Give Andres Iniesta the ball and he turns into Superman, says Thierry Henry

Thierry Henry has come up with a pretty glowing tribute to Andres Iniesta as the midfielder prepares to leave Barcelona at the end of the season.

The two played together at the Camp Nou and Henry has talked about his former team-mate and how he turns into Superman when he’s in possession of a football.

“Andres is the guy who, first and foremost, does his talking with the ball. He’s not very vocal off the field, you won’t see a lot of interviews with him, but when he has the ball he can talk for days.
