Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has asked the team to focus in their upcoming game against AC Milan, as it is going to be a highly competitive game and is also going to be Thierry Henry’s last game for the Gunners.
Henry was expected to extend his loan deal with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 till the end of the month, but the striker is now set to leave the club before the weekend.
As a result, Henry will be heading into his final game as a Gunner, when he takes on AC Milan this coming Wednesday night.
Wenger admits that emotions will be at an all time high in the game, but he wants his squad to focus and try and make the occasion a whole lot more memorable.
The manager is quoted to have said: “For me, first I hope it will be a positive emotion [on Wednesday]. But what is important is that we focus on the night because it is a massive game for us. Let's hope we have positive emotions there.”
The Frenchman then went on to elaborate and explain how he has a special relationship with Henry over the years, as the way they kept linking up was quite extraordinary.
The Gunners boss then concluded by adding: “Everybody is different. Let's say with Thierry that I made him start in Monaco when he was 17.”
“Then I brought him to Arsenal, then he went to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 and then I brought him back to Arsenal so it is a little bit a three-times story, three chapters in the book.”
“I think the history we have had together is special because you do not [usually] meet the same player three times.”
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Thierry-Henry-c34918 linked up with the Gunners squad once again at the start of the year and since then, he has been playing with the North London club.
During his brief spell with the team, the striker went on to score two match winners and scored the last goal in a seven goals to one demolition of Blackburn http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rovers-c40385.
