Under appreciated by young fans?(under 20 or so)

I’ve noticed some young (Ronaldo) fans who call Henry a “Pace Merchant” or that he only had pace and was a average striker etc… usually between the ages of 10-13/14

Is Thierry Henry becoming under rated recently? Or is this just noise from CR7 or Tottenham Fanboys.

    United fan since mid 90s and even though I hated him because he was in Arsenal, it was an absolute joy to watch him play… very few football players have a legacy that plays through generations and across the world… Pele, Maradona, Messi, Ronaldo, Ronaldo, Zidane and maybe 8-10 more that I’m too lazy to type here… beyond them, the other players will have a legacy that carries on within their clubs and some others that last through the generation of fans that watched them and that’s it. You can’t get upset because some kids who’ve been watching the game for five years don’t appreciate sometime that they didn’t even watch playing
