Thierry Henry on Vieira reunion in Monaco vs Nice derby: 'We're not going to like each other!'

Thierry Henry says he and former Arsenal team-mate Patrick Vieira "are not going to like each other" when they meet as managerial adversaries for the first time.

Henry and Vieira, part of Arsenal's 'Invincibles' side that went a full Premier League season unbeaten under Arsene Wenger, face off in Ligue 1 on Wednesday when Monaco host Nice.

Monaco are battling relegation under Henry while Vieira, in his first season as Nice's head coach, has his side safely in mid-table.

And both men are looking forward to their reunion at Stade Louis II, with Cesc Fabregas's move to Monaco from Chelsea adding a further Arsenal flavour to the contest.
