“I hereby declare.. you are complete.” - Thierry Henry
Lol facts
😂😂
😂😂😂
I was laughing too :)))
"KING" Henry. Don't forget that.
Henry truly is a great striker analyzer. You can see him struggle a little getting it out smoothly but everything he is saying is spot on
@@sudarshangs4235 R9 plays golf?
@@theonsidepodcastwithvarun2910 yes he does
Simply because he's one of the best strikers ever!
@@theonsidepodcastwithvarun2910 don't even bother with them, Henry and no other great striker would ever put themselves in the same category as R9. Ronaldo was the perfect striker.
@@kernlove1986 R9 was better than Henry as a player no matter what these donkeys say
“The power is in the cross” - You can tell Henry understands the game really well
Well technicaly most of the power is in Benzemas momentum (physicly), and how he puts his weight in to the header. If he would have got the same cross while standing still, he could never head the ball with this pace. This wasnt a strong cross. So Henry is wrong with this statment or he is talking about "abstract power". Because it was indeed a perfect cross.
Well, he was a professional player for many years. It would be a paradox if he didn't understand the game. Like a veteran welder who doesn't understand welding...Henry could probably become a very good coach. The only thing I disn't like about him is when he cheated against Ireland, and that for me is a big stain on his otherwise good career.
@@AzUthred benzema perfectly deflects the ball with all its momentum.
@@AzUthred it's a mixture of both i'd say
He is a good analyst, ex great player doesnt necessarily have the capability to dissect the moment, most of them are instinctual/muscle memory coming from years and years of playing football. this kind of segment really goes to show people how much thing happen to create a great football, if you ever play football, you know to put the spin, hit the ball at certain places etc, for the pro in the field they dont even think, they just do and trust the training they did everyday. for us viewer, cause they make it seem so easy and natural, you assume what they do is easy and natural, until you touch the ball yourself.
I love seeing Henry break his game down, you can tell he’s a genuine admirer of Benzema’s talent. This is why Madrid lose out so much when he doesn’t play, it’s more than goals, it’s more than assists, Benzema literally connects the dots.
And that's why he's a GOAT 🐐🐐
@@jordanschlansky4093 amen 🙏🏻
He learnt to connect the dots by playing pretty much no. 10 for so long
@@Wonderkid44 literally! He’s a 9 and a half 😁
What makes Benzema even more awesome is that he does it not because he wants the spotlight, but because someone needs to take the 2 very important roles that were left vacant, and for the past seasons nobody was taking it up. Cristiano Ronaldo spotlight and Sergio Ramos captaincy. You can truly feel he's the captain of that team. He is taking the role not because he wants, but because he's the only one with the leadership skills that Real Madrid lost when Cristiano and Sergio Ramos left. You can see why they gave him the Captain armband, he brings a thirst to continue to push that you normally only see it on defenders. And what makes it even more efficient is because Real Madrid are always the weaker side, so they do need to play with an all or nothing approach that Benzema thrives on.
Henry was a master practitioner. His analysis is priceless!

Funny you should say that, I'm thinking I cant belive these lot are getting paid for this
Wow! Henry is insane. I can't believe how much technical knowledge he brought to this analysis.
I didn't want anyone else to interject, Henry's thoughts on it were just entrancing.
Lmfao trolling
thats why he did so well at monica
Henry was so insanely talented as a player that he often made things look almost too easy, but that sometimes obscured how smart a player he was. Great team player as well.
lol, can't believe that people think that analysis is complicated, dafuk, it's like 60 IQ. wake up
Everytime Henry speaks...it's Masterclass.
I prefer the other two guys. Henry is dull with the French accent. A bit pompous.
Lmfaoooo stop trolling
@@mm6461 show me a French that’s not dull. Show me a European with a personality and I’ll show you a fucking alien with 1000000 legs.
Absolute master class guy could make anything sound good
Henry’s highlight real is insane-he could score from anywhere. Cool to hear him break things down from the studio.
