During an interview published Tuesday in “L’Équipe”, Thierry Henry made a small confession in connection with a certain Sonny Anderson.
Appointed to the position of national coach of the Espoirs tricolores, Thierry Henry is enjoying himself. After mixed experiences with Monaco and Impact Montreal, the 1998 world champion this time seems in his element. With his Bleuets, he won his first two matches with, each time, a total of four goals scored. On the occasion of the final international window of the year 2023, Thierry Henry answered questions from The Team. With a little anecdote to boot.
Referring to his years as a consultant on Prime Video (he continues to be one for the CBS channel), the former Arsenal player expressed his happiness at having been able to discuss with certain major players. “ I was able to interview Pep (Guardiola), I was able to talk to coaches by arriving at the stadiums quite early before the matches… I am fond of that, I ask lots of questions, it was already the same when I was player, I was tiring everyone.“
“ I took things from everyone“
And Thierry Henry tells the story of a small – and very admissible – theft. “ I was tiring Sonny Anderson, I was tiring Enzo Scifo… People think I’m the high socks, but it’s Sonny. I took it from him (laughs). I took things from everyone. » To help him become the very high-level player that he has become, Thierry Henry did not hesitate to draw inspiration from everything around him, whether in football terms or even aesthetic and clothing terms. .
