THIERRY HENRYA lot of different races and nationalities play football, so it is a good way to try and stop racism.
THIERRY HENRYI can’t understand why Scholes has never won the player of the year award. He should have won it long ago. Maybe it’s because he doesn’t seek the limelight like some of the other ‘stars’.
THIERRY HENRYI eat football, I sleep football. I am not mad I am just passionate.
THIERRY HENRYI only deal in what is real. To be honest, I’ve never thought about what I could get out of football or where it would take me. I just wanted to play. I’m the same now.

THIERRY HENRYPeople are talking about me more than they talk about Eastenders.
THIERRY HENRYSo many people say that obviously my game has changed since I arrived here and I say that it’s good that it changed, otherwise it would show a lack of intelligence.
THIERRY HENRYBecause that’s just the way it is, and don’t sleep on what you did before, you know, because it can not hurt you, but you can find yourself sleeping on something that happened in the past, but you dare to progress and there is always room for progression.
