It must be amazing to be a Liverpool player says Thierry Henry
THIERRY HENRY has once again revealed his admiration for Liverpool supporters after hailing Anfield as his favourite away ground in the world.
The France striker, who was speaking at the launch of Reebok's 'Your move' campaign in Barcelona recently, believes England boasts a number of atmospheric stadiums but insists he has never experienced anywhere with the same passion as on the red half of Merseyside.
"For my first few years at Arsenal we didn't do well there, but we improved," he said
"It's the atmosphere I love. It's unbelievable. I've played in a lot of stadiums but for me there is nothing like playing at Liverpool.
"Nothing can beat Highbury, of course, but playing at Anfield was great. The fans always sing and hold up their scarves before and after the game - whether they have won or lost.
"It must be amazing if you are a Liverpool player."
Javier Mascherano still flying flag for Liverpool
OLD habits die hard.
It might have been a World Cup qualifier on the other side of the world, but last week's Brazil-Argentina clash contained plenty of North West rivalry.
Manchester United star Anderson went to ground following a challenge from Javier Mascherano during a tense goalless draw - and would not get back up.
He was in considerable pain as the medics tried to work on the outside of his left knee, and was almost in tears as he was stretchered off after three long minutes.
There is fear of ligament damage, something that could rule the youngster out for the start of the season if not more, particularly if it is the anterior cruciate ligament.
Football, eh. Bloody hell.
