..this week. A strong piece on the Foe match that raised money for his kids. It was really touching to see Henry, Pires, and Wiltord all so visibly moved when the announcement was made prior to their Confed. Cup semi that he had, in fact, passed away. They showed Henry scoring the first goal of the match and pointing skyward, and all the French players mobbed him and did likewise.
this is the second week in a row Henry had figured prominently on "FM". His interview also got me thinking how great it is that AW requires all of his players to do interviews in English. I think that fact alone makes Arsenal a class act. I can't tell you how many times I've seen an international player in the Prem interviewed and they don't speak English. It seems to me that AW's "English Rule" just shows so much respect for the Premiership and what it means to play in England.
OK, no more AW campaigning today.
Definetly roll tape (or Tivo) on "FM' this week, though.
