These are the best Thierry Henry jokes cracked in response to the Arsenal legend’s weird self-analysis in Sky Sports’s build-up to the Gunners’ 2-1 win over Man City.
In a discussion about Man Utd’s attacking woes, Henry took centre stage to present a comprehensive visual comparison of how the Red Devils attacked against Norwich and how he himself used to attack at Barcelona alongside Lionel Messi and Samuel Eto’o.
Using the demonstration as a visual illustration of how each side set up similarly up until the final third, the Frenchman kept repeating “this is me” and “freedom” like the new-found catchphrases they might just turn out to be.
While fans of the man were left impressed by the apparent detail, others were left confused and took to sharing their Thierry Henry jokes…
Replacing Gary Neville with Thierry Henry as a pundit is like replacing Thierry Henry with Gary Neville as a striker

I used to think Thierry Henry was a smooth talking punditry genius. I was young, and naive. #ARSMCI

Thierry Henry commenting on the Barcelona footage literally sending me to sleep with nightmares. He almost makes Carragher look good

Going from G Neville to Thierry Henry on #MNF. Like being dumped by Mila Kunis and rebounding onto… some boring, French, handballing tart.

Thoroughly enjoying Thierry Henry waiting for Jamie Carragher to give an opinion then agreeing with it.

Thierry Henry is about as useful as a ashtray on a motorbike. #MNF

The question is, how will Thierry Henry link De Bruyne kicking the corner flag back to his Barcelona days?
