Thierry Henry the pussy

Just saw a clip of him make contact with a Spanish player with the shoulder/elbow, and fall down clutching his head when it was blatantly obvious there was no contact with the head. f**king pussy should be suspended from their next game.

Sorry but I'm not putting up with the b*llsh*t.

Yes I'm biased.

But f*ck me dead are you going to start a thread for every piece of diving or what you would call unsportsmanlike play?

Yes he made a meal of it, but so what. Puyol did cut across him and take his path. The contact was enough to send him to the ground and from footage I saw there is no way you can clearly say his head didn't come into contact with Puyols shoulder. Not his face, but still his head.

Lets not lose sight of the fact that today would have also been personal for him. That d*ckhead Aragones is nothing but a racist and his comments about Henry were disgraceful. Henry would have been win at all costs today to shove it down that clowns throat. Right or wrong that's how it was today.

But singleing him out for his own thread on that incident??? You sir are a clown!

Wake the f*ck up!

.. .. .. and this needed its own thread?

Theatrics is a part of [world] soccer and EVERY team does it. Some get away with it, some are caught by the short and curlys.

Build a bridge.

Henry is rubbish but it was an off the ball foul and as all footballers, they grab their head when they've been tapped on the arm.

Aragones is no racist and it was taken out of context. He was the one who bloody nurtured Eto'o and made him the star he is today, and if he was indeed racist Eto'o would've never progressed at Mallorca.

Exactly.

And now that I calmed down a bit :D, I do apoligise to NPK for my perhaps over the top reaction.

In saying that, there is nothing more I can say in this thread that will differ from my original post nor anything I can say that will win me any friends :lol:

And I await 100's of uselss posts from NPK about the theatrics of a very high percentage of players from around the world. I simply don't understand why this one has been stood out by it's own. I've seen every game and it really is mind boggling that there hasn't been 100's of other threads having a shot at players.

Anyway, each to their own. I'm finished in here.

Taken out of context or not, he made them. Simple as that. If he's not a racist he wouldn't have trod the line on such a thing.

As for Henry being rubbish, well that's laughable. I'm a bit hard nosed defending him, especially when my mate hybrid_tiger gets going, but I can agree that perhaps he has underachieved at international level.

But rubbish? :lol:

I'm finished again :D

FIFA have the golden boot, the golden ball - maybe they should bring in the golden rivaldo for the worst "clucthing the face in agony" acting performance

but credit also to the referee ( who i thought had a great game) for getting the call right and awarding the yellow instead of a red.

"Underachieved" would be a mega understatement.
He's perhaps as influential to France's international achievements as Steve Mcmanaman was to Real Madrid.

put wenger in as france manager, rather than that guy that looks like the dad from American Pie - then you will see henry be played like the way that he should be.

Sorry but no international defenses are ever cracked by Henry.
He's scored 5 goals in 3 world cup campaigns.
If that isn't a telling statistic, i'm not sure what is.

Have to agree. At Arsenal, the system is based around his game. That made it so huge that he resigned for another 4 years.

Anyways, Barcelona offered 50m pounds for him and Real Madrid were prepared to offer the same and even get into a bidding war, so I'll just sit back and laugh at the ones who want to say Henry is rubbish :lol:

Clearly you know better :D

henry is a premier league gun but hasnt done all that much outside of england.

thats not to say he wont do anything either. he's still playing so he alsso has the ability and talent to prove all the detractors wrong.

When i saw this i instantly thought back to the Champions League final and Thierry Henry having a hissy fit and saying he wasnt a girl because he doesnt dive. Well "whinging Henry" you are now part of the female species.
