Jamie Carragher hits out over Thierry Henry's position in all-time Premier League XI

Jamie Carragher has criticised fans for putting Arsenal legend Thierry Henry on the left wing as they select their all-time Premier League XIs.

The debate over who does and doesn't make the greatest line-up in the division's history has been reignited as the Premier League will celebrate its 30th birthday on Monday. The likes of John Terry, Alan Shearer and Henry are regarded by many as shoo-ins for spots in the XI, but there is no set formation for supporters making their selections.

This has irked Liverpool hero Carragher, who cannot understand why Henry is being fielded on the left wing in various teams he has seen on social media. Although he played on the flank as a youngster with Monaco and Juventus, the fabled Frenchman was very much a centre-forward throughout his glittering eight-year stint with the Gunners between 1999 and 2007.
