New York Red Bulls superstar Thierry Henry announced on Monday he has played his final game for the Red Bulls and will not be returning in 2015.
Whatever you decide to do, cheers to you, Thierry Henry.
After four and a half years, the French superstar leaves MLS as the league's 36th most prolific goalscorer of all-time and 14th in assists provided.
As is only right for someone of Henry's stature and immense pedigree, everyone from fans, friends, media members, teammates and foes took a moment to say "#ThanksTH14."
Thierry Henry is the kind of talent that comes along once in a generation. It was a pleasure to watch him in the shirt. #ThanksTH14
