Thierry Henry: 'Jamie Carragher is one of the best ever'

Thierry Henry believes that Jamie Carragher will be remembered as one of the best defenders in Premier League history.

The long-serving centre-back will make his last appearance for the club when they take on Queens Park Rangers at Anfield today.

Henry played against Carragher numerous times during his first stint at Arsenal which lasted eight years, and the Frenchman rates him as one of the finest ever.

"He'll go down as one of the top five in Premier League history," Henry told LFC.tv.

"I've had some incredible battles, I have lost some and I have won some, but they were always fair and hard. That was the type of battle you'd look forward to."

Carragher made his debut in a League Cup defeat to Middlesbrough in 1997.
