Thierry Henry's Top 10 Arsenal Goals










Credit; here


Thierry Henry has been a frequent visitor to the Emirates and Arsenal games of late, and to celebrate his return as a spectator, here's a video entry on the Frenchman's top 10 goals during his spell in England.

First, here comes a few entries to get those taste buds tingling.

If ever there was a player to bank on, it was Thierry Henry and goals like this often gave the Gunners a route back into games.


This, against Birmingham and is a great finish, but with it being his 200th goal for Arsenal, it was always going to deserve its place amongst his top goals.


We start with number 10, and this comes against Charlton Athletic, but this was one of Henry's better strikes from distance.



His strikes weren't limited to the Premier League, however, and this, number 9, came against Real Madrid to give Arsenal a vital away goal.



It's not all about technique, sometimes it's best to be one step ahead of everyone else and Henry is, yet again, when he dances around Carlo Cudicini to score this for number 8.


And Real Madrid weren't the only European side who couldn't cope with his pace. Inter Milan were on the wrong end of this counter attack from Arsene Wenger's side.


It didn't matter who Arsenal were playing, and this might not be the same quality opposition as Real Madrid, Inter Milan or Chelsea, but it's still a fantastic individual piece of skill which slots in at number 6.



Number five comes against Henry's favourite team, Liverpool, who appear again in a few videos time, and this gave them a 3-2 lead minutes after going behind 2-1. Henry takes it upon himself to score the goal, and some goal it is.



This next clip, number 4, might not have commentary from Ewood Park, but a lack of able defending led to this superb breakaway from Cesc Fabregas and Mr va va voom himself.



Sometimes you're better off lucky than good, but this piece of improvisation, again against Charlton, from the number 14 wins a well deserved place as number 3.


Number 2 comes from Liverpool's FA Cup tie with Arsenal and it's Thierry Henry doing what Thierry Henry did best for the Gunners, scoring a magnificent goal.



This, number 1, has to be the best goal Henry ever scored for the Londoners and it's probably one of the best the Premier League has ever seen. Apologies about the poor quality video, but replays show exactly what he pulled off.



Did Thierry Henry agree with the choices?

Well he spoke out after his Arsenal career came to an end, so what were his favourite 3 goals?
