Arsenal legend Thierry Henry paid tribute to Manchester United's Paul Scholes before yesterday's clash.
The English midfielder first crossed paths with Henry way back in August 1999 at Highbury and the Frenchman has been a huge fan ever since.
"If you let him play, he can kill you, and for me he was so underrated. The way he plays: one touch, arriving late into the box, the way he strikes the ball, his vision, his passing. Incredible.
"I know people used to give him some stick for his tackling, but I liked that. He put his foot in, showed some character, had a go, but I liked that about him too. For me he is one of the best midfielders I have ever seen.""United always had many amazing players, but whenever we faced them we were always, always, always scared of what Paul Scholes could do," he told the Official Arsenal ProgrammeArsenal team, they will tell you the same.
