Wojciech Szczesny has been enjoying the chance to face up to Gunners legend Thierry Henry in training, stating that the former captain still is a ‘great finisher’ and has hailed his intelligence.
Although Henry’s two-month loan has been officially confirmed, he is still training with the first team and has been keeping Szczesny busy between the posts.
Szczesny told Arsenal Player:
He’s quality, he’s still a great finisher and he’s very clever, he’s very intelligent.
As well as that he’s a great figure to have in the dressing room. He helps all the young players off the pitch as well as on the pitch.
It’s good to have him there and hopefully everything will be confirmed and done as soon as possible because we need him.
Henry’s return will be welcomed by all and will provide some necessary fire power to the frontline as Gervinho has left for the Africans Nations Cup.
Personally I can’t wait to see the Frenchman lineup with Van Persie if Wenger decides to revert to a 4 4 2 formation. Or even allowing Van Persie to rest and having a more than able replacement in Henry.