When Henry makes analyzing soccer something reserving for intellectuals...
Football you mean
french touch
I assume he litteraly speaks in english what his mind thinking in french.
Did you just said soccer?
It's football. Not soccer
Henry recognizes greatness. These are the words of someone who has found his heir as the most complete French striker of the moment. Henry too at his peak had that all-round ability which Benzema now displays (but Benzema better with headers).
I agree just Henry used to be a winger and had more dribbling
Please don't compare them henry was far better than benzema
@@babaibrahim9809 not stats wise

@@babaibrahim9809 better not bar better. Show some respect to madrid's third all time top scorer who played for 13 years. How many players last this long at madrid? This aint arsenal
This is the type of analysis i enjoy. Unlike the same old "blame the defenders crap". Sometimes we just need to give credit to some elite finishing.
Henry, has been in that spot so many times, that he notices and give us that little insight that we’ve know,subconsciously of course, but in a bigger light.
"The power is in the cross" absolutely, technically very good Henry
Lmfao troll
pure genius
He's speaking simple facts tho. That doesn't make him a ''pure genius''. I'm not downplaying him, because he's explaining what Benzema does well and not giving an analysis. But all of you probably have a ridiculously low football IQ to consider his knowledge about crosses and headers to be genius.
@@jotarokujo9587 On the other hand almost nobody scores headers so well as Benzema. That means its not so simple as you might think.
@@jotarokujo9587 The thing is i have never heard a commentator mentioning the path of the cross or the brushed effect like in tennis, that the striker is going to use to score, while it's a very important thing in football
For years, I have been saying that Karim Benzema’s greatest strength is that he keeps his head as he executes shots in the proper way. He carries out the fundamentals unemotionally. You rarely see him score outrageous goals. He is the quintessential “gets-the-job-done” man!
He has scored some outrageous goals too.
He scored infinite outrageous goals.
He does the job outrageously well though. That's the best thing about Karim.
@@krish4474 Oh, he definitely has scored outrageous goals!
@@ahmedzakikhan7639 He has scored some outrageous goals. But, as Henry says, his best trait is that he rarely fails to position his body properly to kick or head the ball as cleanly and as accurately as possible. That sort of thing is what I notice about him. Because of that, in the Champions League this season, his on-goal percentage is 64%. That is one telling indicator, IMO.
Great Analysis. Benzema has done enough already for the Balloon d'Or. Overshadowing Salah's performances by a lot right now
But if Liverpool win the champions league and Salah scores a few more goals by then, he should get it instead.
@@GuyLogen you are crazy ! Ballon d'or is not decide for the last games Benzema taking Madrid on his back all tournament he is CLEAR of Salah
@@abdAlMujib tbf if Liverpool win the quad then salah could get it
@@James-fe6km people like you should not have social media... Benzema is clear than Salah from any aspect Taking on his back the best club in the World in La Liga & UCL with crazy goals in clutch games all over the season Benzema is miles ahead from Salah
Salah was playing like the best player in the world in the 1st half of the season, but only if you have watched Liverpool games. His form has dropped after the Africa Cup and the world cup qualifier as he is burnt out. Benzema has great games in the UCL knockout stages which has more audience. But that is not enough to give him this year's Ballon d'or yet.
Henry should do more of these with different strikers and players.
What’s the meaning when he is saying that benzema make’s the team thick ? Or tic ? I don’t understand this word
I think he was saying "tick", as in to switch the team up, asking them to attack, press high, and at times, wake up.
Stop trolling
@@zak6982 he's saying he's the play maker (i think) He's coming short to pick the ball up, and then driving the play forward. The "tick" would be a metaphor for a beating heart, the blood flow that carries the human body. You remove the heart, the body collapses... if you remove benzema...
He is saying he makes chance for the team and angrsive attacker
Masterclass analysis, ranging from projectile motion, side spin and the rebound force and spin from deflection. Mostly importantly, he emphasize on the importance of not killing your own angle of goal scoring.
