Thierry Henry on Unai Emery: “He’s a tactical genius. He always goes out there and makes sure his team has an advantage tactically because that’s how he operates. We all know what he did in Spain. For me, obviously this is no disrespect to what Mikel Arteta is doing and is doing extremely well for Arsenal, I just thought that if we kept him [Emery] a bit longer he would have been a success at Arsenal.” 👑
I do agree with you, we would’ve gain few silverware by now but the board the fans base didn’t favor/back him … if arteta don’t deliver this season, he should be sack
Henry is wrong. People really forget how shit he was at Arsenal, especially towards the end. Idk why people are constantly playing revision with his time at Arsenal just because he did well at Villareal and now Villa afterwards. He's a great manager, but sometimes it just doesn't work out at some clubs, and that was the case with Emery and Arsenal. it is what it is.
He's a good coach. Wrong time, wrong club, that's it. We had a toxic dressing room then. Good to see him flourishing at villa. Looking at today's performance, our 2-0 win at villa park seems like a bigger deal.
Villa is perfect for him. The players he had at arsenal AT THAT TIME were big headed and egos were through the roof. Toxic locker. Humbleness and underdogs work better for him.
@@juneyahsaucey9309Correct, but Mikel has built that himself at Arsenal, which is why he's perfect for them. The Arsenal job was a huge project back then.
As an arsenal fan i do not think we made a mistake or regret, and neither should he. Solid coach at a solid team and we have raised our level beyond what most of us would have thought
Emery had us 11th conceding 20 shots a game. Arteta has us 2 points shy of the title with the best defense on earth. Levels. It's nonsensical from Thierry.
Oh be quiet😂 emery is a top manager who should have been given time to clear out like mikel did. He had no chance because the fans didnt find him good looking and he didnt buy a dog called win.if emery was given 5 years and 700m i think he would have taken is to big trophies. Arteta still cant win a damn thing for us. Its all hope from arsenal fans @@Ed-xv4sy
This was in his first or second season, Where was arteta with Arsenal in his first 2 seasons, not even top 4. Truth is Arteta got way more time to implement compared to Emery and still hasnt won a major trophy.
Watching Emeryball at Arsenal gave me depression and made me genuinely hate football. Henry needs to stop with such revisionist comments. Arteta was born to be Arsenal manager.
Exactly, after the great Arsene Wenger, I hated watching Emery - who clearly couldn't handle being the coach at the biggest club in the world. I completely disagree with Henry.
@@AngronWasRight I am not a fan of the Kroenke's, but think that you're right, Henry probably thinks that Arteta is in his dream job and probably thinking of himself regarding Emery. If Emery stayed a little longer, Henry would've had more time to build his own coaching experience up.
When it comes to arteta Henry talks alot of rubbish... I've noticed he is like that. Once you are better than him ,he talks rubbish. I'm don't know why he is like that. Same thing happens when he talks about Ronaldo. He is just too myopic when talking about people he doesn't like. Unfortunately that makes him sound foolish
Poor from Henry,he just wasn't a good fit for Arsenal. He fits perfectly into Villa's setup. He wasn't a good fit for Arsenal because it wasn't meant to be. We all moved on Henry should too. His statement is actually disappointing. Wishing Unai and Villa the best!
(Arsenal fan) i am delighted for Emery. He just landed in Arsenal at the wrong time & wasnt able to turn it around here quickly enough. But we could see he was a class manager and are happy to see him doing so well at Villa. That said - we are not jealous. Emery is brilliant - but Arteta is genius. Henry seems to have some kind of personality beef with Arteta for reasons i dont understand...
Henry was a good player but he isn't a good coach or manager. Arteta is a good coach and he knows to manage the team but Henry is jealous to arteta, he must leave arteta alone to achieve his plan to arsenal...Please.
what have we won? ONE european cup, not a single champions league EVER, not a PL since what, 2004? let's keep it a buck. Mikel is a genius but he HAS to win and win now!
