Henry enjoyed the best years of his illustrious career playing under Wenger at Arsenal, winning two Premier League titles and just missing out on the Champions League.
Gunners supporters were disappointed the club's all-time leading goalscorer wasn't present for Wenger's final game at the Emirates last week, due to having to fulfill contractual obligations with his employers Sky Sports.
But Henry has since paid tribute to the legendary boss in an emotional interview, and admitted he wished he had a better relationship with him when he was a player at the club.
"Unfortunately what you don't see is the amount of hours that he puts on the field and his office to make sure that team can perform," Henry told ="https://www.facebook.com/Arsenal/videos/10155987827007713/">Arsenal.com.<

"I know it's a cliche thing, work and stuff, but listen: I can testify because I'm just starting. It's hard to be a coach.
"I was a pain in the neck. Just imagine if you multiply that by the whole squad. It's what you guys don't see. That's very difficult.
"I know people will tell me he has an amazing contract. That doesn't mean he's not a human being, that doesn't mean he doesn't have feelings, that doesn't mean he doesn't go through emotion.
"I went to see him doing an interview and I asked him how he was.
"He went 'I'm OK, we lost the other day' and I said 'no, I'm not talking about the game'.
"I said 'how are you?'. I felt bad because as a player I never went to his office to ask him how he was because I didn't care. Nobody does care.
"The fans do not care about the well-being of the coach. You don't, you go there, 'why didn't I play? Why am I playing on the left?'
"The fans 'why is he playing there?' The press 'why this, why that?’. Everything points at the boss. For that, you deserve a trophy."
