After Thierry Henry dismissed pathetic reports that he was unhappy at Arsenal and sought a move away from North London in the transfer window, he has now said he wants to be a Gooner for life.
Speaking with the French magazine L’Equipe, Henry gave the news all Arsenal fans love to hear.
‘Do I regret having extending my deal at Arsenal? No, I am keen to stay all life long at Arsenal,’ said Henry in L’Equipe.
‘I am fine here, I could never play in any other English team. If an opportunity like Barcelona comes again, with all my respect for such a club, I will refuse.’
‘It was one of my last decisions of my career. I don’t feel I have lost anything, I have no regret.’
‘Arsenal matches my ambitions, it could make some people laugh, but here in England there is a real culture – a love for the shirt.’
‘Players stay several years in their clubs. Once you have been adopted by the fans they show you real gratitude for your whole life.’
He looked hungry again yesterday, and whilst he wasn’t at his goal scoring best, he worked his socks off and bled Red & White for the team.
