For the Arsenal faithful, day before yesterday's news was as sweet as it gets - Henry's staying an Arsenal man. He said in his press conference that he likes Arsenal, and wants to stay, and most importantly, he has not spoken to any other club about his future.
What Wenger had to say about this? - Well it was all sweet. This article will throw more light on it.
What I want to talk about is the character that Henry is. He has this certain charisma, this very principled way of looking at life and his career. On the pitch, he is this flamboyant trickster, this wistful magician, this deadly finisher, who doesn't want to just score 'goals', but rather score beautiful goals. He shows us what football is all about, and why it is loved by the world. His agile movements, his masterful fakes and his breathtaking pace makes him the most admirable footballer - atleast to me. His cheeky smile, his confidence, his strength - defines him as the one of the finest footballers ever.
Off the pitch, he is as dominating as he is on it. The whole 'Stand Up, Speak Up' campaign earned him the cover page in TIME. Racism is evil, disgusting and one of the largest holes in our society. See people for who they are, not for their colour or race. What really matters is accepting who you are, and what you are inside. Loyalty and faith says a lot about a person, and coming back to Henry, that's what he has always shown - to Arsenal.
Eventhough we don't know how Theirry actually is as a person, we can say that he is passionate about what he does. He loves football, and he loves Arsenal - I hope that is truly true. If you watch him play, notice how unselfish he is on the pitch, in the 2003-04 season he had the second highest number of assists, in addition to the highest number of goals.
All this says a lot about a person, it says a lot about Henry. He has influenced me, and for that and everything else, I respect and honour him.
Note: The above picture, is one that I, myself have edited. It was orginally of one person I cannot stand - Van Nistelrooy, at Old Trafford. I removed him, and super-imposed Henry onto it - Cool! huh? It also has some deeper meaning. :)

Am I allowed to correct ur spelling and/or grammar?
Sorry, I just had to say that.
So what's different about this particular blogging website?
u can...but u rather not...its not all about the english...comment on what u feel about my views, not on my grammar..
and well this site, i think its easier, faster, and less irritating then MSN...but thats my opinion
henry is obviously a really good footballer.. Plus.. here's the deal.. i only started supporting arsenal coz of him! yeah.. obv..im not much of a footballer! can u tell?
not much of a blogger either BUT i like the blog.. this whole concept is interesting.. i dunno i might start one.. lets see.. then u can be my inspiration!!
umm...just a small note....
the last time Henry scored at Old Trafford was in 2001 when Arsenal were hammered 6 - 1 by Man Utd (Henry scoring the lone goal) . They weren't wearing that shirt at the time so technically that picture is completely untrue:p
Also , When it comes to Europe (the grandest stage of them all) , Henry rarely shines , quite an ordinary player. Van Nistelrooy on the other hand has won the Golden Boot for 3 seasons .
Also from the time of 2001 when Ruud joined Man utd he has scored more goals out toghether than Henry.
So when it comes to sticking it in the back of the net....no1 better than Ruuuddddd.
Racism ofc disgusting etc etc ...which leads me to add that fat people must not be discrimated against either (AHEM ANISH) ....
anyway i jus read ur blog which explains the err lateness of this comment...keep updating ...its fun to read for us jobless msn loafers till ur next entry...seeya!
MAN UTD FOREVER
i find nistelroy evil..and u know that so dont even mention his name on this blog. Yeah indeed nistelrooy scores goals, but 95% of them are tap ins or penalties and then he celebrates as if he has just got married! - football is indeed more than that!
Yeah i hate man utd, but i will openly admit that rooney is a class player, very promising but tempramental...
