Robert Pires insists that Thierry Henry is ready to be a Premier League manager

Thierry Henry’s former team mate Pires has expressed his confidence in the 40-year-old’s managerial skills.

Henry acted as an assistant to Belgium boss Roberto Martinez at the World Cup helping them finish third in the tournament. Their best ever finish in the competition.

Thierry Henry has gone on to quit his role as a pundit for Sky Sports and is now looking for a managerial role after saying via twitter that being part of the Belgium set-up had made him ‘more determined’ to fulfill his ‘long term ambition to become a football manager’.

When asked if he thought Henry would make a good manager Pires replied saying:

“Of course. I hope and I wish for Thierry. I’m very happy he left Sky. I sent him a message yesterday saying, ‘Finally, you left’. Not because he’s not a good pundit but I know Thierry.”

When asked where Arsenal’s all time highest goal scorer should first look for a job he added:

“The UK. He loves the Premier League, for the spirit, the competition, the big, big clubs.”

Pires also added that Henry was very influential in the Belgian side especially in helping players find their bearing:

‘During the World Cup he was assistant to Roberto Martinez and did very well. If you ask all the Belgian players, all of them, especially (Romelu) Lukaku, they say they learned from Thierry every day.

‘Steven Gerrard and Thierry (going into management) is good news for football. We need some new faces on the bench.

‘I don’t know if they’ll make a success, but these guys they have their badges, it’s very important they’re given an opportunity.’
