Henry definitely. But that does not mean that I'm not sad that Cesc has gone.

As a player, losing Henry hurt more.
As a sitution, hands down it's Fabregas. Still yet to hit his peak and with far less players left at the Emirates for us to now put our faith upon.
I know Peterbaey, it was very sad. I hope to bring more tears with the story coming up
Henry without a doubt. That was true heartbreak.
And I'm very much in the minority with you.

Cesc is not worthy of even a single tear of mine. Henry leaving made me cry buckets. Cesc has only left me angry and bitter.
Cesc. Yea Peter I think the way Bobby left us was a tragedy. He deserved so much better.
Henry for me. I think because he said after Barca beat us in the Champions League final and he came out with this whole shpeil about how he'd never move there, loved Arsenal etc etc etc. A few weeks later he was gone.
Amaury Bishoff his transfer still make me
A few weeks later? Try a year.
Henry without a doubt. But I shed a tear the day Dennis retired!
Nothing more to add - names says it all
Players come and go from club to club, thats just what happens. How did we get the likes of Nasri, Cesc, Henry, Pires etc etc.
What gets me is the way these players seem to go about getting their transfers to the club of their "dreams".
Henry was bleating on about Barca for over a year, he wanted to join the best team in the world to be part of a winning team. Little_Red_Gunner is right, Henry did say after the CL final that he couldn't leave a team who had played so well with 10 men for so long against a team like Barca (Henry might actually won the trophy for us but for that miss). He then "committed" himself to the team, only to be out for the last few months of his final season then off to Barca.
Cesc has always said Barca is the team of his dreams, well why leave in the first place???? Oh thats right, couldn't see himself getting any further than the bench, Arsene finds him, nurtures him, gives him the captains armband (lord knows why, maybe to try to keep him at the club, a pride thing maybe??) Then he starts banging on about not winning trophies and wants to play for Barca. Wenger then calls him before the world cup in what Cesc describes as "the greatest conversation of his life" I describe it as "play one more season for me, I need to get Wilshire experience then you can go but only for £40m" All this after signing a 7 year contract with a clause stating £1m payment for every year remaining on the contract if he is "sold" Nice terms if you can get them.
Nasri, what can I say about this fella??? Has 5 strong months in 3 years then wants to join out second XI in Manchester, along with Clichy, Adebayor and Toure. Wants to play week in week out and win everything with them no doubt - Good luck Samir.
Clichy, As above really but yet to see him put 2 good performances in a row. I do hope that being left on the bench in the Charity Shield isn't a sign of things to come for you Gael.
The fact is I could go on and on. Players are really only joining us to make a name for themselves now, lets be brutally honest we wont win the EPL or anything else. We have too young a squad, not enough quality in key areas and those who do well for us go elsewhere and sit on the bench, that tells me they are above average but shine in a pretty poor bunch overall.
Dont be angry or bitter, let these boys follow their dreams, let them sit on the bench thinking this wasn't meant to happen, taking their massive salaries. There will be others, but they will no doubt do exactly the same and then they will be replaced.
I hear the trophy cabinet is being replaced with a much larger ego cabinet, we should have the best one in the league.

Thanks for making me laugh on this screwed up day.
What hurt YOU more, Henry or Cesc?

I don't see how sticking around and wasting their careers playing for a lying loser like Wenger could be a good thing for those two players. They deserve/deserved better than that. I have no doubt that like Henry, Fabregas has made the right choice opting to play
for Barca as opposed to continuing to participate in Wenger's long standing failure of an experiment !
Henry because he was our greatest player, but he was coming towards the end of his career, and wanted the CL, so it was understandable.
Cesc's departure came too early. In fact 4 yrs too early. But at the same time I'm happy this saga has ended.
We had our brightest season after Henry left.
But with Cesc, I think this will be our darkest. I'm really upset over his departure becuase he was the best in his positiin in the world. But he has left for trophies. Its not about money for him. Plus he can actually become the best there.
