Arsenal Quote by Martin Kemp
“There was a moment when Thierry Henry returned to Arsenal for a game against Leeds, and the whole of the ground was waiting for him to come on. He came on and he scored. And he went right down the pitch, and jumped into Arsene Wenger's arms. At that moment I was bawling my eyes out. I could see how much it meant to him.”
