STEVE BRUCE has hailed Arsenal striker Thierry Henry as the best player in
the world.
And the Birmingham boss admitted: ³Some people say he¹s not a prolific
goalscorer. But if 32 goals in two seasons isn¹t prolific, I don¹t know what
is.
³Throw in all his Oassists¹, the fact he plays week-in, week-out and that
the rest of us are for ever going OBloody hell, not Henry again¹ and I would
have to vote him the world¹s best at the moment.²
Arsene Wenger¹s table-topping Gunners arrive at St Andrew¹s today minus the
FOUR stars banned for their part in September¹s Battle of Old Trafford.
But while Bruce admits the suspensions of Patrick Vieira, Martin Keown, Ray
Parlour and Lauren can only aid his side¹s cause, he would rather they all
be available in return for Henry being absent.
Bruce added: ³He¹s a fantastic talent and the complete footballer < probably
the most coveted in the Premiership.
³It¹s a privilege for the rest of us to be on the same field.
³If anyone could afford him maybe it¹s our owners David Sullivan and David
Gold and, whatever it cost, I¹m sure he would repay it.
³If I could have anything I wanted for Christmas, I¹d take Thierry Henry.²
