Aston Villa Hire Premier League Legend Thierry Henry
Approximately two years after Thierry Henry's retirement, he has stuck to his word
and finally taken on a managerial position in the English Premier League.
It is believed that Henry was interviewed for the job last week and was confirmed
as the Birmingham-based club's new manager today. The Frenchman was elegant
during his press conference and most certainly very 'va va voom'.
The new boss hinted that he may bring in a few of his own staff members within
the next few weeks.
Aston Villa finished 15th at the end of last season, only a mere 6 points above
the relegation zone before Paul Lambert left for Fulham.
This year, Villa are predicted to finish 14th.
The current Aston Villa squad consists of:
GOALKEEPERS: Brad Guzan, Shay Given, Jed Steer.
RIGHT BACKS: Matt Lowton.
CENTER BACKS: Ryan Shotton, Joshua Webb, Nathan Baker, Ron Vlaar, Johan Djourou.
LEFT BACKS: Antonio Luna, Adriano.
CENTRAL MIDFIELDERS: Cabral, Mile Jedinak, James Wallace, Ashley Westwood, Liam Trotter.
ATTACKING MIDFIELDERS: Yossi Benayoun, Aleksandar Tonev, Charles N'Zogbia.
STRIKERS: Gabby Agbonlahor, Nicklas Helenius, Darren Bent, Libor Kozak.
It is anticipated that Thierry Henry will have to get the best out of the wide
range of strikers he has at his disposal.
Will Thierry Henry succeed in his first management job? We'll just have to wait and see.