Lmfaoooo trolling
Love this analysis - great for young players to listen to and learn how to apply critical thinking to finishing
? Stop tripping. What analysis.
To be honest it's not even much of an analysis. It's more him showing what Benzema does well. He doesn't compare to other players or other solutions.
@@jotarokujo9587 he compared to Lukaku around 5:30 and he provided clear direction on how to use your body positioning (squaring your shoulder towards the goal). As some one who loves coaching, this video gave me enough insight to help any team I coach in the future to improve their goal scoring ability from headers.
@@callmemarvel298 Isn't that the only comparison though? It's not a big or good analysis but it's fine. It's not exactly a neutral analysis and evaluation of Benzema, but more of giving a reason What makes Benzema so lethal.
@@jotarokujo9587 ok so you were expecting a college level video essay sort of analysis, got it. Thanks for clarifying
Watching Modrić and Benzema playing at combined age of 72 is like watching two old Nobel-winning scientists educating the younger generations and giving them notice that a lot of work is ahead of them to reach that level.
That is true. Modric and Benzema are extremely experienced players. They decide the games.
So true
Henry when he analyzes makes you take notice. A pure delight when he discusses tactics.
? Troll
How tf did he discuss tactics. Tactics are something different from roles. He pretty much shows the details of Benzema's skill and his role in the squad as a target man and playmaker. Tactics ≠ roles
Sounded like he said a whole bunch of gibberish with obvious things mixed in
@@jotarokujo9587 😭😭😭😭
Short from a Ballon d'Or, Mr. Henry won everything as a player (WC, Euro, UCL, PL, La Liga, etc..., etc...) He knows a thing or two :)
He was robbed actually of one .

Got the 14th.
benzema has been grabbing the spot light , and hes a complete striker , he can link up play , he makes hes team tik , he creates and he presses
Watching him at Lyon playing alongside with Juninho was gold too.He was and still it is one of the greatest.
You know your history!
Il ressemblait à r9 à Lyon
Every striker and aspiring striker should watch this Henry analysis. Very good assessment here
I've never seen someone make such a sensation out of an attacker running into the open space. I love that about Thierry.
Henrys technical ability is unbelievable 😲 great analyst
“Technically, the power is in the cross” 🤯
Yeah that shit can blow your mind .. it's so obvious that we didn't even think about it... physics huh
Go tell Lukaku that hahah
Bro soon as he said that ? I was like “This man knows exactly what he is talking about “ 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I was so surprised, I was busy looking at Vini Jr , the defenders , Goal Keeper and Bezema alone
Henry was THE complete striker back then, so no wonder he can break Benzema’s game down. Real recognize real.
Henry 🐐
I love henry explanation. Simple, yet the analysis was so deep😲👍🏻
Damn! this guy is a genius... and for him to support the man over there "if u know u know" it means a lot...🔥🔥🔥🔥
Football is simple. It's all about space. When I used to play football in college and I was defending I never paid sole attention to the opposition player or the ball but the space. Closing down space, intercepting spaces so opposition can't find teammates, closing down channels that players would run into. If you can do that you can eventually find an oppurtunity to recover the ball. The idea is not to stick tight onto the player but close down the space between you and the player to limit movement.
well said! my experience is similar, but i've started up front as 9,5 like Benzema (haha) and later on after some injuries i started playing at the back and i can agree 100%. It's fascinating really that for example just by taking few steps up front/left/right, entire play can be changed. btw, if someone wants a proof of Benzema genius they should actually watch CR7 goals compilation, but have a closer look at Benzema's movement at the same time (if he doesnt provide assist ofc)
That's itself is the statement, play smart not hard.
Simple in premise but very difficult in practice. That's what makes it beautiful!
Fantastic insight. Something clicked in my brain reading this. I'll try to implement this when i play next time.
Harry Maguire
No doubt Benzama is best player in the world💥 A creative and prolific forward known for his playmaking and finishing, he is regarded as one of the best strikers of his generation.
