Henry has lost it

[j.o.s.h.1408]

Has anybody read the news in regards to the ex arsenal player called Thierry Henry?

basicly not only only has he abandoned the arsenal kids, he has now abandoned his own wife and child

He hasnt kicked a ball yet for barca and his life is already falling apart. There is a saying in arsenal that when you leave arsenal, your career goes down hill after that.

here is the full article from the sun(Trust me this is true its in various newspapers)

SOCCER ace Thierry Henry has told pals he quit Arsenal for Barcelona to get away from “everything English — including my wife”.

Henry, 29, walked out on Croydon-born model Claire, 27, days after joining the Spanish giants last month. The pair, who have a two-year-old girl, will divorce, The Sun can reveal.

And Henry is living the single life following his move to Barcelona — and his bitter marriage break-up.

Pals say he has been lapping up the wild bachelor lifestyle — partying and visiting casinos every night on a recent five-day trip to Paris.

The ex-Arsenal captain was pictured cuddling up to two girls at a concert by rapper 50 Cent in the French capital last week. There was no sign of his wedding ring as he attended the marriage in the city of Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria and basketball’s Tony Parker.

Last night Henry, 29, confirmed his four-year marriage to English model Claire — mum to his two-year-old daughter Téa — is over.

A statement through his lawyers said: “Thierry is extremely saddened by the breakdown of his marriage.

“He is anxious to move on with his life and maintain the best possible relationship he can with Claire for the benefit of their daughter Téa, whom he loves very much.”

The statement added that the star’s move to Barcelona was “entirely for footballing reasons”. But, in a break with tradition in such matters, it did NOT state that no one else was involved in the break-up.

Celebrities are usually keen to stress that the split was not caused by adultery.

Earlier Henry told pals he quit London club Arsenal for Spanish giants Barca to get away from “everything English — including my wife”.

He walked out on Claire, 27, and Téa just days after the move last month. It followed a series of rows and he has not been back since.

Henry, whose lightning feet shot him to fame as the Gunners’ all-time leading goal- scorer, told chums: “I didn’t really want to leave Arsenal — they’re my favourite club and I loved playing for them.

“But lots of things have changed recently and I had to get away from everything English, including my wife unfortunately.

“It’s a very sad time for all of us, but you’ve got to know when to move on.”

The France international spoke at Eva’s wedding, where he arrived without Claire — also known by her modelling name of Nicole Merry, and who starred with him in his famed Va Va Voom TV car ads.

Henry stayed alone in a Paris hotel for five days and was spotted out partying and visiting casinos every night.

His pal said: “Thierry was acting like a single man, letting his hair down with the boys. Everyone realised something must be wrong.

“There was no sign of Nicole — even though she was a great friend of both Eva and Tony. It was late at night when he told us about wanting to leave England for personal reasons.

“We were all very sad because we love Thierry and Nicole. They were a wonderful couple.” The last straw between the pair is said to have been secret texts and pictures found by Claire on the footballer’s mobile phone.

But they are only part of the problem and the striker’s gallic temperament is believed to have triggered the split.

Another friend of the couple revealed: “Thierry is very opinionated, headstrong and very much his own man.

“He would probably admit himself that he can be a nightmare to live with.

“He may have walked out, but Claire wasn’t running after him pleading with him to come back. A divorce is inevitable. It’s just a tragedy that a child is involved.” It is also understood that while Henry was keen to leave England for Spain, Croydon-born Claire preferred to remain close to her family.

Henry stormed out of the luxury family spread in Hampstead, North London, two weeks ago. He is spending most of his time around Barcelona, where he is set to pocket £128,000 a week.

One of the couple’s last public appearances together was at the French Open tennis championship last month.

But while Claire looked delighted to be there, sports fan Henry looked out of sorts. He and Claire had been dating in secret when he asked for her to be hired as his co- star in the Renault Clio ads.

They tied the knot in July 2003 at Highclere Castle, Berks, in a £40,000 extravaganza in front of 200 guests.

Henry comes from a broken home. Mum Maryles is divorced from his dad Antoine.

Darren Dein — Henry’s adviser and best man at his wedding — said last night: “To be honest, we don’t really comment on these things.”

Well Henry has diffinetly shown his true colours as a person and hope his career goes down the drain in barca

not bitter at all then?

Divorce is usually never one sided, its not like hundreds of other people haven't got divorced, the context of he's left arsenal i hope he goes and rots is an appalling attitude.

He's a football player, he's entitled to move, its called freedom of work, its like saying you can't ever move job. 17K for the rest of your life

Get over it Josh, its a football player moving, its not like its never happened before.

best player in the world until he leaves typical. Reminds me of the United fans who slagged Tevez, until they heard of the transfer and suddenly now he is the best player since sliced bread.

His career won't go downhill in BARCA he will be playing for a club in which he will be able to show his true colours and not being held back.

[j.o.s.h.1408]

arsenal fans will be loving this mate. say what you want tig but when you commit to your club a year ago and goes when the going gets tough, in my books his a traitor, end of.

You say that he was held back at arsenal? LOL do you even follow football? Henry had the best years in arsenal, he will never play has good as he did in arsenal. he wont even be top scorer for barca. eto, ronaldinho and messi will outshine henry easily. your forgetting that henry is getting old too

Name me some arsenal players who have done better at there new clubs after quitting from arsenal.

edit: tig you just shown an "appalling attitude" towards me by stating that "17k a life". who are you? henry's fan boy?

Yeah! I hope his feet AND his face fall off too, because his time at Arsenal was pointless and I think I'm correct in saying he didn't score a single goal in the 8 years he was with us (I'll have to look that up)

Per day, mind....

No J.O.S.H

your just bitter, typical fan who can only see his teams colours hence the reference to United. Arsenal are the United of the south. Would you slag Mr Burns if he left?

[MadduckUK]

(F365 forum) - I will definitely be your husband next season

that made me laugh

[Splash]

J.O.S.H - your posts smack of sour grapes to me. I'm a Celtic fan and wished Henrik Larsson all the best when he moved on - he gave us 7 great years and just about all the fanbase were grateful of them, rather than whining that he'd moved on to Barca.

Get over it. You know Take That split up, dontcha?

if thats what you call then yeah im bitter but some of my points are still valid regardless. some of you think he will play better at barca than in arsenal. That shows the lack of footballing knowledge some of you have.

Can you honestly say henry will score 40+ goals for barca? i think not mate cuz when he was at arsenal he score 30+ in almost every season. Now you people think he will do better? LOL please man, he wont even equal that record

No Josh, the point i'm making is that i hate completely blinkered attitudes, yes I do get high and mighty when i see people saying stuff that is quoted from things like the Sun. Its sensationalist drivel.

Henry made Arsenal great, it turned a pretty damn ordinary squad into something much better than it was, and its the way you post that you want him to fail because he left your football team.

Owww diddums

No, but that's because there'll be a lot more competition for him at Barca - other people also trying to score goals...
