    Henry and Vieira weren't first team starters for France 98. They didn't even start in the final from what I remember. I think it was Euro 2000 when Henry starting scoring for France.

    Henry scored 4 goals for France in 1998.

    Vieira didn't start the final but he set up the final goal and Played in another match.

    My whole point is they were around winners independent of Arsenal.

    I'm not taking anything away from those guys but performing for Internationals is different from a league challenge and title. When you have the right atmosphere in the changing room, things can happen. But as we've seen over the years, we have league winners and international cup winners in the squad now and seasons before but we have the same problems.