@SALSEANTE 😆😆
Literally copy pasted off Wikipedia
"The power is in the cross." This emphasises how important an assist is! And just how good a sticker has to be to know that the ball needs guidance not force and the skill to execute that isn't that simple.
Henry is so great with his analysis
Quel joueur et quel connaissance du foot !!! Merci Thierry 🇫🇷
il me régale !
Absolutely love Henry's technically detailed yet simple explanation of Benzema's qualities. Great if you're a young player or coach.
Love this analysis by Henry and companies! Please post more.💕💕💕
Wooow….Thierry, what a master class analysis. Damn, there are levels to football, thought I knew enough, after this I’m an infant
It is sincerely nice to listen to Tierry speak, his analyzes are a demonstration of knowledge linked to a solid experience, when he speaks he knows what he says and why things happen, and he has a clear language that makes it understandable to everyone.
This is a great channel. I love the analysis. Also, the highlights of each match are perfect.
Legendary analysis. I’ve learned so many things
Thierry Henry the Arsenal and Barca legend
Arsenal legend. Not a barca legend. He was good at barca for 2 and s half season. Maybe 3.
Thierry Henry is a phenomenal orator and analyzer of the beautiful game. He composes his sentences the way you would expect from someone whose first language is a romance language. And I for one, am a huge fan of that. His accent is awesome, his syntax is refreshingly unique. And his evaluation of soccer (football) is very detailed and accurate. He is a great addition to this panel of experts, and I hope he sticks around for a long time.
WOW the way Henry describes the moves! amazing
Henry's analysis is legendary
Great analysis from a great former player ! When he was still active, I compared Thierry to Johann Cruyff, and that is a HUGE compliment !!!
I can listen to Terry Henry analyzing forever.. love you legend ❤
His analysis is so good. Everything he said is spot on may be one of the best striker analyzer
he has already won the ballon dor 2022
Don't forget what happens in a 7 game world cup year
@@adrianluke7909 its by seasons now not by year

Some British ex players feel Harry Kane is level wit him without playing against other European top four team... Scoring against Newcastle.. Burnley wouldn't make same level wit him..

Great analysis. spin of the ball, not killing yr own angle when making a run to the box, shoulders positioning, etc. Such awareness is outstanding from TH.
After Hearing someone with this Kind of Legacy and Knowledge, That Henry has, talk about Karim - I just realised eben more how Good he actually become year by year
I'm very impressed by Thierry Henry as an analyst and I agree with him that Benzema is a complete player. I think what makes Benzema great is his ball instincts and great positioning/anticipation of the cross.
GREAT ANALYSIS BY HENRY. HE WAS ON POINT THERE--these types of people help give you a deeper insight of things that even if you had seen what happened before when they provide you with the analysis, they give you a further look into the issue in particular
Well done Thiery👍 One of the best analysis I witnessed! Absolutely perfect performance Thiery👍👍
Henry, this is an analyses which would not come up unless the speaker himself is an iconic real striker. Thank you for such a rich simplification. RESPECT.
Henry is a legendary player and tremendous analyzer.
Henry you where also complete, one of my favorites all time striker
Wonderful analysis. True mark of a great player. Henry!
I really enjoyed this video from start to finish, very classy show.
Benzema is on fire this season, Just when i thought he couldn't improve any more at 34! He has been phenomenal
I'm here for Kate Abdo...but the analysis is cool too.
First off all, quit simping. Second of all, I'm going to need you all to get your standards higher because she's literally just an average female. With legends like Thierry Henry, Peter Schmeichel and Jamie Carragher, who's even looking at Kate?...
@@a-manthe9 I could hardly pay attention to Henry with Kate there 😂
this show is pretty good. the way they analyze the plays and the way the greats give their perspective.
What ever jimmy says will always sound rational and right no matter what he says its just the passion and the way he speaks. ❤️👏🏼
Absolutely. The world of soccer is a better place seeing how Henry breaks down how to be the "complete" striker. Benzema IS the TOP now!
What a great analysis from the great man.
