Arsene Wenger believes it is vital for Arsenal to prepare for a pivotal week in their season without doubt surrounding the future of captain Thierry Henry.

Wenger and Henry insist their relationship as manager and skipper remains strong, despite suggestions of a rift when the France striker was ruled out of the clash against Tottenham.

"I just feel that it's important to reiterate that there is no problem between myself and Thierry, in fact, we have always had a strong relationship and that remains the case," said Wenger on www.arsenal.com.
