Legendary Gunners striker says that the Frenchman's achievements will only be fully recognised after he leaves, and doubts whether the club would be able to find a better manager

New York Red Bulls striker Thierry Henry thinks that Arsene Wenger's contribution to Arsenalis still under-appreciated.

The French manager found himself under pressure during the early stages of the season following the sale of Cesc Fabregas and Samir Nasri and a poor Premier League start.

But former Gunners forward Henry, the club's all-time leading goalscorer, maintains that there is no better man for the job.

"The day he stops, quite a lot of people will realise what he's done for the club," Henry toldThe Sun.

"It's always easy to criticise but can you find better than Wenger?

"It hasn't been easy for Arsene. I hope with all my heart that we'll win a trophy.

"The two Manchester clubs will make it difficult but, once again, let's not forget what Arsene has done for Arsenal.

"It's always easy to judge on the spur of the moment in football, that's the way it is."

Henry admitted that he still felt attached to Arsenal despite having now spent five seasons away from London, having moved to Barcelona before making the switch to Major League Soccer.

"Arsenal play good football and I've become a Gunners supporter for life," he said.

"Something happened between me and the fans that I'll never forget."
