http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Thierry-Henry-c34918, The New York Red Bulls forward who is on loan at Arsenal, is seemingly doubtful to face off against Manchester United this coming weekend, following a calf injury which he picked up in training.
The striker was reportedly in mint condition, but managed to strain his calf in a training session. Such an injury would have not been considered to be so significant, but given the player’s age, he is a massive doubt for the upcoming game. At the same time, the fact that he is on loan from the Red Bulls, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 can’t risk aggravating his injury any further.
The Frenchman is reported to have picked up this knock on Tuesday and is now waiting for the results of his scans, in order for the extent of his injury to be determined. However, the way things are shaping up, he is more than likely to miss out on the game.
Henry is more than likely battling to overcome his injury, since he has a history or producing brilliant performances against the Red Devils.
The Gunners legend is also spurred on to play as many games as he possibly can, because of the fact that he wants to help get the club that he loves into a Champions League spot.
Should Henry fail to be fit in time for the game, then Arsene Wenger is going to have another massive dilemma on his hands.
Wenger is believed to have considered starting Henry for the game against United, in order to utilize the striker’s experience and abilities in front of goal.
However, he may now have to resort to using just http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Park-Chu-Young-c29137 the chance to prove himself in the game.
With http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marouane-Chamakh-c24294 also deemed ineligible for the game, due to his participation in the African Cup of Nations, the North London club seem to be running a little low on strikers.
Nonetheless, it is still impossible to determine if Henry is going to be able to play in the game or not, since it is going to be a wait till the very last minute to see just how the player is holding up on his fitness.
