Jamie is humble enough to admit his fear of Thierry. Respect.

"...you guys stopped me more than I passed you, all I need is one..." That really explains why I enjoyed watching Henry play, his tenacity and of course the skill and fitness to pull it off. You can tell he really enjoys playing! Great attitude and lesson for life...thanks Thierry

I could listen to the LEGEND Henry talk about footy 24/7.

Henry is a complete masterclass.

He did so well explaining this in English, just imagine how much more he could have covered if he was speaking in French.

What a great analysis of Mbappe. Listening to Henry talk, it's easy to understand why he was so deadly. His physical abilities were secondary to his mind & thought process. Thank you Henry for all your insights! 🙏

Henry is the best TV analyst right now hands down. He has such a depth of understanding of the forward position and even better is able to articulate it so well. I think he could one day make a great coach. Very good teacher of the sport. He takes you into the thought process of players

😂 Playing a clip of him destroying Carragher is savage

Henry’s bit on R9 was nothing but absolute facts!

One of Mmappe's quaiity is this deadly accuracy.. even if he shoots and the goalie blocks it it's almost always on target, never wide or above... amazing

Mbappe not just only fast but he is terribly well balanced.

Mbappe has almost no memory in a game. He forgets his bad plays, and moves on. It doesn't affect the rest of his game. And he is one energizer bunny.

i used to think Mbappe was overhype when he was in Monaco, so i wanted to checked and watched one of Monaco's game, and you don't need to be a scout expert to see just how good he is, not just fast, he's not normal, i agree to Henry to say that he's a freak, he's just build different, never seen someone like that.

It's so beautiful to hear a master speak about his craft. Thank you Monsieur Henry.

When a legend like Henry -- one of the best EPL player ever -- said that he was inspired by R9 it speaks volumes for Ronaldo.

"And if you open that window 🪟, he will step into your house" (Henry talking about Mbappé) 😂 Legend

What Henry said in the first part about defenders is what makes Van Dijk the best. He rarely makes the first move even 1 on 1. He waits till the strikers don't know what to do.

Henry and Mbappe so so similar man, Mbappe is already there younger but Henry is a motivation and role model for Mbappe too! And R9 is just legendary !!

“At the beginning of the game i will give you 5 runs for no reason just to let you know that i’m faster than you” wow well said Henry as a guy who plays as striker this is true i do this all the time

Jamie is right. Pacey, tricky CFs like Henry, Mpabbe, CR7 etc put fear into defenders and win the psychology battle more often than not

Henry described in an interview how much his father, who was his coach in little league, influenced him by being ruthless about effort and quality of play. His dad gave Thierry a hard time driving back from a game they had won 6-0, telling they had no excuse, they should have scored 11 or 15 goals. Thierry grew up with a hyper motivation from his dad, and he worked for his skills and mind set .... and lately he has understood that Mbappe Is made of the same stuff. These guys train and get better all along their career.

Henry… what a legend. Ya just don’t realize what you are watching till they’re gone. I miss his playing career. Aahhhh the memories. I’m so glad there is KZfaq where I can relive these moments

R9 was the most lethal striker I have ever seen. I have watched so much of him and it never clicked that he played for Barca and Madrid and Ac and Inter Milan and never got booed by either sets of fans!!

His control while still running full speed is incredible.. it's what separates him from so many players.

5:44 THIS this is what works in any sport! im a team handball player playing as playmaker, i would just make threats first 10 minutes, just so i could use it to make assists later in game.. LOVE this aspect of Thierry's thinking and how he teaches everyone now. and he goes on for minutes about this

Yet little kids on the internet criticize Mbappe…He’s the next generation learn to appreciate him.

This video just proves, that defenders also need to be praised for having to stop attacks like this all the time, and its a pity that the limelight is mostly on the strikers and sometimes mid-fielders, and great goalkeepers even, but defenders is the team's immune system.

Mbappe has solidified himself as the next king to be crowned after his heroic 2022 World Cup. He’s a stallion and only 23! God pray he stays healthy. I can’t wait to see him dazzle us. I’m all in on Mbappe.

What a world cup final...perhaps the best ever in the history of the world cup..big up to Argentina....and France, football at its best...Messi number {1} and Mbappé the golden boot boy, what a display of determination...absolutely great football...

Only one of a few players I watched for many years who I admired for the ability to place the ball wherever he wanted to score a goal. Thierry Henry, one of the best to play the game.

