    Henry available for Barca-Real 'clasico'

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>MADRID (AFP) - Barcelona's French striker Thierry Henry will be available for the weekend match with arch-rivals Real Madrid after almost four weeks out injured, the club said Thursday.

    The player "received the green light from doctors and could be one of the big new names on the list" for the first so-called 'clasico' match of the season, Barcelona said on their website.

    "The therapy done to improve his discopathy has achieved the desired results," the statement added.

    Henry stopped training on November 25 after suffering a lower back injury.

    The 30-year-old, who joined Barca from English Premiership side Arsenal during the summer, has scored five goals in the Spanish league and two in the Champions League this season.

    League leaders Real travel to second-placed Barcelona on Sunday.</div>

    He never got in the game. But even if he did he wouldn't have been the difference.

    I saw the whole game and was rooting for Real to win. Barca had a couple of good chances but could never pass Madrid's defense.

    Real Madrid are now 7 points ahead of Barcelona in La Liga. (spanish league)

    Looks like Wenger has once again made a brilliant move by Getting rid of the Ageing and rather useless Henry.
