When Henry signed last summer more than 30,000 faithful cules turned up to watch the presentation. Everyone was waiting to watch him line-up alongside Ronnie, Eto'o and Messi but lets face it he's not cut the mustard.

It's true that he has been struggling with injury this season and it should not be forgotten that he missed a lot of the last campaign as well through this but what is most worrying is that he doesn't really appear to be trying his hardest out there. It's almost as though he doesn't want to be there.

It's understandable that he is irritated by the constant comparisons with Arsenal but it is inevitable that people are going to be looking for a similar style player but where is he. Pires his ex-team-mate says it's because he is depressed and it is down to problems with the break-up with his wife. He also says that he is not happy about being played out of position on the wing.

After the Villarreal match he is supposed to have stormed off after being substituted and not waited behind to see the players. Then he didn't train on Monday apparently due to a headache. It all sounds a bit strange to me but one thing is for sure ex-vice president Sandro Rosell seems to be right in his judgement that it was money wasted on a player past his best.