He is teaching! Amazing... Any young striker needs to listen to him... wow!!!

nice to see these legends come full circle with an analysis of their past games.. wonder who the future generation of presenters are gonna be.. haaland and van dijk will be interesting

My favourite strikers. Ronaldo Nazario, Thierry Henry, Samuel Eto'o, Andre Shevchenko and Zlatan Ibhrahimovic

R9 was the most dominant player when he stepped on the scene. When he was in his prime, there was no comparison to anyone else. Injuries did its thing and he didn't have the longevity, but in my humble opinion the best football player I've ever seen play.

Legend..Thierry Henry..Just look at that analysis.. Greatest player ever the EPL would ever produce.. Henry was the one that convinced me to be an arsenal fan.. Just one goal was enough to convince me..My best player ever of all time.

A man who can play well and be a good sporting director too

Henry one of the only pundits that actually makes sense you leave with more information you didn't know or deeper analysis. Espn are the worse 😂 they literally talk and don't say anything

R9 is still The Total Package ! Henry's main weapon was he saw goal potential way before anybody else on the pitch could and he utilized all his speed, techniques and mind to achieve that.

Gentlemen speaking about the game, each other and recognizing their individual talents is amazing. Game Recognizes Game. ❤

Titi 💯🔥 I'm a Chelsea fan but i consider him as the Greatest striker in EPL

Mbappe's the Best, no Doubt!!

Beautiful breakdown and tremendously insightful comments! Great visual explanation, too! There should be a show dedicated to Thierry breaking down individual goalscorers.

Titi game knowledge is amazing

I’m more than eager to see Mbappe and Benzema together at the World Cup

Football masterclass from a legend

Henry’s goals were always very very artistic. Henry was more a cunning, smooth and slippery player with a graceful game

6:20 Henry mentions George Weah being one of his insprations. G.Weah winner of 1995 Ballon d'Or is now the President of Liberia.

exactly on Henry point, I remember how it felt when R9 had the ball in a game, my blood was rushing because I felt he's going to dribble a lot of players and the way he did it with a lot of power and the beauty was just one of my top favorites.

This is really great. I love hearing from great footballers telling us what was going through their minds and what was their thought process.

This was absolutely brilliant. So grateful that this content exists. Respect all around

I really miss watching my fav player all time. I was fortunate to see him very early in his career when he still played for AS Monaco in the UEFA Cup vs Mönchengladbach on October 15th 1996 (thanks to the internet for finding this date). Watching this guy made me develop interest for football. Back then, there was no relevant internet, so cable TV was the only opportunity to see him play rarely. He firstly showed up on the big stage during world cup 1998 and became a famous player, but not a star yet. After a short stint at Juve, where he was used as a winger and couldn't score many goals (3 in 16 games), it was Arsenal London and coach Arsene Wenger who really helped him become the great player that might became a role model for young CR7 or Mbappe later on. Coming from Hamburg, Germany the best opportunity to see him in real life was an UEFA Cup game in Bremen on March 23rd 2000. So my dad took us there and I witnessed him play and scoring a goal, but also receiving his only red card in European competitive football. It was an amazing experience. The following years he improved like each year and scored more goals anybody had expected in his early years, where he hadn't been very efficient. The only thing, he wasn't able to achieve has been being the top player of a team that wins the biggest trophy. In 1998 he was too young and Zidane was the main guy for France winning the world cup. In 2000 he performed ok on that French team who won the EURO 2000. In 2002 and 2004 he was in his prime, but France couldn't win a title. In 2006 France made the world cup final again, but Zidane was their best player. As Arsenal's best player he couldn't lift them to the UEFA Cup in 2000 losing to Galata and not to the Champion's league title, losing to Barca in 2006. Then he joined Barca to win the CL as their maybe 4th or 5th best player in 2009 at age 32. So Zidane, Ronaldinho, Messi and even Hagi took the spotlight on the biggest stage from him. But regardless, it was very very special to see him play. Thank you, Titi!

Mbappe's first goal and the way he goes down the line with pace is really similar to how Henry would sometimes play. Mbappe must have studied Henry's moves or something.

This was a beautiful analysis, I could listen to Henry talk about football all day

Taking a move and decision perhaps from instinct in a key time is called inspiration. Mbappé is fully capable to create trajectories and open spaces

one legend admiring the beauty of an awesome talent.

So many players score goals, but this guy made it look easy.

Genius. Damn. Henry explained it so well!

Henry is a legend! Great show, wow. Well done!

