Henry unable to perform at his best
Robert Pires, who also plays in Spain for Villarreal, has revealed how Thierry Henry is miserable and unable to perform at his best because he also cannot see his two-year-old daughter Tea.
Henry has so far failed to score a single goal in the Spanish league, although he broke his duck for the club with Barcelona's simple third goal in last night's 3-0 defeat of Lyon.
And he has poured his heart out to Pires, blaming the turmoil of his marriage break-up.
Pires said: “Everyone knows what Henry is like. He is a star.
“What’s happening is that when you change leagues and move country you need time to adapt. I think he’s finding it hard.
“He also has the problem of his divorce and is being affected by it.
