It makes me happy knowing the last uniform he ever wore was ours. Thank you for everything. A Metro Legend in every sense.

Amazing career.. Happy for that Supporter's Shield ... Whether something else could've been gotten is moot by now ...

First Pablo and now Henry.  Wow, we're getting old.  Before you know, it'll be Howard and followed by Jozy and Agudelo.  Though Agudelo probably retired already.

I have had some amazing memories (mostly good!) and a wonderful experience.

 

That's the man in a nutshell.

Comeon, Juan is too #blessed and #toolegittoquit. He's still on the #soccergrind. I'm sure he'll pop up somewhere in Europe soon, right? #meetyourgoals

I'll say it again.

 

Thierry Daniel Henry. Monaco. Juventus. France. Arsenal. Barcelona. Metro. Legend.

 

That is all.

Since he never got a proper send-off (as he made sure), I hope, when they bring him back for the unveiling of the Henry-ing statue this summer, it is at when the Scum are in town.  It would just seem right.

Along with the stadium, he's the reason I'm now a fan for life.   Hope we see a player as good as him in the future.   Great stuff and I also think it's cool that this is the last jersey he'll wear.

Have to be honest, this nearly made me choke on my coffee... Nice!

Remember all the hater knuckleheads so confident he was dumping us and going somewhere else to play?  Never a doubt in my mind he was done.

JPA and TH14 retiring in the same week is fucking bittersweet.

Biggest goal in my opinion was the first against Chicago for the Supporter's Shield.   That game had everything of a "Here we go again" feel to it.  We were even losing and he came up with a goal that not many people can pull off.

 

Woke the entire team and stadium up and reminded everyone who the best player on the field was.

 

 

 

Plenty of mention as some of his best goals but I'd probably go with the Olympico vs CBus.  That goal vs KC was pretty damn great this season as well.
