Re: CR7 vs Henry
Hard to say really, Henry was worth more to Arsenal than what CR7 was to us. I would go for Henry as he was loyal and probably the best role model for anyone who wanted to be a striker. He had pace, skill and the best finishing i've ever seen!

I dont know to be honest, like i want to pick Ronaldo but i would only be choosing him for his show boating but when it comes to overall ability on and off the pitch and team work i guess theres only one person
King Henry!

When your playing with zidane, this is hardly surprising. None of portugals playmakers can even come close to what france had w/ henryali8775 wrote:Also , Henry is Frances top scorer, has a world cup and a euro...what did Cristiano do internationally?

Anyone who has watched Henry in his prime will not hesitate to say that THeirry has been the 2nd best striker after the Real Ronaldo in the last 15 years or so
Henry scored goals when defence was much better in the Premier league. He scored goals when it mattered in the PL.
in 07/08 Ronaldo mainly scored tap ins, or against relegating teams. the only goal he scored against top 4 teams was against Arsenal in the 2-2 match lol
It's not like ronaldo is playing striker for us, he's playing the same position as henry, LAM/LW (hybrid winger/striker).
I'm not biased, I've watched henry play since I was a kid, he's one of my favorite players. But its not like he didn't score tap ins too.
Ronaldo IS much bigger (the dude is 83 kgs, and that was last year, this year he is even bigger). Henry was taller but Ronaldo is a monster physically, only thing henry will match him at is speed.
Yes yes, we all thought villa would score 40+ goals at barca. But did he? Ronaldo is proven in 2 leagues. He didn't do so hot with barca either, although he was good at first.
Once again, 28 goals compared to 50+ goals?
So ronaldo has never missed a tap in ?
And LW is ronaldos position on paper, your every single attack finishes with him, he is your top dog. Henry never was important to barca as ronaldo is to you. Eto'o was the main figure in terms of scoring goal and 2nd was messi. Compare that with madrid, every single attack starts from ronaldo and finishes with him. And yea i agree ronaldo is a physical beast, dont see why thats important lol ?
Villa plays as a LW mate, and once again, he doesnt have the role of Ronaldo. Messi is what ronaldo is at madrid.
No, infact our attacks do not start and end at ronaldo all the time. He has very very rarely missed a tap in this season, unlike benz or higuain who have missed several. The play actually can end with benz/higuain getting a goal, an individual dribble, or some of our other players creating chances. Our game is not centered around ronaldo and we have seen that in the clasicos.
And anyhow, you still have not answered why henry has scored much less goals then cristiano. Seriously, our midfield is our biggest problem along with the CB position, so I don't see how henry has had worse supply then CR.

you act like Portugal is Iceland ! To say that France won a world cup and euro is cause of Zidane alone that is ridiculous! Even in 2006 France 1-0 Brazil. Who scored ?

Simple answer really...you make it sound like you're asking the question that will make you win the argument. Henry was not just a striker. He dropped deep, created play, passed the ball....his job wasn't to score goals, it was to do everything and he did that. Unless you actually watched him, which I'm assuming you didn't as you couldn't answer that question, you will never understand the difference between the two.
Henry won the CL, WC, Euro etc. etc. ....Where is Ronaldo in all of this? Henry won all those trophies with different teams, so you can't say "Oh, Henry had bla, blala and blabla with him on the team so it was easy" because he won trophies with every team he became a part of.
Like I said though, its futile to argue if you haven't seen Henry.

Re: CR7 vs Henry
what exactly makes Cristiano a better footballer than Henry? Henry did things that Ronaldo could never do on the pitch. hes a better leader, role model, etc etc etc.

Re: CR7 vs Henry
Right now I would say Henry, TH was truly my favorite player in the world outside Real Madrid and of course after my R9.
CR7 is still only 26 though when he is done with his career I'm pretty sure Ronaldo will be the superior one.

Re: CR7 vs Henry
CR7 is still not finished, and there is still the effect of nostalgia when talking about Henry. I can't see this debate having any substance till at least 5 years from when CR finish his career, or reach the twilight point of his career.

Many people are making it sound like if Henry was the factor for France winning the WC.

Re: CR7 vs Henry
Anything can happen in the next few years to affect this debate. CR can get better, or worse.
Remember Owen.................
Owen (the nightmare scenario for every rising star)
Also, nostalgia over henry is still in full effect, and hence arguments will be colored.
P.S: Thuram was the best french player the last 20 years IMO.

Re: CR7 vs Henry
Henry is the reason arsenal haven't won anything for the past 6 years, I remember the champion league final 2006. Arsenal were down to 10 players due to a controversial call in the first 15 minutes. This guy was fearless, was the only arsenal player playing optimistically. He was giving 200% at the end of this video you can see how tired henry looks.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqWPad2Y4Ds&feature=related
You can also say he alone took real madrid out of the 2006 champion league after having scored a wonder goal after dribbling 4 defenders.
