Arsenal captain Thierry Henry has rubbished claims that he left the club's training ground on Friday following a bust-up with Arsene Wenger.

Henry missed Saturday's north London derby with Tottenham amid claims he had fallen out with Wenger over the Frenchman's decision not to risk his injured striker.

But Henry insists the pair haven't fallen out and his neck injury is serious enough to keep him sidelined for the next few weeks.

"I'm never happy when I miss a derby game against Spurs," he told Sky Sports.

"I just want to make the point that I'm starting to get tired of all this. I saw the stories this morning, based on unproven facts.

"It's true to say I left the training ground upset because I'm going to be out for a little while to get myself fit.

"I've been trying to go out to play and help the team, but sometimes that's not always the best thing. I'm going to take a bit of a break."
