MLS rumors just posted a blog entry where they mention that tribalfootball.com is reporting that the Galaxy have already made a lucrative offer to Thierry Henry. www.tribalfootball.com/article.php?id=94008They don't mention any sources so I would assume this is false in the first place. But these stories aren't rumors for nothing...so it might be true. Also said to be in the mix is Seattle, which has been speculated as the top destination for Henry. Any thoughts?

there is NO reason for Henry to go to LA with to many other big names there. If he comes to MLS he want's to be THE STAR, not share the spot light. Thats why I say come to Houston my friend.

perhaps. But would the front office do it? Considering how inactive they were last offseason. OR they used up almost no DP slots and didn't sign any one just so they could have cap space for Henry. Houston may or may not have a shot. I say its going to be Seattle. They atmosphere there is just what Henry needs. Besides, I agree with you, he would not go to the galaxy and would the MLS even allow that? I think diversifying your star players throughout the league is better for the league anyway. But I will still welcome Henry to any MLS team.

I completely agree, I would love you see him here, but the only issue is trying to convience him to take a MASSIVE pay cut.

Thats the thing. Would he do it? I think he would, since he seems to like the US.

He will come to seattle. I mean sometimes he doesn't start for Barq so he wants to be a star agian. So that rules out Galaxy like you guys said, so Seattle seems the next choice

Do you believe he would come at the start of next season? or play out a couple of season in Europe.

But didn't he say he will leave Barca? He is 30 and clubs will still pay money for him, but I just don't see it happening. Maybe we he is 31 or 32

I don't know, its all up to him. Its either:
* Taking the big pay cut and signing with someone, and ultimately help the league grow?
OR
* Playing his out his contract in Barcelona and then moving to the MLS. Which by then he will be somewhere around 33.
