Unpredictable is Underrated: Appreciating Thierry Henry

Some things - albeit in increasingly rare quantity - transcend time. 

Some artists find ways to extend their craft, their respective careers, into moments that make others stop.

It isn’t about turning heads. It isn’t about showing up to do the spectacular that is expected.

It’s about slowing down in a world that never stops. It’s about sacrificing the speed of life for a distinct purpose. To question. To challenge. To allow others to imitate, or simply enjoy.

Thierry Henry established himself as an invincible. Before that, he was a world champion. But alongside every achievement, Thierry remains the master of evading any recognition of the praise and hyperbole that fans and journalists prescribed to him every day.

There was a conscious ignorance, a near negligence when it came to publicly acknowledging his talent that made Thierry like no other. 

A refusal to focus on himself brought about an attribution of supreme confidence. Thierry could pull off the absurd, but there was always more.

More. More. More.

The Return of Arsenal’s King

“It was like a dream when he scored. It was the story you would tell a kid. It is not often like that in our game.” - Arsene Wenger
It’s hard to add to Arsene’s description of Thierry Henry’s return to the Emirates. Numbers change, but it only took 10 minutes for the Thierry wearing the #12 to establish himself amongst Gooners as the same man that led Arsenal to so much glory in the past with the match-winner against Leeds United. It’s only a short loan spell, but tonight was special, and not just for fans of the Arsenal.

What about Thierry?

By Dominic Vieira, writing from Lancaster, England
To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Barclays Premier League, the manager’s voted for their “Team of the Decade”. It was no surprise to see the selection dominated by 6 Manchester United players with the others representing Chelsea, Liverpool and Newcastle. Moments later the debate sparked on the world of twitter, why was only one Arsenal player from the 2003/04 ‘Invincibles’ team chosen? There is no concrete answer to the question, but Arsenal fans will be delighted with the inclusion of Ashley Cole, one of the world’s most accomplished left-backs. Cesc Fabregas and Dennis Bergkamp both picked up votes, but where is Thierry Henry in the team?
