I see your point, but this signing isn't just about the football on the pitch, I'm thinking Wenger also see's it as a good opportunity for the younger players, experience etc.

Oh and i'm sure it hasn't slipped his mind how this will undoubtedly boost ticket sales!

Or the boards :coffee:

Thumbs up for Wenger from me on this.

Makes sense to get Henry back for a couple of months, I really don't see what harm this can do. Obviously I hope he is still looking for a longer term option (Podolski :pray:) but in terms of adding another option to the attack, whilst Chamakh and Gervinho go away, then it's a smart move.

Plus purely for the novelty factor it's awesome.

Henry. :bow:

Don't think he will be coming alone tbh, Think he will be here to lift the team and show the other stikers how to be deadly. It will be really good to see Theo learning from the king tbh.

Also - Wenger is not one for sentiment. I think he's watched Henry in training, assessed him and fully believes he can still cut it.

Sure he's well past it, but you don't lose that class. I bet he can still pick passes for fun and if a chance falls to him, he will take it.

He picked Pires in the CL final for sentiment....

If we get Henry, we arent getting another striker in January so unless Chamakh is over his year long blip and Gervinho has stopped being a flop when they come back from the ANC then we'll be in the same situation as we are now when Henry leaves.

Id love Podolski here. Been a fan of his for years. Best left foot in the business

AW is not a silly man, he will know Henry will be a sub more or less, unless its the fa cup. Even though henry playing against the likes of the mancs and home and the scum will put shilvers down their spines.

It will be weird to have henry back with somone else wearing the no 14 shirt.

And you know henry is coming alone how, Its obvious he wants Paldolski and its highly likely he will be coming here.

Cos ive been watching Arsenal for more than 5 minutes and Wenger wouldnt want to bring in another striker along with Henry cos it will kill Chamakh, Park, other Pub Team strikers we have

I agree with you. It's the shortest of short term solutions, we all know Henry for 2 months is not really adequate. We have a month to sign Podolski (or another striker) so I'm just happy to wait and see what happens. Obviously I will be disappointed if no one else comes in.
