How everyone talked about Thierry Henry in 2003

so thank goodness for tiar onri if you've got him in your side and he's playing as he is at the moment you don't really sweat too much do you I I've run out superlatives for this guy he is just phenomenal he really is the best in the world by a mile for me at the moment this is scary early this that that turn there oh goodness man I mean if feel sorry for Lucas rabby I mean that is the burning Pace that he has that hry and that is actually a careless pass for him because he's normally so good at that and this is just sums him up I think everything about them great ball from Cano and there's hry he's like a laxative he's straight through you and you're absolutely powerless to do anything about it and everyone standing around what the hell was that [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] Arsenal awoke well actually ton re flicked his own turbo Switch dragging his team along in the slipstream for 15 minutes ay ran the game Alan kishle saw it he asked his players to double up but when Scotty Parker overdid the aggression ay could take Aim again the perfect free kick from Arsenal's top scorer he is an absolute oneman attack isn't he his 24th Champions League goal two at einhoven one at Dortmund two in Rome tiar onri is propelling Arsenal through the phases of the Champions League The Defenders the defender slow to react but certainly this lad reacts like lightning there it is tiar onri it's a hattick a brilliant champions league hattick for tiar HRI you begin to wonder if there's anything this fell can't do I mean that is a phenomenal freaking a pace curl oh he flipped it right into the top area Berto leaving Lucas behind glorious ball through HRI going for the hattick is there anybody better in World football right now than tiar hry 40 T from pz H's charging through oh surely not HRI it's unbelievable I've seen most things in this league in the last 25 years I haven't seen anything like him they've got the most effective forward that there's been in British football as long as I can remember now David ple has seen probably more players than anybody else in this country so when he comes out and says that TI H is the most effective forward he has ever seen I think it's difficult to argue with David when you see uh HRI as he was against leads um the other night almost running past International Defenders as though they're not there you know a little bit like the the kid in the playground the center forward in the playground who runs past everyone and scores goals hry is doing this in the premier at just an unbelievable level it is another memorable goal from tier ory no occasion is too big for him six times he has scored against Manchester United in their last four premier to hyri not quite as spectacular as his volid winner here three seasons ago but a shot struck with slow motion does not do justice to the sheer power and surprise of hre's effort and again he is the man who's broken the deadlock going to take something very special wasn't it to break the deadlock in this one well aser described it a missile and that's a perfect description what a strike of the ball it was and we've seen him do it before so often this season now what how long it takes before it flashes past Roy Carroll he is literally a second that traveled 30 yards that ball was literally motor past him had no time to react in the back of the M you're the Barkley C man of the match unsurprisingly congratulations thanks a lot thank you absolutely Top Class different class to hry I'm speechless I can't that performance was one of the best I've seen he's just he's a he's a phenomenon he's unbelievable I mean do we do we accept now har that the guy is Unstoppable do do you plan to play against him you can't do nothing with him he's got to be the best player in the world at the moment there can't be anybody playing better than him you know I know zidan's a fantastic talent but this Fell's he's frightening he's ahead of the ball everything's ahead of the ball except his right foot I mean how how can he do that he's just everything he just unbelievable is you can't you can't there's not enough ways to describe the performance that he puts on week in week out Z headed off in pursuit of History how they saluted the second fastest man to a Premiership Century only Alan Shir got there quicker the only difference was AI a galloping one-man show goal 101 might have been the best of the lot only AI proved human at the Finish meanwhile whatever the wish list at Real Madrid Arsenal's galactico Centurion is is going nowhere every game you know you can guarantee he's going to put on a show score a goal make a brilliant pass skill but when you see him in the corner against Danny Mills when Danny Mills winded him up and you just saw him skin him in the corner that was just class well let's start with once again man of the match tyon re again we saw why as um was rightly said by Gabriel possibly the the best player single player in Europe at the moment that he's can go against Defenders he can go either way got great balance and when he puts a turbo one I mean this skills outrageous to be honest creates an opportunity for Perez uh when he when he blasts down the line as he does here for for Jeff's first goal you just can't stop him great all around team player looks a great fell to play with and as I say when Once he's going into these areas is Unstoppable the fras a knife through butter Springs very much again here watch you watch are the Char Defenders you think they're getting close and it's almost like he's got another gear to go through you know people just back off him you don't know which way he's going to go and as you say he's um you know he looks so smooth is there anything you can do against a player like that when he's in that sort of form you time punch him and knock out I think I don't think you could do much else this is Terry hry this is the first goal look at the ball is actually at the top left hand corner of your screen with Stephan Frey it's a throw into Tottenham they're applying the pressure they've got men on the edge of the area anchoring the box they've got players behind the ball marking hry and Burk Hamp and Steven car in at the bottom of the screen there by the halfway line everything looks set there to attack now this is Arsenal for you they'll break on you so quickly now once tiar hry has got the other side of Ed Steven Carl's got the worst job in football right now he's got the the quickest player in the league going to be bearing down on him very very quickly and he's got a decision to make does he go and confront hry or does he back off towards his own goal he takes the latter option to try and buy some time but the rest of the Tottenham players they just can't catch up they can't get him he's too quick I think Steven khah now is in a position maybe to force tier hry toward bvit there at the left back he doesn't do that and again hry keeps the ball and actually You've Got to Now give the Arsenal player so much credit because he wled past two or three players here and look at it this is a ground ground level I mean watch him go there is no catch him as for man of the match once again tiar hre well what more could you say a 100 goals for Arsenal now and to think he used to be a Winger first time I saw him was for Monaco playing as a Winger St James's