Since taking up his £4 million a year job in the Sky Sports analysis booth, Theirry Henry has eschewed nuanced and detailed analysis in favour of sitting in an expensive suit and looking smug.
Occasionally, in his more incisive moments, he shifts himself enough to be able to force the odd the cliched platitude out of his mouth.

Like the world and its mother, he is currently having a go at Arsene Wenger. Or, at least, making things more difficult for his old boss.
(I've) never heard the Arsenal supporters as angry as they were at the Emirates on Wednesday night.
They were less patient than I've ever known, booed one of the manager's substitutions and groaned every time a pass went astray or a tackle was lost.
Wenger responded in a particularly acidic fashion today. How the hell would Henry know what fans are doing?
He suggests that Thierry Henry is ill-suited to being a voice of the Arsenal support seeing as he parks his lucrative backside in the most expensive seats in the stadium.
Thierry Henry has his opinions. He has not found the measurement of the fans’ angriness of 60,000 people straight away because he sits in the best seats in the stadium.
A narky, pointed response from Wenger but surely Henry still has the use of his eyes and ears?
