Ledley King: “Henry was the best striker in the Premier League for me. Why? Just all over the pitch. Loved it out on the left wing, you couldn’t go out there.”
“When he comes inside, gets ahead of steam, he’s dribbling – that’s a problem for you. Could run in behind you, skilful, strong. He had everything.”
“He was the one striker that I felt could embarrass me if I had an off day. Other than that, I didn’t really feel like that.”
“Ronaldo was a winger. Bit different. Rooney? Quality, just like Berbatov. But not in the same embarrass you way. Van Nistelrooy was more of a box player. I didn’t fear him outside the box at all.”
