What a load of bull, to even try and suggest to the most ignorant of fans that Henry only has one assist this season,would be be futile,let alone those knowledgeble sun readers,this definatly takes the biscuit.

i saw that before, just put it down as a mistake. Didnt he get more than in one game, which happened to be our last game against boro.

Eh :?:

I saw that in the Sun this morning and it says Henry assits = 5, RvN assists = 1.

 

[thegame24]

yea only 5 for henry but they dont take into account the amount of ****ing times he starts plays. giving the last assist doesnt really mean **** all most of the times especially at man u. that one van nistlerooy has was probably a tap across the goal and scholes tapped it in.

look at henry vs southampton he ****ing pulled that pass out like it was nobodys business lets see van nistlerooy do that.


why do ****ers like the sun or itv keep comparing henry and van nistlerooy? for **** sake henry is classified among the worlds best performers when will they just give it up and say HENRY IS BETTER. van nis is a great goalscorer but comparing the two as ootball players is *.
saying van nis is better than henry is like saying gary lineker was better than diego Maradona

 

[kanuuu]

they just put the names over the wrong column

Henry has more than 1 assist!
I even think he has more than 5!

Ruuds stats are more decieving, he plays a different game.
Ruud is usually in the box while players just bomb passes towards his way, usually using his body to take up space and shove people in there.
Ruud plays as a sole striker.

Henry actually has to make long shots and create his own chances.
Arsenal play more a creative game while manure is more of a physical dirty kinda game.

Many of Henry's goals were from the freekick area while Ruud's were right in front of the goalie!

Yeah it was a mistake and they corrected in the newspaper, but those stats do not say anything much about titis contribution to the season.

Jus' a misprint. Henry's direct assists are well down this year in the EPL, which is weird.... and just goes to show we are not over-reliant on him. 40 EPL goals, 13 by him, and only 5 assists. Don't look like over-reliance to me!

YEAH! he's useless lets sell him

its the kind of "accident" the Sun thrive on. Example. If there is a plane crash, in reality 20 people die, in the Sun 30 people die. Inaccuracy, sensationalism and vaguely right wing politics is what conspires to make it Britains most popular newspaper.

 

[Alexone234]

in fact, here are the official stats for assists. Even 5 would be wrong.

12 for Izzet and 9 for Emerton? :shock:

 

[jc8gooner]

Henry also has 5 CL assists and two FA Cup assists.

 

[D.Dappa]

i thought it was more than 6 in the premiership.....

 

[Andrew]

12 for Izzet and 9 for Emerton? :shock:

Have Leicester even scored that many goals this season?

 

[pamilih]

The goal assist number must be wrong ...
