5.0 out of 5 stars A must have for any Gunner fan., February 20, 2005

By	Jack Dantes "John G" (California) - See all my reviews

This DVD categorizes chronologically the 100 goals scored by Dennis Berkamp and Thierry Henry. It also has commentary by the two players on some of their more memorable goals.

Dennis is getting close to retirement so this is a nice review of his prolific career at Highburry. Henry has only reached the apex of his career. He is probably the deadliest goal scorer in all of Europe. Though he is getting close to his 200-goal mark this DVD is worth captures his first 100 goals along with match results beautifully.

It's a bit pricey compared to what it sells for in the UK, but we football fans in the US get penalized, because football is not appreciated by the mass populous.

It definitely is a must have for any Arsenal fan, as we see Dennis Berkamp hand the baton Henry, in this terrific DVD. Look out for Henry's 200 goal DVD soon (I hope).

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent set for American Arsenal fans, February 10, 2005

By	D. Goodwin "Big movie fan and A/V newbie" (Atlanta, GA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

It's about time we American EPL fans can get DVDs in Region 1 format...the Centurions DVD does not disappoint. One disc for Dennis Bergkamp, one for Thierry Henry, 100 goals each in sequential order. It really shows the skill of both players and how adaptable they are to any situation on the pitch. Each disc weaves the scoring highlights with interview clips with both footballers.

Since this is ported from an original PAL source, the video leaves a lot to be desired, but most English football fans in the US are used to the conversion. It's in 1:33 full frame format. The audio is Dolby stereo and is very clear - nothing spectacular, but serves its purpose.

An excellent buy for Arsenal fans.

5.0 out of 5 stars Master Class, February 16, 2006

By	John Daykin (Westlake Village, CA, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

You don't have to be an Arsenal fan (I'm not) to get your moneysworth from this. If you love the game and enjoy the skills of great players, you'll be well entertained. I've sat and watched the Thierry Henry DVD over and over. I've used it as a teaching aid for coaching finishing inside the box, having players study and chart every goal in detail (80% of Henry's goals in open play are scored inside the penalty area). Quite simply, I cannot think of another striker in my 40 years of football who can finish with such precision and accuracy time after time. It's not just a bunch of goals, it's a master class. The Bergkamp DVD offers an opportunity to contrast a different style altogether. Although it was obviously released for the fan market, I recommend this set not just from the fan's point of view but as a valuable addition to the library of anyone who loves the game, studies it,coaches it or otherwise takes it seriously.
