You dont rate Dennis Bergkamp eh?
So the Leicester hat-trick, Argentina WC goal and Newcastle goal, for starts, weren't enough? Leading us to a double was nothing then?
Be-gone

It would, but then saying Bergkamp/Henry are legends isn't an opinion... its fact

Everyone does have there own opinions but im afriad on this one, this thread is turning into an "henry appreciation thread", so i doubt this many people are wrong
Hense why i laughed at your statements which forced me into making this thread.

But again, its not a question of opinion
180+ goals in his time at Arsenal is justa fluke is it? Top scorer in several seaosns is just the standard? Scored some of the best goals ever seen in the premiership? Won the World Cup and European Cup etc etc
Give it up

correct john, i have never rated him as a top draw player. yeah he is good but not worth all the hype people give him. thats my opinion and i stick to it
when he was in the premiership with arsenal he had a great squad behind him. he wasnt a one man band. he was part of the team and this showed in the results they got in here years of domination over the premiership!
i said to john how he is alike with liverpool. as a general rule they play brillant in europe. in the premiership they are just above avergae. thats how i see henry
of course thats just, my opinion
someone mentioned bergkamp? i certainly wouldnt call him a premiership legend. especially not in the same league as zola / cantona. when i think of legends i think of those calibre of players
i dont want to repeat myself but here you go. quote from earlier in the thread
a legend imo (of course) would be someone that has made a lasting impression on football. someone like george best. bobby charlton. zidane. klinsman. pele
none of todays footballers can be classed as in there league imo
