Wenger praises Henry

Henry returned to Arsenal for a brief loan spell, and went back to New York last week.

“On the pitch he was great and off the pitch he was great”, Wenger told Arsenal’s official site.

“He always maintained hope and positive morale in the team and I would like to thank him for that and wish him well for the rest of the season.

“I am sure he will have a great season with his club because he is quite sharp and I am confident that in the United States his team will do well with him.”
