They hit the nail on the head by stressing the point that Henry isn’t excessively fancy… he just has fantastic control, decision-making, and power. His ability to dribble and control the ball without having to rely on dramatic fakes or tricks not only makes him look like he is a man amongst boys but it often leaves him in the position to make the perfect pass or take a crack at the net.

What is so impressive about TH14 is his brilliance with the ball to get into a scoring position or to create a scoring opportunity for his teammates. Sometimes I am convinced he has a string attached to the ball and can do whatever the hell he wants with it.
