Henry will come out ‘second best’ again

YOURI DJORKAEFF has warned Thierry Henry he will again have to settle for second best today after believing his close friend should have been named World Footballer of the Year this week.

Henry was beaten to the award by compatriot Zinedine Zidane but Djorkaeff was left stunned the Arsenal striker was not crowned the game's top star.

Henry and his Gunners team-mates now head to the Reebok Stadium, where Wanderers boss Sam Allardyce reckons Arsenal psychologically lost the Premiership title last season.
