Thierry Henry joins the Sky team for an absolute fortune from next year and his future colleague Gary Neville has spoken in detail about Henry the player, recalling how they met in the 1997-98 Champions League final when United surprisingly lost to Monaco.
Neville compared Henry to the early Cristiano Ronaldo (2003-2005 model), in that both began as players with bundles of pace, potential and natural talent but were bad decision makers with a poor understanding of the game.
Things changed drastically shortly afterwards.
