""I see people calling for him to leave the place," Henry told BBC Radio 5 Live. "As a coach myself, I think it's too early to say that. "Let him work and let him cook and judge him maybe at the end of the season.""
""The thing is it's tough to come and try to impose your philosophy and your identity at a club maybe - I don't know because I haven't watched many games - playing another way," Henry said. "Right now it's too early, and I do think he can turn it around. He is a great guy and has a great mind. "It's not working at the moment and obviously it doesn't look great. But he's a friend of mine, so I am going to be biased.""
Thierry Henry backs Wilfried Nancy and urges Celtic to allow time for him to implement his philosophy before season-end judgment. Nancy has lost four consecutive matches since replacing interim manager Martin O'Neill, including defeats by Hearts and Roma in the Europa League and a 3-1 loss to St Mirren in the Scottish League Cup final. Celtic sit six points behind Premiership leaders Hearts, with a game in hand, after the recent loss to Dundee United. Henry highlights the difficulty of imposing a new identity at a club playing differently and warns against dismissing a coach so early.
