Thierry Henry speaks on Monaco loss

Former Arsenal striker Thierry Henry is not all sad about his defeat in his first game as the manager of French side Monaco.

The Henry team lost by 2 – 1 to Strasbourg on Saturday and it has got a lot of people talking on if the former Barcelona forward can turn things around.
