Thierry Henry is full of praise for 47-year-old manager linked with Liverpool

Thierry Henry calls Inter Milan manager Simone Inzaghi a “genius,” with the Italian manager being linked with the Liverpool job in the media recently.

“He was known as a cup coach, but now, he’s going to win the league, we know that.”

“This guy is a genius.” 🧠

After that, Henry talked about a few of Inzaghi’s Inter Milan tactics.

He said: “This is something that they didn’t do so much this year. I had to go back to a goal that they scored last year against Roma. Wing-back to wing-back – we’ve seen this before, Conte did it, they’re doing it.

“But, there’s something that I’ve never seen before. At the weekend, I never saw that…