The respect between Jamie and Henry is amazing

So beautiful analysis...thank you legend

The humility from Henry is just unbelievable

For some reason watching this giving me goosebumps. How a master thinks and execute. Think simple, don't over complicated things...@3:15

I miss watching Thierry Henry play football but getting to hear him talk about it is pretty damn good as well.

if guys like henry, zidane, zlatan, mourinho, ronaldinho & co. say that R9 is THE best player they ever saw.. then you can feel what an absolute monster he was. His prime on barca and inter were not normal at all. he could do everything he wanted to. Then he had the bad injurys with his knee and changed as a player alot but STILL (2002ish up to real madrid time) was the best player says it all really. He sadly was hindered alot by his injury. and yes messi and cr7 got 13+ years of top performance but were also lucky af with injurys. R9 is the biggest "what if... he didnt had the injurys" in football. There was another brazilian of similar power.. we all know his name: adriano. but sadly the dead of his father took all his happiness away and he declined fast in success.

2:03 is the MOST Nigerian parent sarcasm ever 😭😭😭😭 and then their reaction like “oh yeah” 😭

Splendid analysis!! Not only sitting at a table, but also combining it with some moves👌🏽

Brilliant analysis from Thierry Henry on Kylian Mbappe is just superb

He’s direct and knows what he’s doing he knows his next move I watch him and I used the same tactic he used I like to dribble and attack defenders but I’m smart about it these guys you play with dribble dribble dribble hoping they can make something out of nothing he’s my favorite player to watch currently I used to watch ronaldinho all my life and I can’t learn from any other player to used into my game until mbappe came along young kids who are attacks should watch mbappe we can learn from him

sky sports need to replace gary neville with thierry henry

Amazing analysis. I didn’t even know De Lima’s was Henry’s hero. And they both my favorite players of all time

You know what I love about cbs sports, they let this whole segment without interruption! Henry explain this so well for someone that it’s retired didn’t even said one single bad thing about mbappe he just explain how great he is at his craft

Kylian is much more complete player I can guarantee he will accomplish a lot more

I was lucky enough to meet Thierry in Philadelphia while he was walking in to the hotel before his game in 2013. He's all class and a really cool dude. 😎

Spot on Jamie. Fear factor. You can see it on Kylian's first goal against Poland. They are so scared of his speed and his curler, he popped it to the near post. Lethal!!

Always interesting to listen to Henry's analysis.

This is brilliant! Merci Titi

Richards and Carragher are in awe every time Henry speaks

Simply he was saying "I kicked Jamie's ass" in the most respectful way.

Henry.. what a legend , as player as character with classy nd charming personality! I'd love to meet him one day.

it's funny how they combined his speech with video cuts like if it comes out of nowhere yet they certainly did the preparation. Great episode

I loved when he said he would give 5 runs for no reason just to let you know he’s faster than you. I was never fast when I played, so I used to just run people over off the ball a few times and by mid game people played back off of me and it gave me space. Just gotta use whatever you’ve got. I didn’t have speed, so I used strength lol 😂

I rate Mbappe highly but I'd take Henry over him anyday

What a legend Theiry Henry. One of my all time favourites

Henry is such a gem. He had this perspective from the greats who totally see the game in a different way. They see opening that only those type of superior/legendary players see.

As a Spurs fan I have to say he makes football sound even easier than he played it.... Extraordinary!

That was a great insight when he said he used to give them 5 quick runs early in a game just to let them know they were toast for the rest of the game.

Henry is the 🐐 of commentating, his knowledge and criticism it precise and he’s not cocky at all.

Henry is a Maestro! Man knows his onions. Legend! 💯

This guy is just a freak ~Thierry Henry

Power is nothing without control.

Powerful analysis from Henry. Honestly, Henry can be a good lecturer.

the crew is just awesome .breaking down facts with touch of humor from time to time.impressive stuff

Micah has never shocked you with knowledge when the spotlight is on him to explain something. 🤣

Pace and lethal finishing. Quick on the ball and his most devastating move is his acceleration. Playing a quick one two around the box is 99% guaranteed a goal.

I think all us born in the 80's were inspired by R9. He introduced customizing basic skills into something defenders never seen before.

2:00 "Where is he gonna go there, the goal is there?" When you put it like that...

Thierry Henry : football legend and language genius

Henry on his prime was certainly first tear in all time strikers. Magnificent

Hearing Henry reference George Weah as one of his inspirations makes me feel proud

Henry makes top ten best ever in my opinion, he won world cup and got to another world cup final and won eourpean cup. Then domesticly cleaning up. I happy seen him play in person , insanely good
