Is Henry Surplus To Requirements At Barcelona? by furacao(m): 12:27am On Nov 30, 2009
Thierry Henry was a legend at Arsenal. He has not been able to re-enact his blistering form in Spain. In the el Clasico, Henry was anonymous for most of the game before he was substituted by Zlatan "Ibracadara", who scored soon after. Zlatan has 8 league goals, Messi has 7, and even Pedro, who has played in Henry's wide left position this season, has 3. Henry has only one goal. Is he surplus to requirements at Barcelona?

Henry is not yet surplus to barca but it's just dat he needs to play fewer games just as larson did in 2006. I think barca should go luis suarey if robinho doesn't come. Eventually.

This goes to show you know nothing about football. No need to dignify it with a response.

No need to dignify with a response or nothing tangible to contribute?

Read what you posted at the start.
Then go home and have a glass of wine.

Nothing tangible to contribute, as thought.

i think so cos with all the rumours surrounding robinho and d emergence of pedro. well in a club like barca at that age, i guess two good seasons is a good deal which he has exceeded.

Personally l still think his divorce from nicole Merry is still affecting him. He seems to have lost passion for the game, like his personal life is really sucking the joy out of football. that's why he even left Arsenal, to get away from it. He has tried, with the goals he scored last season, as well as yesterday night against Xerex, but he is not the same player that played for Arsenal.

If Henry is surplus to Barca's requirement, what would be of Robinho? Or are you judging him based on Madrid performance alone?
Re: Is Henry Surplus To Requirements At Barcelona? by furacao(m): 2:25pm On Dec 03, 2009
No, not on his performance against Madrid alone. But his career at Barcelona. He hasn't led the team as expected, and has been outscored by the other strikers every season, including this one. With Pedro coming up (and being spanish) his chances get slimmer as he gets older, and slower.

So you expected him to re-enact his Arsenal form in Barcelona. He has already reached his peak at Arsenal and even before he left Arsenal, he was already on the decline. I never even expected him to do up to this in Barca. Maybe, you expected Ronaldo De Lima to still be banging in 20+ goals.
Re: Is Henry Surplus To Requirements At Barcelona? by furacao(m): 6:27pm On Dec 03, 2009
Well l am believing that Barcelona bought him to re-enact that form for them, if not why would they get him? they even gave him Cryuff's number 14 to inspire him, not fuel don already finish for Igwe tank sotey him come dey play basketball!!!

Henry has done fairly well for Barca at his age. He has scored some vital goals even though he has not played as a top striker. For some one who is still regular, that should say alot about him
