Once Arsenal's golden boy, an invincible and a superb Premier League legend, Thierry Henry has come a long way. After a great period at Barcelona, Henry retired in America before proceeding into the coaching role under Roberto Martinez in Belgium as a second assistant coach.

Romelu Lukaku, Manchester United's leading striker heaped praise on Henry stating that the Frenchman was " very demanding " and has helped his positioning a lot which makes him avoid the off-side traps.

Henry's new chapter has begun as A.S Monaco came knocking on his door after they parted ways with Jardim and Henry took the opportunity with both hands. He was linked with Aston Villa but proceeded to take over at his former club.

Henry expressed clearly that he wants to emulate Guardiola's playing style but also instil the professionalism taught by Arsene Wenger. He is going to become a very interesting coach to watch out for and he has the potential to return to England definitely one day.