@@Ed-xv4syMikel had no experience when Arsenal hired him,the time you give an experienced manager and a non experienced manager shouldn't be the same. Arteta also started didn't really have a budget like the likes of ETH,Ange,Emery when he joined. He had to sell players first,and he to do that for like 2 seasons and a half. I think when we finished Top5, that's why the club actually went out to support him more in terms of spending.
@@Mx19-u3zthanks for the explanation but the question is the same where is the trophy lol 😂 wasn't arsenal good enough to win europa league 2 seasons before ? Last season a struggling Bayern kicked your team which was on some record form
@@Pac-Man10 yeah but sometimes luck is needed as well,we played Bayern and villa back to back,I just knew we were gonna lose to Bayern by drawing at home when they didn't even have fans,and playing Havertz in midfield when he was on fire upfront sort of disturbed our form and momentum.
Please man, i'm begging people to stop revising his time at Arsenal. He was SHIT, especially towards the end. Giving him more time wasn't a viable option, he had us in 15th conceding 30+ shots to Watford, please man. Context matters SO much. Great manager, but sometimes it just doesn't work out at some clubs for some managers. That's just how it is.
@@tris87don16yeah he signed his own death warrant when he sacrificed top 4 for that europa league final which we got spanked in!! He always sacrifices league form for europe. Done it at sevilla, villareal and arsenal.
I've been saying the same thing since he left..Crystal Palace beat us 3-0 at the Emirates then the following week Frankfurt beat us 2-1 at the Emirates in the Europa league. Totally unacceptable.He's a good manager yes but not good enough for Arsenal or a club that has high standards and ambitions..
It's funny how people use what Unai Emery has done at other clubs to conclude that he would have done well at Arsenal as if we don't have his stats at Arsenal to judge him by. Why not use what he did at Arsenal to judge him for Arsenal? And no, don't tell me he wasn't supported. Was his Villareal team better than his Arsenal team? He only needed to beat Chelsea in Baku, but we were thrashed. An injured Kante outplayed all our midfielders, yet Unai is apparently Mr. Tactician. Not forgetting the horrible football we played in the season he was sacked
The inexperienced Kompany going from a relegation team to a huge club like Bayern should be the focus of discussion, not rehashing what was a dark period for me as an Arsenal fan. I am very happy with Arteta and don't understand what Henry is trying to say.
Don't forget, Henry did everything to throw Arteta under the bus in his most difficult time... wanted to drive a takeover with the spotify owner and possibly wanted to become Arsenal manager. This guy is Arteta's enemy... and if you don't believe me... check out how cold and reserved Arteta is around him. He also readily gives advice to Haaland to make him better... not gonna lie, I can't stand Henry now and feel like he's always looking to undermine Arteta and by extension undermine Arsenal! But he, like all the others, will be proved wrong in the end!!
Remember, Henry accompanied the Spotify guy who wanted to buy Arsenal for $1B. The only Arsenal former player who knows punditry is Martin Keown, the rest are amateurs.
@bravehats Keown knows punditry? He's awful! Totally biased towards Arsenal and I'm a Gooner! Pundits need to be neutral in order to be objective. Keown isn't
why are you guys surprised about Henry’s comment? he was all up in Barca’s ass until Arsenal started to become good again. Almost every Arsenal fan hated watching Arsenal play during Emery’s last 12 months. I missed games and that has never happened under Arteta unless i’ve had work. Henry is a plastic Arsenal fan.
Ofc he went to barca he wasted much of his potential at the small club 😂 his legacy would have been some much bigger if he had played longer for Barcelona/ real Madrid or Bayern even united that time poor choices
No revisionist history please. We were right to sack Emery. He was shit for us, when he got sacked. He's done fantastic everywhere else barring PSG where he was solid. Just didn't do well with us. He did some good for us, but that 19/20 opening months were God awful. Shit board and shit dressing room didn't help him ofc. Right decision. Great to see him thrive now.
