Goodbye and thanks to Thierry Henry

I've been following Thierry Henry at Arsenal for so long that I have forgotten when it all started. But what I can remember are many of the wonderful skills and beautiful goals which Henry displayed and left millions around the world in awe. While i am definitely sad about Henry leaving Arsenal and the Premiership, I also feel that he has already stayed one season longer as he could have left after last season's Champion's League final. I think he would have stayed on for the rest of his career if not for the David Dein incident and Arsenal's lack of competitiveness in the 2006/2007 season. Whatever the case, I am truly thankful of the goals, assists, efforts and inspirations which Henry provided during his 8 years at Arsenal. He is not only a marvellous footballer but also an honorable human who has conducted himself with dignity in most times on and off the field. I hope Arsenal fans can be understanding and not blame him for leaving as he has been a loyal servant to the club and given the chance, he will love to win the European Cup with the Gunners. While such a dream will probably not materialise, no one should ever doubt his commitment to Arsenal as well as his desire to succeed with the club. I wish Henry all the best in his new club and hopefully he can finally win the only trophy he hasn't won so far which is the European Cup. Lastly, just want to say that i am truly grateful to be able to witness a true footballing legend playing on a football field live through television. Goodbye Henry and thanks for the memories.
