Wenger: Thierry Henry inspired Arsenal to 6-2 victory
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger says the presence of Barcelona striker Thierry Henry in the stands inspired their 6-2 win over Blackburn Rovers.
Henry was back at Emirates stadium to see his former club and Wenger told arsenal.com: "Thierry inspired today our goalscoring because they wanted certainly to show Thierry they can score goals and they are good followers of him.
"It is good to see him back here although I believe he belongs more to Highbury than to Emirates because certainly, coming back to Highbury, would have more memories than here but we are happy to have him with us.
"He would have scored today certainly."
