Thierry Henry has revealed the immense competitiveness and intensity that motivated the famous Arsenal 'Invincibles' side in 2004, which includes fights on the training field.
Arsene Wenger's unbeatable side included Henry, Patrick Vieira, Martin Keown and Sol Campbell among others, as they cruised to the Premier League title in 2003-04 without losing a match.
And former Arsenal striker Henry, who was top-scorer that season with 30 Premier League goals, has opened up on The Football Show on Sky Sports.
'I keep on saying to everybody we were competitors, wanting to win and would do anything to win, competing against Man united but the hardest thing ever was to train,' Henry said.
'The training session, you saw what we did and what we didn’t do. All you are facing is Sol Campbell, [Martin] Keown, Kolo [Toure], every morning, That is what I had to deal with every morning and they had to deal with us.
'It was so hard in training. Sometimes we would fight in training, battle. It makes me laugh when you hear "oh we argued" but it was meant to happen.'
