There was another on where the goalie went to throw the ball out and they put their head in the way of it so the goalie threw the ball at the players head which then left the player with the ball at his feet and an open goal!

and why? Oh yes because it's against the rules.

Innovation in the modern game then, because we're reaching a point where not many players are trying things like this.
In fact, I'd say Henry is pretty much the only player in the modern game (in the Prem at least) to be doing so, with his free kicks and this.

innovation?!

Its the second time he's done it! And it was done years ago by best anyway!

I find it comical that you people cry and whine and complain and moan and rant and rave when a player attempts to bring some creativity and innovation into the game.

You idiots.

Don't know why he tried it again after the Blackburn incident, he knows full well that it's not allowed otherwise we'd have players surrounding the keeper everytime he picks up the ball stopping him from releasing it

Nay, he kicked the ball when the goalie threw it up again and passed it into the goal. Not given mind.

No, he was clearly taken out. Unlucky not to get another as well.

And whoever it was is right, Henry totally played for the penalty, was pretty much over when the goalie touched him. But I guess the ref has to give it purely for the fact the goalie made contact with only Henry.

Aaaaa, jealousy :)

That's unlucky. For him, only.

He can't even buy a goal these days!