I agree Jamie Carragher was excellent.
Vincius junior is the one who makes benzema lethal the chaos created by vj sets up the stage for benzema..
Henry's analysis in these 7 minutes here is more compelling than ANY of the FOX Commentators' for World Cup and related games Henry = world-class player; Arsenal & France All-Time record goal scorer Henry = superb analyst. Spot on with everything he's saying...yes, his brain knows what's going on SO much, it's hard for his words to keep up
Jesus the female announcer is so jaw dropping beautiful her hair her outfit and toenails and feet in full display what a women
@Dracula Tepes ive seen the after game reports so many times but today she was totally stealing the show
That's why she's there in the first place,to please people's eyes
My favorite of all Time TH
Very precise and relevant analysis! But we can see that how their analysis are illustrated with the videos show that they have perfectly prepared their analysis and presentation (which is ok by the way but their are not spontaneous), the questions and the consultants know what they have to say and when they have to say it with the videos to support & illustrate their arguments.
Its been a while but Henry really has my respect He talks football His analysis is on point
Incredible Benzema , what a player he is . Can’t wait to see him play against city .
I'm so happy that Benzema is back with the French national team. He has changed so much from the spoiled, arrogant, unsufferable brat he was years ago. Now the guy is so humble, so genuine, just so sincere that it is just impossible to hate him.
He never was like that though.
@@alfredodistefanolaulhe2212 agree
You don’t know nothing about Benzema if you think he was like that.
Lol he was never liked that
You fell for the french press racist propaganda. It was a campaign to discredit him because conservative French elite thought they could go far without their non-white colonial players.
Love how Thierry Henry analyzer the game!!!!! his a genius 👏👏👏
Wow please keep these kinds of videos coming !
When Perez said "Benzema is a mixture of Zidane and Ronaldo".....everybody laughed it off . I wonder if they are still laughing
Top class analysis of a top player. Well done Henry. Well done Benzema.
He understand the game. I really admire him always positive on players.
A fantastic analysis. Well done Henry,
i always thought benzema was a really good striker getting better every and every year and for some years he was kinda shadowed by Ronaldo, what a great player he deserves it
Pple keep forgetting Henry was one of the best striker in his prime. 2nd world best player behind Ronaldinho. Pure class.
His English has really improved, it's getting easier to understand his analysis now, though sometimes it's still difficult to comprehend him. Jamie Carragher I mean.
Henry is perfect when he analysis i loved it.
Henry gave the accurate analysis of the goal when Carragher asked the question
Benzma is the best sticker for 2022
Great compliments from great players to a great man !
Such a greath depth of analysis. A great player recognises another great player 🙌🙌
Benzema's ascension must be partly credited to Ancelatti. I think he knows how to get the best out of his number 9. Same way he took a subpar Everton and made their number nine have big impact propelling the team towards the top of premier league
Exactly. He be told him: do not take more than two touches whenever you get the ball because that's what defines a great striker from an average one. - Calvert Lewin said so.
@@oluwaogundiran i think he said something similar to Vinicius
benzama was so good at lyon watch for yourself
he was better at lyon
He's been exceptional for a long time but I think the current coach plays to his strengths and also helps him be even better
Henry should have analysed himself on why he always disappeared in big games and never scored one single goal in any final (except a barely knee touch against Cameroon in confederations cup).
Damn!🤣😭
That was great demonstration from MISTER Henry (our Henry as french 😀).
Tbh I don’t usually like listening to Henry analysing games but his analysis of a Benzema was spot on. Shows you when you analyse something you understand you usually nail it.
Such Class Henry!
Henry is king
Eric is king
henry perfect explanation, daaaannggg!!!
Henry is a massive addict to the game, he knows about the so important details because his mind as been trained for that for 40 years. Same as for Benzema with a different set of skills
Henry never expect Real to be in the finals. So Benzema has become a case to study…
He's Better than English Pundits 🤣
💯 best analysis from a striker legend 👑
Perfect analysis!!!
