Arguably the best striker ever to have graced the Premier League, Henry had the most significant contribution in helping Arsenal win their third Premier League title.

His prolific season helped Arsenal go the entire season unbeaten - a record which is still not broken (as of 2018).

Henry's first of the thirty PL goals came in the very first match week of the season - a penalty against Everton. Arsenal won the match 2-1 and never looked back as they ended the season unbeaten.

Henry's best-goal haul was against Leeds United on 16th April 2004. After Robert Pires kickstarted the goal fest in the sixth minute, Henry took up the mantle to score his second hattrick in two matches.

Not content with scoring just three goals, Henry added a fourth in the 67th minute. With this, he reached 150 goals for the Gunners.

Henry has won the Premier League Golden Boot a record four times. However, his exceptional achievement will always be the 30-goal season which helped Arsenal become the Invincibles.

Newcastle legend and Premier League's highest goal-scorer Alan Shearer finished second with 22 goals.
