Henry was 24 before he started finding the net regularly.

Henry was 24 before he started finding the net regularly.

He scored about 25 in his first season as a 22 year old.

You fucking what?

Woke up at 5am to check scores, 0:0 and Coq off injured.

Woke up again at to see that the Leg known as Thierry Henry had not only scored but had won us the game, cant wait to see this. . .

Two things havent changed I dont thinl

1) Henry still knows how to score and

2) Joker still posts like a tit (havent watched the game so he may be right about the performane but jeez geez I dont think I have ever seen you positive anything positive or at least something thst you havent taken a dig at something or somebody!)

The King is back all hail the king!

A tit is more useful tbf

With 12 minutes remaining, Henry scores his 12th goal against Leeds in 12 appearances wearing the number 12 shirt in 2012

Still dont understand why we started with our erm starting midfield? Why didnt Rosicky and Benayoun come in and give Ramsey and Arteta a rest? Ramsey looks like he should be in Dubai with his feet yup tbh

See your point. . .can you imagine waking up after a night on the lash with a pair of 'Jokers' in your mouth. . .. now that would definitely be something to moan about!

Rosicky was sick wasn't he?

Not sure about benny.

Didn't see anything wrong with the midfield last night tbh. Though Arshy worked hard, as did AOC. Chamahk was non-existent.

Leeds set out to take a draw back to Elland Rd, and other than that spud on the wing, caused no problems at all. they sat deep and made it difficult, so I don't see why people are complaining about the performance. It wasn't brilliant, but it wasn't bad either.

Exactly right, I think. This also applied to Bendtner. Our strikers are getting into scoring positions and snatching at it, or bottling it and passing. It is one of those success breeds success things, the reason why manu have performed so well. If we can get on a run of wins which includes several members of the team scoring, then we have a chance to get into the so-called winning mentality - the belief that having got the ball you can put it in the net so often that you are not worried about failure. This is why something like the CC or FA Cup can be significant. I'm with Wenger in thinking that the PL and CL are the main objectives - preferably winning them - but like a lot on GW, I think that getting a trophy under our belt would lift the team by giving them the confidence boost they need to translate that into scoring when they get the chances.

Evem though I bleed optimism when it comes to all things Arsenal. . .I would like us to take the FAC seriously, we still need to consider ourselves a work in progress when it comes to the PL and CL so we shoild not be looking at the FAC the same way we did against Stoke a few moons ago. . .I'm not a hater but I would really love to see us win something!
