Henry says he wouldnt pay to watch Beckham

[Andrew]

I would pay to see Beckham more. Some people admire tricks and fancy stuff like Christiano Ronaldo does. Mostly (especially in C Ronaldo's case) they don't get anywhere... Figo and Ronaldo do it better. But I admire 60 yard defence splitting balls which sail over all the defenders to set up a goal. Simple, yet so effective, very intelligent and takes more technique than a few stepovers does. That's just personal preference, but if I want to few a few stepovers and fancy tricks I'll go to the schoolyard.

and with that.... 8)

But now, with Messi and Ronaldhino coming to the fore, I would pay to watch them.

Didn't need to but it's interesting how times change, is it not so?

I don't really think they've changed that much since then. By the way, Messi rarely does any stepovers.

But Henry's vow to stay at Arsenal has changed. At least he's not so outspoken on the matter.
