He definatley scored at least 2 or 3 in France 98.
I think perhaps in he's early Arsenal days he had that reputation, of bottling it in big occcasions. But he certainly has shaken that now. I remember a few good goals against Chelsea when it mattered, but he certainly plays well especally this season when he has seems to of come of age in the big hampions league games.
People also said this about Gerrard last season, mostly when we came up against Chelsea, but everytime we have beaten them he has been key. Him along with Garcia are Liverpools big game players.
Some also commented about Henry's excellent work rate, but I have a mate who regularly goes to the Arsenal games, but he said to that he gets a lot of stick from the Arsenal fans for his lack of work rate funny enough.
I stand corrected, he scored two in the group stages, one game was already won and I think they'd already qualified when he scored the other. He failed to score in the knock outs and missed a few chances against Croatia in the semi.
Definate choker.
