Rosicky: Henry and I have a telepathic understanding

Winger Tomas Rosicky says that him and Arsenal captain Thierry Henry have an almost telepathic understanding on the pitch.

The Czech Republic international has said that he teams up well with the French striker and hopes to be providing more assists for Henry, whilst attempting to also score more goals himself.

Rosicky said: "Thierry and I are very well attuned and we are singing from a very similar hymn sheet.

"He knows what I am going to do and vice-versa.

"You can't practise combinations with Henry, it's something intuitive. You must be able to think like your team-mate, as if you were in his shoes.

"When you are trying to outwit a top defence you have to come up with something unusual and play at lighting speed so your opponent cannot guess what you are going to do.

"That's something I have always liked - Playing one-touch football and exchanging passes. At Arsenal I can play.

"Of course, sometimes it doesn't work out but when something like that comes off and ends with a goal, it is also a real treat for those who are watching."

What a crock of sh**! He doesn't have half the understanding that Henry & Pires had. Those two scored loads of goals and probably half of them were assists from one another.

id like to believe this but i cant remember Tomas making any goals for the skipper but it would be great if the two could have the same understanding that Thierry and Robert had. Here's hoping Tomas is playing much better though. Denilson to become the next Cesc.
