Thierry Henry

He's been better since the new year but still doesn't warrant a starting place. The threat down our left is pretty minimal with him on, Bojan and Pedro deserve a run.

But i think pep will keep on going with old Henry instead of Bojan and Pedro

1.The best is oftentimes the enemy of the good.
2. Enough is as good as feast.
3. If it ain't broke don't fix it.
4. Don't mess with success.
5. You may go farther and fare worse.
6. Leave well enough alone.
7. When fortune smiles do not further seek to better your lot.

Choose whatever saying u like best :lol:

2 goals since last May, I think it is already broken :))
Well, he was kind of broken before, but kind of fixed now :p
To be honest chances of him starting to score at least every fourth match are very small.
But what is expected from him is a great contribution to the team by means of passing, goal assissting, fighting, defenders' marking.
Actually, right now he tries to be a good contributor, moves a lot ... but the benefit isn't that tangible. He never was a perfect dribbler - usually tricked one & very rarely two players & immediatelly targeted the goalkeeper's opposite corner (which he did just brilliantly). But recently he is having good stamina but completely lacks of speed. At least not enough for La Liga level. He is not so old so it appears to be the lack of super motivation. Cause such a team requires a huge motivation to progress.
PS. Everything the above-said is IMHO.

I read in the newspaper than Henry said that Pedro deserves to play before him and he would understand if he's benched because Pedro has been playing amazingly good lately. Dunno how credible is that.

Nice vid.

The reason why barca score lots more goals from the right than from the left isn't Henry ;)
There are many reasons about it.
And even without scoring, haven't you noticed that many goals on the right start on the left ? Barca play on the left, the defense of the other team come on the left, then they change it quicly, and there is a goal from the right.

Cruyff defends Henry, Zlatan

Barcelona legend Johan Cruyff has defended strikers Thierry Henry and Zlatan Ibrahimovic over their lack of goals for the club this season.

Henry has struggled to find the net with only two goals to his name while Ibrahimovic has scored just once in his last seven games.

Although Barcelona are still leading the La Liga table, many are worried about the contributions from the Frenchman and the Swede in the goal department.

Cruyff has called for calm and urged the critics not to judge the strikers by the number of goals scored.

"Happiness is never complete [at Barcelona]. There's always someone pointing the finger. If you play up front and don't score you have to live with it but judging them by their goals alone is as easy as it is incorrect," he is quoted as saying by Sport.

"Who can occupy defences more? Their movement, on and off the ball, creates a great advantage of an unknown value."

Cruyff said it all.
