Has decided to stay at Arsenal - 4 year contract.
Now im not an Arsenal fan, my team isnt in the premiership 
But i think this is excellent for English football, the he calls London "home" will obviously help clubs to attract the best possible talent to argueably the best football league in the world.
I think its a credit to see loyalty still exists when he could have quit easily swapped it for the raz matas at Barca.
I wish Henry many more successful years at Arsenal, and thank you for entertaining me for years to come 
Top man

Great news for English football. Henry will now be going on my 'football needs more players like these' list, which consists of...
Alan Shearer - Turned down the big money move to Man Utd to play for his favourite club.
Steven Gerrard - Turned down Chelsea, and will go down as a Liverpool ledgend.
Henry.
These players are/were very good for the sport

Yeah apperantley Wegner has a big budget to stregthen the team.
Think its a credit to Wegner as well, managing to hold on to him when so many people thought he was leaving.

Arsenal will win the league next season, Chelsea's squad has become to unbalanced and unhappy.

Who do you think Wenger will target with his budget! With Pires possibly off and Bergkamp retiring, do you think he should replace these two?
Will he look to buy a defender?
Discuss!

Pires will stay if Henry stays, doesn't need defenders needs a goal scoring midfielder, someone like Magilton.

I think he will look for another winger. Someone with the Arsenal style of play i.e. quick, adjile. Someone like SWP. He would be a very good signing but obviously that would never happen as Arsenal would not pay the inflated price that Chelsea would ask.
I don't think we need to look for defenders to be honest. May 1 at very most. You have to remember this was the worst season for a defence I have known. Toure is the only one who did not get injured, to go through 8 left backs is just silly.
Once all fit then we will once again have 3-4 good backups. I would be more than happy to fall back to Cliche/Senderos/Eboue.
Strikers it depends on how Wenger wants to play walcot. I think he will probably want to get another one but the problem comes in that do you go for a top strike partner or just someone to fill in. I would be very interested to see how Walcott and Henry could play together. That leaves RVP in reserves but no backup if there are injuries.

Having asked to discuss possible transfer targets and my excitement that Henry could be about to stay, I forgot that we had Adebayoor and Walcott with Van Persie too that makes 4 good forwards. Though I think maybe he will buy another striker and use Walcott bit part to build his experiance. Though I could be wrong.
Just imagine Henry and Walcott upfront. If it's true that Walcott is faster than Henry then
