THIERRY HENRY'S future at Barcelona has been thrown into doubt following reports he is unhappy at being played out of position.
The former Arsenal star was hauled off by Barca boss Frank Rijkaard in Sunday's 2-1 defeat to Villareal, with teenage sensation Bojan Krkic replacing the Frenchman just afetr the hour mark.
Henry was visibly annoyed at being replaced by the youngster and speculation is mounting that he could now quit the Nou Camp in the summer.
And his former Gunners team mate Robert Pires claims the marksman is deeply unhappy with the Catalan giants.
Villareal midfielder Pires said: "He was angry because he isn't used to being taken off.
"They never did that at Arsenal.
"If I was to say he is okay at the moment everyone would call me a liar.
"It is difficulat for him because he isn't playing in his position - he's always on the left or the right.
"I know him and he isn't happy."
The defeat to Villareal leaves Barcelona second in La Liga - EIGHT points off leaders Real Madrid but remain in the hunt for the Champions League following their victory over Celtic last week.
Henry joined the club in a £16.5m move from Arsenal last summer, but has struggled to hit the form he achieved with Arsene Wenger's side.
