Thierry Henry Tops List Of Greatest Ever Premier League Players

Arsenal legend Thierry Henry claimed the accolade for the greatest ever Premier League player since the start of the English professional league in 1992 courtesy of a football fan survey conducted by Betfair.

The survey asked more than 1,000 football fans to express their views on who they thought has been the best-ever player ahead of the big kick-off this weekend – which will represent the Premier League’s 30th anniversary.

Henry who scored 275 league goals for Arsenal earned 15 per cent of the vote ahead of five-time Ballon d’Or winner, Cristiano Ronaldo and Newcastle icon, Alan Shearer.

Henry who has been in Nigeria for promotional purposes a few times is affectionately called ‘Igwe’ by his adoring Nigerian fans.

The fourth place was picked by Manchester United’s eccentric star Eric Cantona while current Aston Villa – and Liverpool legend – Steven Gerrard was fifth in the survey.

Shearer remains the the Premier League’s highest goal scorer with 360 goals.
