People need to realize that awards like the Ballon d’or, Oscar, Grammy etc are worthless. It’s a small group of people voting for whoever they want to vote for, and not an actual representation of who’s the best and most deserving
@@user-xr3kw8fs5h Well yeah, that’s kind of obvious, it’s all subjective and the opinion of the voters of course. That being said, the voters still were either blind or stupid to not award him the 2004 Ballon d’Or.

The difference between Henry and all other strikers I've followed over the past 40+ years is, Henry can score all types of goals from all parts of the pitch. Throw in his pace, intelligence, assists . . . 🔥
The other day I read through comments of people comparing the prime Henry with this halland who cannot entertain us with the ball only depending on midfielders no wonder almost all his goal are from inside the box after receiving an assist
@@knight-bd9dk Haha what does this have to do with me? Are you that much of a fanboy that you take criticism of your favourite players as criticism of you? Pathetic.
Henry is the absolute best 9 ever only toped by R9 today's 9 like mbappe or haaland can ball but they score tap-ins and penalties more than anything else. Back in the days solo runs like this were big part of the game, it required condition, speed, technique and agility but nowadays every player beside the 9 will try to assist himwhich means that the whole block goes up and down just like guardiola initiated it with barcelona, efficient but takes away the beauty of the sport.
Great compilation. WHAT A BEAST!!!! People who think he was just speed need to watch the footwork, elegance, flair and skill in this video that he displayed on a REGULAR basis!!!
I had the honour of being a football mad young boy and Arsenal fan and can say i watched football for thierry henry man he was something else , the speed the skill the power, the accuracy could run or score form anywhere and alongside Bergkamp , you oaid to watch henry man could change a game alone exactly like what messi and ronaldo did too
When you talk about premier league this is the guy that brought attention to premier league him and wenger needs to be thanked arsenal was crazy famous back in africa and that's when wenger and Henry arrived i feel so privileged to support arsenal

4:31 I was 10 years old when this goal happened. I was living in my country's town. We didn't have natural gas in our house, so I used to bathe with preheated water and then warm up in front of the heater. I can never forget this match because before it started, I imagined Henry entering the penalty area from the left diagonal and placing the ball in the right corner. Right after getting out of the bath, I ran to the TV. It was very early in the match, either the 4th or 5th minute, and as soon as I looked at the screen, the goal of my dreams happened exactly as I had imagined it. Whenever I see this goal, I remember that moment and feel emotional.
This is my childhood hero. The reason i started to fall in love with football. Im to young to remember the 98WC 00EURO but i sure remember the invincibles era as a 11-12 year old! The Barcelona move gutted me for some reason, it didnt feel right, But he got his CL thropy atleast :)
An amazing footballer who was criminally denied world best player. He made alot of defenders uncomfortable by then. He had the world of football at his feet, and was a joy to watch!
This lad done it, back when it was a man's game. If he played in today's non contact game, he would be unstoppable. Messi in his own words was starstruck when he came to Barcelona. He is right up there with R9 as two of the best in any era of the game. An absolute beast with the silky skills to match.
@Ggness123 obviously...but Henry was massive from 2001 onwards. He just had that aura and the talent. There's a great picture of materazzi and zanneti arguing over who gets Henry's shirt at the end of the inter milan game after Henry demolished them if you want to look it up
there was just something about the way he struck the ball that was just so.... i dont even know what it was... sublime player, big ego too but made it cool..
one of the extremely few who could make the likes of zanetti, ramos, salgado, puyol, lucio, hyypia, among others, look like utter clowns. dude was DIFFERENT!
Henry's speciality - take the best defenders one on one and beat them badly. I saw it. Most players always avoid the best defenders but he used to personally attack the best defenders of the world.

You're completely delusional. Henry was more a sprinter and even on there, R9 was very good but in terms of magic and dribbling skills they aren't in the same league. There are a lot of better technically strikers than Henry : Weah, Eto'o, Benzema, Van Basten, Romario.
@@louminezachee2412 So comics Jokers and comedians like you do exist then... No one would pick either of the strikers you have just mentioned above... NOT ONE !!!!!
@@RFED2O That means you don't know football, simple. Technically all those names are better than Henry, and as a striker Henry could just be better than Benzema and Weah. If you watched Barcelona with Eto'o, Ronaldinho, Déco, Xavi, Iniesta you'ld understand, same for Barça with Stoikhov Guardiola etc... Their strikers were always technically superior.

The put down was that he didn't score in finals. Not that he ghosted though
@@johnyusuff7973shit happens once in a while but unfortunately that happened in the final
@@pensivevalues1949defo the best prem player ever not sure abt that though although he was amazing
Strength, power, intelligence, technically gifted, could finish from anywhere, could dribble past anyone… just unstoppable.
Speed?
@@rooandron10 no problem
And rapid. On his day there have been very few attackers ever who could legitimately say they were better than him. Between 02-05 he was electric.
intelligent+technic+fast+finishing = Mbappe
Mbappe + elegant + style = Henry
Henry + indifference = Anelka😅 math is good
The speed,the style,the finesse,the bravado,the swagger and the aura! Thierry Henry was a phenom!
Thierry Henry, Arsenal jersey, Nike boots, Total 90 ball, outside of the foot, Trivela to the bottom left corner. Nostalgia!
An absolute war crime that he doesn't have a Ballon d'Or.
How? he was never the best player in the world in any of his seasons. Stop repeating this tired old myth, nan.

R7 couldn’t tie Lenny Henry’s shoes
But the barca Guardiola team had all the beauty in the world. I guess it comes down to the players and their team dynamic to play it like that.
Myth. He was nowhere near van Basten or Romario or Batistuta, or Suarez, and many others.
@@Al-ji4gdSuarez? Imagine thinking Suarez was anywhere near Henrys level 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
@@ysycotik Suarez is better than Henry.
Great compilation. WHAT A BEAST!!!! People who think he was just speed need to watch the footwork, elegance, flair and skill in this video that he displayed on a REGULAR basis!!!
That doesn't cancel the fact, that he was faster than almost all his opponents. He could have been a good sprinter with that long and fast legs.
@@user-do1nn2cu2h oh for sure. Only Bale has recorded a faster running speed in all of football since FIFA started recording this metric.
He truly deserved the ballon d'or he was a machine.
Best player to never get the Ballon d’knot. Shame on FIFA Lenny Henry forever

The gentle way he handled the ball..Henry for me itz in the top 10 list of all time
What a legend

Truly one of the best ever!
How sad i was when arsenal lost to barca in ucl final.
Don’t forget that one of his traits is his relentless hunger to win. He will literally carry the team to win games because he hated losing so much.
