Thierry Henry has revealed he will demand talks with Barcelona,s management if he continues to be played on the left wing.

After spending most of last season - his first at Barca - stuck out on the left, the France striker was told by Guardiola during the summer that he would play more of a role down the middle this term. But with Samuel Eto'o back in favour Henry has found himself back out on the wing.

"For the moment, there is nothing to talk about," he said. "But if this continues, of course we will have to talk about it."

He added: "It is true that I had talks with the coach before the start of the season. For me, the talks were clear."

Playing in his favoured central role, Henry was in inspired form for France in the World Cup qualifying victory against Serbia earlier this month, scoring the opener as Les Bleus ran out 2-1 winners.

In that game, Henry was allowed to drift across the front line at will and some of his link-up play with playmaker Yoann Gourcuff was a joy to watch.

But he is not afforded that freedom at Barca and is forced to stay out on his wing.

"When the ball is being passed around quickly and I have licence to move around, I play," added Henry, when asked for the reasons for his return to form against Serbia.

"And then Gourcuff was playing in a 'Zidanesque' way that night.

"But Barcelona have a well-grounded game plan where you have to respect certain rules. When you play on the wing, you have to stay there to open the game up and wait for the ball. It is like that here. You must accept it."