Park he got the winner in UA for cup tight and I remember thinking that night wouldn't like to come up against that I mean you just can't live with that kind of acceleration and Pace but to go it there's also wonderful technique wonderful balance and especially with the wilt TOs and the pz's around them there's almost now he's up moving before the ball is even played to him and it's so so hard the thing about him is how do you play against him because if you get tight which is probably a good thing you would think he'll burn you off and turn if he plays you one over the top he turns you you have no chance but if you give him two or three yards and he can turn and run at you that's probably worse so I I don't know what you do against him do you play a sweeper or what do you do kick him that's right well yeah break his leg which is what people I gu catch him when you've got pace and intelligence I think that's the perfect marriage and also as you said with pz HRI is a team player he's not he's not the selfish Striker that perhaps some Strikers need to be probably the one weak he doesn't score too many headers though so maybe that's the thing ha doesn't tap yeah in simple goal he very weak and head doesn't tap ter hre I mean he's his movement the way he he works the whole width of the field and he scores goals as well but I I can't ever recall there's ever seen a striker that makes as many chances for other front players as this fellow does I mean this is the goal look at it he pulls around the shoulder great diagonal ball to him settles I thought he was going to isolate the defender and get out of him here but he dwells dwells but y b doesn't take a good covering position but ball to Perfection loosy catching up easy across the face they're looking for offside but that is clinical and he he roams he rages he goes on both sides of the field and there's Vie there's the big man dinks it over the top and he knows that the pace Defender thinks got a chance the turbo goes on there look at that for a surge that is an unbelievable surge he LS the defender thinking he's got it and surges just can't set up a a little chance I love this little Cameo takes it in the corner boxed in little trick maybe grab Solano shirt a little bit here we go Bo boom little lollipop does the fell rolls it across the face but have a look at this this is about movement this is about tremendous movement no Defender can pick him up pz has run the ball 30 40 yards times his ball his pass he gets intercepted bit of luck here but he's played straight back into his path but the movement that got him there was terrific finishing once again death could have been that little bit more CL but you're looking at a player as I say um that we talked about great Strikers last week we're talking about another one this week but a different type of one one that sets up a lot of chances for the players in the team I think cheran today is someone you have to go and watch Nobody Does it sometimes I wish something called super slowmo haven't we I I think we need super fast Mo or something speed cam to follow this guy it's incredible extraordinary and you're also talking against some of the best defenders around you know when he picks it up doesn't look a lot on just Inn out top players there top we weav and carving out a chance like that I mean that's that's fantastic to watch but that was again after they' scored they were starting to run right the quality the play The Movement yeah this is the one for me just he picks up no danger whatsoever 10 yards inside his own half back to goal and the minut is there anybody better than him anywhere um I think there's no look there's nobody quicker than him and uh running at the ball and the M he's in tonight you know he he's a threat first of all he a first is a is a team game but without Cherry uh it could be more difficult and I think this year was tremendous like the last two games where we was little bit tired but we needed someone to do something special and uh CH always perform on on the big games so uh no doubt about he going to win the play of the Year tonight and uh he was tremendous and fantastic H to player I paid him I paid him set here's Savage a can set off from these sort of positions and leave team's trailing in his W but he goes for bird Camp when he's running at PACE he can pick out the perfect pass and um that's not uh easy to do but there's there's so much more to his game isn't it I mean I love this I love him having the ball I mean for me he could run on snow and not even Den it is that light look at him footworks tremendous and there he's looking he's always aware dominating brings people into play he I think he could play in any position on the football field this fell look at him there this is what he does well for a top Striker teases Defenders can't tackle and he's always looking to set up a mate vintage this is vintage he did this so many times that night in the Sano and here he is again accelerates leaves Loos for dead tucks it away that for me if there's a better Striker or a better player in the world I don't know he is really pleasing on the eye if you're not a bonium city supporter remember when they signed him they said he wasn't really a striker 100 goals and 81 games magnificent King HRI if there's a better player in the world at the minute than HRI then uh I'm yet to see it because he has he's if you just leave him one V one or he just gets the space and he gets turned around at you he's devastating at the minute and uh and he's certainly punished us against today how do you deal with that kind of raw Pace that tiar or re brings to their attack good question um it's difficult to deal with I think you know you can't drop off too much and let him get ahead of steam um if you can try and nip the problem in the bud as soon as you can and maybe get a challenge in early um but it's a tough you know he's got such good feet Pace that you know you really have to have your wits about it's not that difficult to pull out a best Off compilation on H re but the the picture speak themselves almost Al well the as stoning figure for me is not really his goals it's his assists as well I mean for for for a tremendous goal score he scores all sorts of goals that's a wonder I mean how do you play and SC we AR on this show seemingly every Monday if you're a Defender how do he play against him M if he got a few tappings God knows him he'd score cuz he he rely gets them there are a few finer sits in football than tier hre and full flow I think we're very very lucky to have on this country not only as a credit to his profession but he's absolutely brilliant to watch so difficult to play against he comes in repeatedly in this left hand side this is his favorite position picks it up here how many times have we seen this cut inside go to hit go past the first one pass the second one and then ping into the back of the net very similar to last one's goal of the month oh unbelievably good I mean this is his great forth to coming that side taking on the Defenders he's just got such a great appreciation of everything run about him righty's record is under threat well right righty's got the goals quicker but tiry HRI you know not only is a goal scorer he's brilliant in the Builder I mean right is's a bit like you just a predator nothing outside the box where where hry is the buildup as well
