Former Gunner Thierry Henry admitted he would have mixed emotions if Barcelona drew Arsenal in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League.
The draw takes place on Friday and Henry, who spent eight years with the Londoners, feels it would be strange to come up against his fprevious employers. "Of course it would be special to draw Arsenal. Everyone knows that. It will be a really weird feeling if we get them because of the love I have for the club and the fans," he told The Sun.
"I haven't had the chance to go back to The Emirates to watch a game since I joined Barcelona (in 2007).
"We play on Sunday quite often in Spain and with training the day before and Champions League matches as well it has not been possible to get there.
"A lot of people are still there from my time at Arsenal - not just players but people behind the scenes who make it such a great club."
He added: "I'm not saying I'd prefer to avoid them but if we get Arsenal in the draw it will be really weird."
