Thierry Henry faces late test on his knee

6 May 2009


Thierry Henry faces a fitness test today to see if he will be fit to start against Chelsea. The French international's hopes were lifted after training with the rest of his team-mates last night after he injured a knee in the 6-2 win over Real Madrid at the weekend.

The Catalans have already lost the services of central defender Rafael Marquez through injury and Carles Puyol, who is suspended.

However, Barcelona boss Pep Guardiola is confident they will cope.

"Whoever plays in their place will do a great job," he said.

chelsea is going to win regardless. They have homefield advantage, and for Barcelona, Puyol, Marquez, and maybe henry are not playing. As for that 5'5 cunt Messi, he has never scored against any english team.
