Hi,

I don't know what's wrong between the journalists in general and Thierry Henry .

When he played in the National French team he was considered as a champion and indeed he was excellent and the comments concerning his performance were very good.

Now reading your article and remembering previous tough comments during last World cup in South Africa I find that he was right to leave France taking into account the context he was involved at that time . Your comments are very sarcastic . Why do you needto write this way about him ?  After all there are other good footballers in other clubs who could have their chance too?

I don't know much about football but I remembered a comment during the Olympics about an Algerian long distance runner. This athlete couldn't trained in Algeria at that time because of islamic threats but she courageously went to the Olympics to represent her sports and her country .... And the french journalist who made his comments was just ... I can't find my words to say how despising his comments were. I felt angry and hurt knowing how hard it was for women in this country at that time .

He never mentioned the political context this young lady had to overcome .

 

So please! Just be fair !

Thank you
