Barcelona's Henry: Bench felt comfortable

Barcelona striker Thierry Henry admits he's fed-up with talk of the club's 'Fantastic Four'.

How coach Frank Rijkaard handles the egos of Henry, Samuel Eto'o, Ronaldinho and Lionel Messi is already being hotly debated, but the Frenchman insists the issue is all the creation of the media.

"The only Fantastic Four I know about is the movie," said Henry. "If someone wants to see the Fantastic Four, then they should go to the cinema.

"I want to talk about the team, though I know I cannot stop people talking about these things."

Henry started Sunday's 0-0 draw at Racing Santander amongst the substitutes and joked: "The bench was comfortable. But I am trying to rediscover my best form so I can contribute to the team."
