Thierry Henry came off the bench to enhance his Arsenal legend as the veteran French striker fired the Gunners into the fourth round of the FA Cup with a 1-0 win over Leeds at the Emirates Stadium.
Arsenal’s record goalscorer had rejoined the club he left for Barcelona in 2007 on a short-term loan deal from New York Red Bulls and did not disappoint when he slotted home on 78 minutes to finally break the resistance of the npower Championship club.
Henry, 34, is available for a six-week spell which will take in matches against Manchester United, AC Milan in the Champions League and possibly even the showdown with arch-rivals Tottenham on February 26.
And given this 20-minute cameo masterclass, that could just be the spark Arsenal need to push on towards a successful end to a season which started so badly.
