Thierry Henry has been Arsenal’s top Premiership marksman for the past seven seasons. In that time only Robert Pires has regularly joined him in double figures for Arsène Wenger’s side.
However, this season, Arsenal have four players with a serious chance of grabbing more than 10 goals in the League - and Henry is loving the competition.
“It is amazing,” he told Arsenal.com. “Adebayor has six goals, Robin has 11, I have nine and Gilberto has seven.
“Even Kolo has been hitting the net. It seems that only Gael Clichy has not been scoring this season.
“That is what you want. It means the sides that you are playing against do not know where the goals are coming from.
”It is a team game and if you want to achieve anything then you need to work as a team. We are doing that at the moment. [For example] you look at a player like Cesc. He has not scored in the League this year but he has 10 assists already.”
Robin Van Persie is the current top goalscorer but they are likely to dry up for a while now. The Dutch striker cracked the fifth metatarsal in his right foot sliding home the equaliser against Manchester United on Sunday. The problem only came to light after the game. The 23-year-old played on for the final seven minutes and, in that time, Arsenal completed an incredible comeback.
“When I heard about it yesterday I was like ‘how did you get that injury? ‘how did it happen?’,” said Henry. “It seems this is the injury that everybody is having at the moment - that metatarsal thing.
“He has been playing tremendously well so it is a big blow for us and a big blow for him. I just hope he can come back as quick as possible because he has been doing some great stuff for us this season.
