Thierry Henry has tipped Arsenal to do the double this season. Henry feels Arsenal are capable of doing both the Premiership and Champions League. Arsenal have only dropped two points all season and the Gunners have made a flying start to their European campaign.
"Me and Arsene have been in contact a few times since I left. I always talk to him because even with the difference of age, the bond and respect is there," Henry said.
"It is tremendous that he has signed a new contract. He has great eyes and just has a talent for spotting young talent. He is a great human being as well and that's what makes the difference. He makes players feel comfortable and always gets the best out of them."
Henry wishes to say a final farewell to the Gunners fans, many of whom were distraught at his exit.
"I think I will try and do it in December because we have a winter break in Spain and I will have the time," Henry added.
"I would rather go back in a non-playing situation and be able to enjoy it. I don't want to get drawn against Arsenal in the Champions League this season. That would not be a proper way to say goodbye to the fans.
"When I go, I will probably just sit in the stands. I won't walk out on the pitch or anything like that.
"The focus should be on the team and I don't want to draw any attention away from them and what they're doing. They will be playing a game and I want to respect that."
