After four and a half years mister Arsenal Thierry Henry is back at his old club. The all time top goalscorer of Arsenal will sign a two-month loan deal from New York Red Bulls. The former Arsenal captain, has been training with the club during the Major League Soccer off-season. Henry will play during January and February, while fellow strikers Gervinho and Chamack will be absent at the Africa Cup of Nations.
Thierry Henry now 34 will not play a major part in the Arsenal team, he is here for two reasons. One to help Arsenal with there shortage in strikers and two for a PR move for the club. Since Henry left the club in the summer of 2007, Arsenal did not only lose there top goalscorer but they also lost a world class player. Henry has millions of fans around the world, he was considered one of the greatest in the English football league. I also was and still am a Henry admirer and can not wait to see him make his debut coming Monday in the FA cup against Leeds United.
Like i said Arsenal will get more attention in England now for signing Henry, shirts with his famous number 14 will sell like ice ream in the summer and more tickets will be sold at the Emirates stadium now there mister Arsenal Henry is back in London.
With the loss of there two big players last summer, Nasri who went to rivals Manchester City and Cesc Fabregas to Spanish giants FC Barcelona, Arsenal lost a lot of fans and shirt revenues. Now the are making it up with the signing of mister Arsenal, Thierry Henry.
The effect of his return raised media interest worldwide in Arsenal and says something extraordinary about the club’s attraction. More importantly it will raise the spirits of those most closely connected with the club. The fans will look forward to seeing him play. It will send a message that Henry identifies with their loyalty. It’s always good to see him return to the Emirates as a spectator but appearing on the pitch is a stronger show of support. He is here to help. Can't wait to see him play in the new Arsenal shirt coming Monday, welcome back Henry.
