legend as the hero of a team that finally ended Manchester United's domination winning two league titles & three FA cups. He was also instrumental in France's World Cup & European Cup glories in 1998 & 2000 (becoming France's record goalscorer) & continued his incredibly successful career at Barcelona by winning the treble in his second season. But as he approached the autumn of his career Thierry's crown began to slip -- from the infamous ' Hand of Gaul' incident to a dismal World Cup 2010 campaign. Suddenly for the first time a player who Arsene Wenger once dubbed 'the greatest striker ever' was not universally loved & admired.
