      We haven’t had strikers who could do what Henry does - he was literally the best player in the world at the time (or there abouts) for a few years with us… Sure RVP or Auba may have hit the scoring numbers but they wouldn’t have gotten the assist numbers

        There should almost be a mandatory video of Henry to watch before comparing someone else to him. Literally all you have to do is watch some old game footage to see there’s not been another Henry before, or after Henry. The man was on a level all his own. Like a custom character in FIFA. I’ve seen other players come close but, I’ve never seen another player that could just willingly shift into overdrive anytime they wanted, in the blink of an eye against any opposition.

        The only athlete I’ve seen that I’d dare compare to him doesn’t even play football, and they’re well past it now themselves (LBJ).
