According to Olivier Giroud, Thierry Henry trained with Arsenal last week, but the new strike sensation is unsure of whether or not it means a January return for the former skipper.
Speaking to RTL, the HFB said, “Henry’s been training with the squad but he told me he didn’t know if there’d be some kind of temporary partnership this winter.”
Henry famously returned last season, during the MLS off-season, and brought some life to the place and a team that was struggling. A wonderful goal against Leeds in the FA Cup and a crucial late goal against Sunderland were the high points, even if the heatless toads at the FA ruled out a goal against Blackburn for dubious reasons of dubiosity.
It’s 12 months on though and as great as Thierry was those legs aren’t getting any younger. If there are concerns about Arsenal’s lack of depth in the striking department, perhaps the better solution is to add to the squad on a more long-term basis.
You wouldn’t rule anything out with Arsene and Thierry though. Time will tell.

It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
what an embarrassment. shed loads of money sitting in the reserves yet old thierry might make another comeback.
He would have to be number 17.
It just doesn't feel right.
Love the guy, and last season was brilliant, but.....
It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
Gervinho and Chakma are both going to the ACON.
If Walcott doesn't sign a deal and we recieve a tempting offer he will probably go as well, despite what Wenget said about him not going in January.
Henry returning again is probably not beyond all realms of doubt. His general play is pretty shit now but I'd have him back just for seeing the odd moment of class once again.
Of course I hope we actually go and do some proper business first and foremost though.
We could shout after Theo to chuck his shirt back when he sprints off as soon as the pay risetransfer window opens. Maybe Henry would come back not to play but to teach stuff like, this is a ball, this is how you kick a ball, this is how you pass, this is a more advanced pass that involves finding a team mate...

Henry was fantastic but I don't think we should be looking back.
Having said that we do seem to give cheap a new meaning so wouldn't be surprised to see this happen.
We've probably charged him money to use the training facilities.
