Thierry Henry made his debut as a pundit on Sky Sports Super Sunday today.
The Arsenal legend was watching his former team take on Manchester City after covering West Ham United against Hull City in the earlier game.
Henry had a mixed reaction to his new gig. There was some criticism when he said Hull’s Sunny Aluko should have dived after receiving contact in the penalty area from James Tomkins. Some were bored by Sky’s new pundit signing, others liked his contribution and most agreed he was, somehow, Arsenal’s lucky charm.
Game day baby. Game day. @SkyFootball @skysports_ed #GraemeSouness pic.twitter.com/0VswfOHJ2z

Thierry Henry's semi-incredulous frown a highlight of his Sky debut thus far.

One of Thierry Henry's first remarks as a pundit on Sky: "Arsenal are missing a big piece. A Vieira… That's no attack on anyone." #AFC

Thierry Henry blatantly recommending cheating there, telling Oluko to dive. He doesn't help himself does he? @SkySportsNewsHQ @Carra23

Just because Thierry Henry was 1 of the best players that's played in the premier league doesn't mean I want to listen to him everyweek!!
