The hand of Henry

Former team-mates Lee Dixon and Emmanuel Petit give their views on Henry’s hand-ball.

Lee Dixon:

He has been a truly great footballer – one of the best players we’ve ever seen in the Premier League – but now people will remember him for that goal against Ireland. It’s really sad.

Emmanuel Petit:

I don’t think it will damage his reputation. Thierry has done so much in his career and this is a very rare indiscretion.

In 15 years of knowing him, he has behaved magnificently. I haven’t seen him do anything badly wrong in his whole career so we can allow him one mistake.
