Thierry Henry reacted in disgust when asked if he would've ever played for Tottenham.
Appearing on CBS Sports alongside Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards, Henry was asked by Kate Abdo if he'd ever play for Arsenal's biggest rivals.
Henry didn't even need to say anything to let everyone know what he thought of the question.
"Could you have ever played for Spurs," Abdo asks.
"Oh, please," Henry responds before screwing his face up in disgust.
"Hey, I'm leaving," he says as he threatens to leave the studio following the question.
Henry then made a revelation that left the studio wondering what he was talking about.
"No, joking aside - actually I wasn't joking on that one - I had the opportunity and I declined..."
"Spurs come in for you!?" Carragher asked.
"No," Henry responded.
"For triple the money?" Abdo asked.
"Exactly for what you said," Henry replied to Abdo. "And I said no."
"Who came in for you," Carragher asked.
"I won't say," Henry replied.
"Man United?" Carragher asked.
"No," Henry responded.
"Well, it's got to be a rival of Arsenal," Carragher said.
"No, I won't say. You can say whatever you say I will say no."
Very intriguing...
As an Arsenal legend, Henry must be loving what he's seeing from his former side this season.
The Gunners are currently two points clear of Manchester City at the top of the Premier League with a game in hand.
And while Henry isn't sure whether Mikel Arteta's side can go all the way, he believes he's seeing an Arsenal he recognises.
"Are we going to win the league? I don't know," Henry admitted.
"But it looks like the Arsenal I know. At the end of the day, you can't fool fans, they scream, they're there and they have that attitude because they see something, that's why they're loud. It's a different emotion."
