Arsenal legend Henry: I'm not back to be a hero

Arsenal legend Thierry Henry is happy to be part of the squad, despite his heroics against Leeds United.

The Frenchman had already declared he had not come back to be a hero, and maintains from here on in, it is all about the squad.

"I love the club - I say it so many times. We are not going to redo the story - I just love the club and that's how it is," he said.

"If the boss needs me for 30 seconds, a minute, if he doesn't need me, I am going to try to be around the guys and help in the dressing room."

Henry, who was back in training at London Colney despite it being a rest day, added: "I always want more so I don't know if it is going to be a goal, a pass or a tackle.

"I am here to be another player, to help the squad and that is it."
