afc Henry: Life at Barca is pure hell

[Taurus]

THIERRY HENRY has talked for the first time about his hell at Barcelona. The former Arsenal striker admits he misses daughter Tea after his divorce from wife Claire Merry. And the Frenchman says being played out wide by Barca boss Frank Rijkaard has been a huge problem. Henry, 30, said: “As you all know I’ve got some personal problems and my daughter is the most important thing in my life. “I’m not happy because a father that only sees his daughter five times in the last eight months cannot be. If you know what it is to have a daughter then you can imagine what it is like.” Henry, who has hit seven goals in 19 league games, added: “I played for eight years in a team in a specific position and now I’m at another club in another position with a different tactical system. “It’s time to stop comparing the Barcelona Henry with the Arsenal Henry. “I’m not asking for anything from the coach, nor am I complaining about playing on the left. I respect the coach’s decisions.”

Was gonna post sutting bout him yesterday..Pires said Henry hates it and doesnt think he should ever be subbed because he wasnt subbed at Arsenal.But at Arsenal he was there main star that everyone looked to but Barca have 10+ players to look to...Seems like he regrets going but he mustve known he wouldnt start all the time like he did at Arsenal with Eto 'o and messi and ronaldino and bojan.But come summer time and he was available again for a cut price would you Arsenal man actually want him back?

[Guest Mickey Kane]

Well, he's a NEEK for thinking he'd go to Barcelona of all places, start as a CENTRE FORWARD and matter of fact, be sure of even a starting place....Really, do players actually examine the actual team they go to before their move?

Nowadays it seems like there agents and bank account's thinks for them...

[Lenny]

Surely Henry wasnt thinking he would be main man at barca AND play most of the games AS center forward.Any one of us lot could have told him that

[darkman]

Saih he would struggle in a team that doesnt play for him

[Davicious X]

Not to bait myself up too much but when I use Barcelona on Pes i tend to put him on the left and move Ronaldinho to the attackin midfield position.Simple talk really!

Wen i use Barca Henry doesnt make the starting 11 unless im in da mood for a high scoring game and put 2upfront with 2 supporting wingers....

[TF S4DK]

Of course he thought he would be the main striker in the middle cos he thinks he's better than Eto'o & cos Barcelona bought, chased & wanted him for years.

The 3 centre midfielders in the middle consist of 1 defensive midfielder & 2 central midfielders with one usually playing a slightly more advanced role.You're talking about playing Ronaldinho in what would be the hold behing the striker which would be tactical suicide for Rijkaard...

[n/a]

he got a reality checkhe was very very privilidged at arsenal in all senses

c/s.If you're Henry, you WANT to go to Barcelona to be the main man, you have the ability you want to go and show yourself to be the best in the world.Good players don't doubt themselves....In his opinion, rightly or wrongly (rightly in mine) he should be starting every week cf.

[XcalibA]

its true he was treated and seen as a god at arsenalbut now hes just part of a squad which has alot of competition for his placeplus play a different way system and hes in a different league plus mans hit 30so boy its gonna always be aloy harder for him from time he said he was leavin

[MrJibbles]

A lot of us knew he would be going from the main man to just another player.It's also another problem with having so many big stars in your side. Messi can't be ignored and must start every game (injured right now), Eto'o adds a passion and drive up top, he gets goals out of nothing, Ronaldinho well we just don't know anymore.

Henry: Grass isn't greener.

i remember making a topic on rwd saying if henry went to barca who would be the main man after a season these times i was sending on a sly for henry and arsenal fans who though he was better then dinhodinho is in shocking form, etoo aswell to an extent and henry is nowhere near the main man at barca*smug mode*

Wait, how long ago was this, because it COULDN'T have been the 2005/2006 season when Eto'o & Ronaldinho were badding it up differently....

[Doom]

had a absolute stinker today, barca drew 2-2 with almeria

[M.Dot]

i remember making a topic on rwd saying if henry went to barca who would be the main man after a season these times i was sending on a sly for henry and arsenal fans who though he was better then dinho

For some reason I remember that.

[RVP]

all i know is the only person to leave arsenal to go on and win things with another club is viera and in that time hes only been abit time player they all leave arsenal think they can go on and do better and all flop

[M.Dot]

You're forgetting Ashley Cole.

[RVP]

i should of re phrased it i mean go on to win more than they did with arsenal

[Doom]

van bronckhorst has done well at barca, lets not forget

[darkman]

He was on the bench yesterday, even with Messi and Ronaldinho not playingPISSED.
