Barcelona striker Thierry Henry defended his under-fire teammate Ronaldinho on Tuesday, stressing that the Brazilian is "one of best players in history." "Ronaldinho is an impressive player who changed the history of this club," Henry told The Times. "When things aren't going well, it's his image that stands out. I find it an absolute pleasure to play with him. "I can't explain it. For me, Ronaldinho will always be one of the best players in the history of soccer." Ronaldinho is under immense pressure because of his poor performances with the Catalans. He was left out of Barcelona's 2-1 victory over Sevilla clash in the weekend. Media reports said that Ronaldinho was dropped from the match because he stayed up for too late in the match's previous night. The club said the 27-year-old playmaker suffers from a minor injury and that he is set to miss Real Zaragoza's match on Wednesday. "I know what it feels like when everyone expects something impossible from [me or] Ronaldinho," Henry said. The 2005 World Player of the Year has been linked with a move to Chelsea, who have been reportedly preparing to table a bid worth 70-million euro.
