MATCHUP: Arsenal vs Manchester United
COMPLEX SAYS: In a rivalry similar to that of the Yankees and Red Sox only more bitter, Thierry Henry solidified his name in Arsenal history with this spectacular goal against the much-hated Manchester United club. It doesn’t matter that he plays for the Red Bulls now or joined Barcelona before that. It’s pretty simple: once a Gunner, always a Gunner!
