Thierry Henry Was An Absolute Beast In His Prime 🤯

He was faster than he looked, his running style was unique, he had giant strides, he was rapid, prime Henry would have walker on toast!

[@ebronjeremiah880]

@@Legend-zo9bc I agree with you

[@csakegybolond264]

No doubt. What people don't realize he was not a Vinicius like attacker but more like a Leao on steroids. Walker dominated Vini because he is smaller than him. But people should realize that the close control of Henry was great, he could dribble with both feet. But most importantly he was very smart, big and strong. Walker even complained about that he couldn't do anything about the acceleration of Mbappe. If Mbappe is a guy who can dominate hím physically I don't doubt that a Prime Henry wouldn't give him a chance. Plus to be honest I think Walker could be grateful he never really played against Marcus Thuram or Leao because they are the players nowadays who are pretty similar to Henry but a bit worse.
