At their peak who was better?

Talk about a "No contest." Another example of overstating the ability of an Englishman. Shearer was a great striker no doubt. Thing is Henry was a great striker AND a majestic footballer. Shearer impressed a nation, Henry ruled the world.
That said though, which to pick for a dream team or our teams now if we could. Depends on the team you support and the dream team you'd pick moreso than who is the better player. Shearer's ideal team looks poles apart from Henry's.

Nicely timed to demonstrate Edin. The greatest Spurs team would have been brilliant for Shearer, as the greatest Arsenal team for Henry. Not so sure it works for them swapped though.

** I know Henry could slot into today's Spurs team successfully but I'm not considering that your best ever team. They've just had the recent success. Not sure what your verdict is on that though.

Henry by a mile but Sheared was also outstanding at his best.

Henry, no contest. Shearer had the longevity though, still a top player don't get me wrong.
