He said of Henry:
 
"If a player is only a goalscorer, you start to worry if he isn't scoring. Thierry's different. I never worry about Thierry because, even if he isn't scoring, he helps other players score.

"They were Thierry's first goals for five or six games. And he knew that for him, goals are like a bank balance - he knows where he stands."

He went on to comment on the performance of the team in general:

"I'm pleased because, in the past, we've become complacent in situations like these. Leading 2-0 can sometimes be a tricky position as, if the opposition suddenly score, you can become nervous.

"But we controlled the game well. We felt at half-time that we had the game under control - and it was like that because we treated Wolves with respect.

"Wolves didn't particularly come at us when the score was 2-0 and we kept a serious approach in the second half although we were less mobile. We wanted to keep a clean sheet and score a third goal. But it took us a long time to score that third goal."
