I had a dream. I had a dream that Thierry Henry scored a hat-trick against United to knock them out of the Champions League. I had a dream that he twined Wes Brown, kicked Rio Ferdinand in the balls, turned Patrice Evra and smashed the ball into the top right corner of the goal past Van Der Sar. I had a dream that Thierry Henry played against United like we know he can.

Of course, none of this happened. Thierry didn't start the game last night, and although he looked lively when he came on for the final 15 minutes he did not manage to score the goal which would have made me incredibly happy. Still, I have a feeling that he will score at Old Trafford and send shivers down the spines of Arsenal fans once again... Anyway, there has been talk of Thierry being unhappy at Barcelona all season. A combination of injuries, being played out of position, adapting to a new club, missing his daughter and generally being out of form have all played a part in what is being called a terrible season for the legend by the Spanish media. Indeed, in the second leg of Barcelona's Champions League quarter final against Shalke, the Frenchman received the dreaded 'white hanky' treatment (for those of you that do not know, this is the ultimate indication of discontent from the Barca fans, God knows why).

All of these factors and the reaction to him by the Barce fans have led many to believe that Henry might be looking for a transfer away from the Nou Camp this summer. It has been suggested he might go to another Premier League team (highly unlikely, as if he would play against Arsenal) or perhaps another top club in Europe. However, today on Sky Sports News, Graham Hunter suggested that Thierry is considering following David Beckham into the MLS. I nearly dropped my vitamin C drink upon hearing this. It is not news that Henry would like to play in the MLS one day. Indeed, he recently said that he would love to finish his career there, but he also uttered the critical words, 'not yet'. The idea that he might go and play in America from next season feels me with no emotion other than sadness, and there is a good reason for this.

Yesterday, the imaginitively titled 'Thierry Henry: Legend' DVD fell through my post box. Well, not really because our letter box is ridiculously small, so the post man just left it outside my door. What a treat someone would have got had they have stolen it! How unfortunate. Anyway, I watched some of his goals last night; some from the early Henry days, and some from during his last season at the club. I particularly enjoyed his goal against Liverpool in the FA Cup, where he passed the ball to himself, sped away from Jamie Carragher from the centre of midfield, left him for dead on the turf and side footed the ball past Dudek into the Liverpool goal.
