Who is better?
I know most will say Messi, but what makes him better than Henry and what makes Henry inferior to Messi.

You guys seriously believe Henry is a better player than Messi?

EDIT: Not saying Messi is better...

Messi is the better player. Someone's trolling, or it's just another deluded thread where the content is not apparent.

Henry performed for both club and country. Even when said club was in shambles. Top 3rd CL scorer of all times.

Messi, only performs in superstud Barca side.

Henry > Messi. U mad?

Really, it's another one of those right tit, left tit choices

Henry in his prime was the only striker who could compete with R9 96-99, but still not on that level.

Henry ...

Seriously people need to stop commenting out of nostalgia.

Henry is one of the greatest forwards of the last two decades but Messi is a level ahead of Henry.Only Arsenal fans would think otherwise maybe and fanboy haters as well.

That Anelka vs Messi thread is a troll thread whereas this is actually a serious debate.

You can say Henry's finishing is on par with Messi, and he's got a bit of that "brazilian flair" in his game. But that's it. Messi is far superior and I'm sure Henry thinks so himself. I mean, ffs, players who played with MARADONA say Messi is superior to Maradona himself.

Oh, and you gotta love the argument that Henry is better because he has a world cup. So then Jesus Navas > Leo Messi and Johan Cruyff in that case.

Henry hands down

Messi & Ronaldo are just too much about scoring, scoring and scoring

Henry was something else.

Messi is too much about scoring? Have you not seen the 91 assists video by allasFCB? Have you not watched how Leo Messi threaded a perfect through ball for Xavi to win the champions league group in the San Siro??

People are saying Messi has the best final ball world football right now.

Listen to Surag and stop commenting out of nostalgia please.

I'm an Arsenal fan, and Messi is better but it's not by a huge margin; however, the difference between Henry and Messi is smaller than the difference between Christiano Ronaldo and Messi.

Although is easier for Messi to run past players because of his low center of gravity while for players like R9 or Henry there are only skills and technique.

here he is not using his gravity




so in what style you want him to get past players? tell me i will show you

here is zidane like dribbling


here is some another his skills


he is capable of doing most of skills but he is doing it very fast and he has short legs so tricks at his leg doesnt look as good as long legs, but his short legs can do any skills

I didn't say he hasn't skills, but he is not on par with these guys. Look at R9 before 99, changes of pace, tricks and dribblings at full speed.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2NHqSXftzU

Look at 2:44 (with 3 touches, he left 3 opponets behind isolated on the flank) for example or at 3:24.

those tricks work against 1 or 2 players. as you saw when messi used those tricks he got past only 1-2 player. to get past 4-5 players you need to do like messi does. he has at least 30-40 moments when he comes from midfield dribbling whole defence. only maradona was capable of that

That skill at 3:24 is considered one of the best in the history.

Only Maradona was capable of that ?
