Henry Enjoys Benzema Link Up

Thierry Henry has dropped a huge hint that he believes Karim Benzema would fit in well at Barcelona after stating that he had a great understanding with the Lyon forward.

The pair played together in the French team's friendly win against Colombia in midweek and the former Arsenal player was delighted with the way they gelled.

Barcelona have targeted Benzema this summer and are keen to make him their fifth and final new arrival after Gerard Piqué, Seydou Keita, Martín Cáceres and Dani Alves, and Henry would be be delighted if he moved.

"I noticed that between myself, Benzema and Ribéry there was a good understanding. We have combined well and created chances," the former Arsenal star said.

Benzema returned the compliments and said that he also felt comfortable alongside the two stars and believes that it is not difficult to raise your game in such exalted company.

"With Ribéry and Henry I have struck up an understanding and we did well going forward. They are great players and that makes it easier," he added.

Henry made his 100th appearance for France in the game and admitted that he had to work very hard to make it to the century.

"It is a marvellous thing, a reward for all my hard work. I do not think there are many forwards in the big national teams that have reached this figure," he explained.

Finally, Henry said that he understood that there were a few whistles for him after he failed to score and believes that a goal would quickly win the doubters back over.

"That has happened to me before and I know what can happen if you miss chances. When I have then played in games and scored everything changes," he concluded.
