How do you replace Thierry Henry? You turn to Penn State!

The Red Bulls are in dire straits this weekend with at least five starters out due to the international break. Thierry Henry is out with a hamstring injry, meanwhile.

The Red Bulls have no good forwards available since Juan Agudelo is playing for the U.S. against Argentina. That means coach Hans Backe will probably use English reject Luke Rodgers and rookie Corey Hertzog.

That means Thierry Henry, who had an illustrious career with Arsenal in the English Premier League and won a World Cup with France and is known worldwide, is being replaced by ....

Corey Hertzog, a rookie fresh out of Penn State.

So some guy from Penn State is replacing Thierry Henry. Only in MLS, folks.
