The Wikipedia page for the unbeaten season says, "But it had not always looked like this. Until February, Arsenal had bounced between first and third place, as the three-way race with Chelsea and Manchester United seemed unpredictable.... in February Arsenal only led the table because they began with an "A". But Arsenal got even better in the second half of the season..." because of the arrival of the mercurial wee gyppo with a left foot like a traction engine? He certainly gave us a lift, and the opposition something different to worry about.
If Henry had been a bit nicer to him. If he'd had an IQ greater than his boot size. If our supporters had suppressed a few groans...
He never should have scored that goal against Chelsea. I kept expecting him to do that every week.
Agree with Sir C that Henry didn't support him enough. It was like he was jealous. The glaring stares if his pass was millimetres out or he missed a lay off...
I really felt for Jose Antonio and still watch him a little in La Liga..
I think we also forget how homesick he was.. and unused to anywhere outside his front door.
Poor bugger.
