Thierry Henry has added a special "something" to the Arsenal dressing room according to Gunners full back Kieran Gibbs.
The Frenchman is back at the Emirates on a two-month loan stint from New York Red Bulls and announced his return in style by scoring the winning goal in Monday’s 1-0 win over Leeds United in the FA Cup.
But it is not just on the pitch that Henry is making a difference, but on it too, as morale in the Arsenal camp skyrockets.
"When I was a young boy I used to watch him, so it was pretty amazing [to see Henry score against Leeds]", said Gibbs to his club’s official site.
"I never got to meet him before, but he has come back and shown what a true legend he is.
"He has added something to the dressing room, not just on the pitch.
"We know he can’t play every game, but his personality has come in and lifted the whole changing room.
"It is a pleasure to have him in the squad again."
