Misfiring Gunners recall goal king Henry

ARSENE WENGER has rushed Thierry Henry back from injury to boost morale for Arsenal’s Champions League clash at Sparta Prague, admitting his costly absence had damaged his side’s title bid.

Henry has not played at all since France's World Cup qualifier against the Republic of Ireland on September 7, when he came off due to the effects on an inflamed groin.

Indeed, he has not appeared for Arsenal for almost two months, since facing Fulham on August 24, and has not even played for the reserves to boost his fitness levels.
