John Terry and Jamie Carragher have no doubt that Arsenal legend Thierry Henry was the most frightening player they came up against during their playing careers. Henry is revered in the Premier League thanks to his superb 174-goal stint with Arsenal between 1999 and 2007. He fired the club to two league titles - which includes the 'Invicinble' 2003/04 season - and two FA Cups, while he became one of two inaugural inductees to the Hall of Fame last year.
