    Wenger made a big mistake selling Henry so cheap a few years back, some people were saying he was past it then...which was of course total nonsense.

    Maybe we should have signed him back from Barca, obviously his age is an issue but we're not going to spend money on a young quality striker so he wouldn't have been a bad option., the talent is still and he can still finish so he's way better than anyone else we have (other than RVP of course).

    It wouldn't be too hard to make us a decent team again, for some reason Wenger doesn't seem to be able to see what's missing in the team....we've needed a goalscorer for years (RVP isn't enough) and have had too many players with no end product, a pattern which repeats itself over and over again in our signings.

    Could use a playmaker as well.

    Yes - someone (other than RvP) who can finish would make a world of difference.

    the fact henry became detremental to the team with his ego and always demanding the ball etc meant it was right to sell him. he is back now, loved by all and playing as a fan for the club he loves. wenger in your eyes doesnt always do good but letting henry go was the right thing to do at the time.

    We were actually a lot better the season after he left.
    At the time it was the right thing, especially as he wanted to go at the time.
    We desperately need some quality right now and Henry isn't the answer but Monday night was nice and has created a bit of much needed feelgood factor.

    I agree with that.

    Ade did a pretty good job of replacing him, until he turned into a money-grabbing cunt.
    It's better to burn out, than to fade away.

    It was very "vibrant" I would say.

    no point keeping someone who did not want to be there no more is there. TBH Henry would have been a shell of himself had he stayed. AW was right to get rid when he did.

    Henry was done when we sold him and wanted to go, his pace was dropping off and others had to be given a chance. He was sold at the right time just never replaced.
