UCL: Thierry Henry reveals current Arsenal forward he would have loved to play with

Arsenal legend, Thierry Henry has said he would have loved to play with Gabriel Jesus.

Henry, speaking after the Gunners' 2-1 win over Sevilla in the Champions League on Tuesday, hailed Jesus' "overall contribution" to the team makes up for his lack of goals.

The Brazilian set-up Gabriel Martinelli to open the scoring, before curling home a sublime second against the LaLiga side.

"I will be honest with you, and I think, for example, and it's a massive example and a massive thing - I'd have loved to have played with him.

"He's a great guy to have around, I'm sure if you ask anyone they'd love to play with him.

"Is he a guy who is going to score you 25, 30 [goals]? I don't know, I'd like to think so.

"But the goal he scored tonight won the game, that pass [to Martinelli] won the game. And yes, earlier I was talking about the all-round play but those two opportunities were magnificent, that's exactly how you should play," Henry told CBS Sports.
