    Henry is a fancy dan player
    ... who has 164 goals and 71 assists in 237 PL games (though wiki may be inaccurate). That's effectively a goal scored or made every game.
    Thierry Henry has racked up extraordinary goalscoring feats in his time at Arsenal, but he has only scored one hat-trick against the 'big teams' you mention. That came on Good Friday, April 9 2004 when Henry netted three times in the 4-2 win over Liverpool. For the record, that took his tally against the Reds to six goals in 11 starts. He has not scored hat-tricks against the other sides you list, but has scored seven times against Manchester United in 11 starts, eight times against Chelsea in 10 starts and just five against Newcastle in his 11 starting appearances for Arsenal. He has also scored four goals in nine north London derbies against Tottenham.
    That's 6 months old. He's since increased his goal tallys against Tottenham, Liverpool and Juventus, and added Real Madrid to a Euro list that already includes Bayern Munich, Inter Milan and Valencia among others.

    Zola, now there's a fancy dan.

    No Ricky, he was capped for England a few times. Graeme Le Saux was another player from the Channel Islands who played for England.

    I think I read somewhere that if you are born in the Channel Islands you are entitled to play for France or any of the UK nations, so Le Tiss had a choice of France, England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland...

    Could have been a dream though...
