The New York Red Bulls head into this weekend's new Major League Soccer season hoping its latest personnel reshuffle will finally deliver a maiden title after an 18-year wait.

Former France and Arsenal striker Thierry Henry, who is entering his fourth season with the club and is the face of the franchise, certainly needs no reminding of the expectations.

"This organization and the fans have been waiting a very long time to get a trophy and so hopefully in my time we are going to be able to bring it back to New York," he said during a recent interview at MLS Media Day.
