Thierry Henry’s words are confident and cocky enough to write off their next opponents even before the game starts. Thierry Henry, the prized striker of Arsenal, says he’s back and fit for their weekend encounter with Sheffield United and assures their fans they will score early into the game. After scoring a number of goals, they will use the width of the field to play them the rest of the time.

Is Arsenal capable of winning against Sheffield? That’s definitely an insult, Sheffield belong to the lower ranks of the premiership while Arsenal have a superb team who just beaten the crap out of Manchester United even without Thierry Henry playing. He and Adebayour will be a strong force upfront that would provide a lot of scoring threats and shots on goal throughout the game. Cesc Fabregas on the other hand, will play his usual at the midfield position having a great time choosing who between Henry and Adebayour will be the recipient of his passes for their next goal.

There is one thing I don’t believe in Henry; that is, taking things easy after scoring early goals. Arsenal is looking to fine tune their formation from the midfield to the striker position and would like to make this game as a follow-up to their morale boosting win against Manchester United. Remember that they started this season with one of their worst records in history and a win against season leading Manchester United gave them back their egos. A win against Sheffield is expected and would not do much in their confidence unless they destroy them and score more goals than the norm

It will be an interesting match not because both teams are going to play well, but because Arsenal is going to provide entertaining display of brilliance.
