Arsenal’s legend Thierry Henry apologized for his behaviour after Sunday’s match against Swansea when he used inappropriate language when speaking to one of Arsenal’s supporters who was unsatisfied of the club’s poor performance on the day.
“I was really shocked and disappointed on Sunday, and not just at the result,” Henry told The Sun.
“After the final whistle of a very tricky game, I insisted the whole team go and applaud the Arsenal supporters.
“When I arrived in front of our own fans, I couldn’t understand the abuse the team were getting from one of them.
“I wanted to tell the fan in question that we need their support not abuse. The sentiment was right but in hindsight could have been better expressed.
“So I would like to first and foremost apologise for using inappropriate language to that particular ‘supporter’.
“I didn’t intend to be malicious or threatening and am aware that it could have been said in a calmer manner.”
Henry might receive a fine for his behaviour, but above all it’s his image the French star is most worried about. Nobody can know what the fan actually said to cause this nervous reaction from the one they call “Titi”, but the veteran should take more care about his image cause now he has a statue and a legacy to honour.
What? The fan(s) that dissrespected Titi should be banned from Arsenal games or simply shot. I admire Titi for standing jo to retarded spoiled brats that just take for granted that we should win every game. We are darned blessed with succes already and if you only go the games because you assume on a win, then piss off to Barcelo(a)na or Real Madrid.
Really? You mean the guy who spent probably 10% of his salary for season tickets, can only do as good as paying his bills and nothing more, probably drove up in his 5 year old Honda Civic or crammed himself in the tube with hundreds of other smelly, sweaty people to watch one of the richest clubs in the world with multi-millionaire players lose to a newly promoted team is a spoiled brat?
While I love TH, he’s not above criticism and it’s not his fault for the loss since his game time was barely there, but he cannot expect us regualr common folk to pay the highest ticket prices in football with our barely there salary to not get pissed when we lose to Swansea.
He has nothing to worry about … he is Henry
I do not blame the fan however, what was said needs to be said! It is just a shame Henry has to be back to witness this
i was so pissed after the swansea loss i would have strangled any person near me.the fan was just one amoungst millions who are frustrated at the team’s performance. king henry, pls,next time yu loose a stupid game[this SUNDAY] just walk thro the tunnel with bowed head and disapear.leave the mourning fans alone
