Your having a laugh?!! Henry still has atleast 3, maybe 4 good years in him yet. Now IMO those 4 seasons make him worth more than Bent for the rest of his life!!

I would have put money on Henry scoring more goals than Bent over the next 5 seasons, probably more than Bent will score in his whole career. More overpriced overrated English talent.
Im upset we didnt get atleast £20m for him, who are we going replace him with for £16m ffs

I think that Wenger wouldnt sell someone without having a replacement already as good as lined up.
i seriously read the other day that Obefemi Martins has a £13m clause in his contract and that if Henry went, Arsenal would look to trigger said clause.

I also think that should Wenger Leave, maybe a new manager wouldnt be such a bad thing 
Wenger is too stubborn in his ways sometimes, I.E. not spending big, insisting on sticking with youth etc....
We'll see. Every team has its ups and downs.

I can't believe it!
So much for all my posts saying Arsenal would be strong contenders for the title next season!

I am actually liking the fact he has gone. I dont like the fact that we rely on him and him only.
Time to move on, build a new team and forget about.

no no this is a massive blow for us! not just cos henry was amazing which he was. but when people thought Arsenal they think Henry... and for marketing and money making etc, 16m is gonna be a big loss he is worth alot more IMHO, all of our play and tactics were based around henrys speed and ability... there is no-one i can think of in the world as good a player as him, and if this does go through im absolutely gutted. his last season was off i know... but i was hoping he would be fresh and willing to give all into arsenal for this season. 
i have a bad feeling about this season...

When Arsenal moved into the Emirates this is exactly the sort of thing I imagined. They need some major investment now to catch up with the top 3 IMO. Either that or they'll be caught by the likes of Spurs, maybe Newcastle under big Sam etc.
