Wenger: Henry the best

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger admitted Thierry Henry would be almost irreplaceable after the striker destroyed Aston Villa.

Henry scored two superb goals in a 5-0 win and tormented the visitors until he was substituted midway through the second half as Wenger began to prepare for Wednesday's Champions League quarter-final second leg against Juventus.

"If you asked me to buy a better player, I would have a big problem," admitted Wenger. "He is the best."