The Emery period following the greatness of Wenger was a horrible time for me as an Arsenal fan. I was and still am relieved that he's no longer at Arsenal. We've moved on, he's moved on - can we stop linking him to Arsenal. I am very happy with Arteta who is the natural heir to Wenger.
It's possible to be both an Arsenal supporter who loves Arteta, and also keep an eye on Villa results and be genuinely happy to see Emery succeed. Just stay below us in the league and we'll be fine.
I respect him as a legend for Arsenal as a player otherwise Henry as a coach mid, when analyzing Arteta’s arsenal he isn’t a fan and didn’t give props always see half empty glass . So I didn’t rate Henry’s punditry.
Emery was a failure at arsenal fits well into Villa. Both can be accurate and valid at the same time Both sides should be happy things worked for the best ❤
All he needed at the time was time and money to have a better squad just like arteta was given and continued to be given for sure if we still have him would have won at least 1 major trophy by now
@@Qlicky he's a winner mate that's an Arsenal material arteta came in with no experience whatsoever and he was just lucky that's top club he never managed anywhere to get that top position because he was our legend but he never won major trophy as a player soo if you ask me he was beyond lucky and to get all the time in the world and money
@@TendaiDuve Arteta has spent less money in his first 2 years at Arsenal than Emery has at Villa. People still have this notion that Villa are operating on chump change when it couldn't be further from the truth. Half of Villa players that Emery inherited are still their best performers. Arteta changed almost entire squad. And lastly, Emery was horrible at Arsenal.
@Qlicky he was not that mate he had mustafi at the back what do you expect and arteta his first season he did finish 8th 2nd season 5th or 6th he was bad too but the board sticks with him which emery needed but couldn't get that emery still takes us to Europa league final with that upside-down squad The board were just looking for 1of their own which was fine but truth to be told if we still had emery by now at least 1 major trophy we would have 1 and emery better coach that arteta until he won us the prem or UCL
In his final year at arsenal he won 0 league away games we were terrible the final of the euro league against Chelsea was the last straw. Good mid upper league it was just wrong club wrong time Good luck the villans.
Not a mistake. He chokes with big teams, look with PSG. Also, Kompany is a subpar manager, even Ten Hag would win 9-2 with that team against Dinamo Zagreb.
Same is arteta lol 😂 and Arsenal ain't a big team same for PSG with no European glory how shameful are u to call out villa and emery is in every sense bigger than arteta . Your manager couldn't beat a weaker Bayern side last season lol arteta / maresca/ Kompany are just copying pep's old system and methods emery actually has his own style and he has won something major lol
@@Pac-Man10 you are the guys who say Arteta is a copy cat, copying Peps style but 2 weeks ago you were the one saying Arteta likes defensive, conservative football and cant match Peps possession style. So my question is,, what exactly is your stand? 😂😂
Poor football with poor man management, I love uni but bro did a horrible job at our club. In arteta we potentially have one of the best football manager in the world.
Henry left us during a period of decline. Regardless of whether Arteta wins the Premier League or the Champions League, he will always be an Arsenal legend. He made me and countless other fans fall in love with the club again when we were at our lowest point. Winning the Premier League is important, but that’s not the greatest thing Arteta has done-reigniting our passion for Arsenal is.
What I've found quite interesting is the ones who are giving Wenger and Emery the most praise now were the ones that were the most critical whilst they were in the Arsenal hotseat 🤨🤔 none of these people came to their defense but they ALL wanna come out and say differently afterwards. I genuinely HATE how these people operate.
It's really not that interesting. A lot of fans don't know much about anything, let alone professional football. A lot of people wanted Arteta out too, those people disappeared too. Having said that, I never liked Emery at Arsenal and much prefer Arteta. It worked well for both parties in the end. Both Vila and Arsenal got the manager they wanted.
@Qlicky I'm not just talking about fans either. I'm talking about former players turned pundits, like Henry. Where was he in 2019 when Emery needed support? Where was Adams? Where was any of these super Emery fans? We were jumping on the bandwagon and slamming Emery to the ground. They're cowards.
@@dre8463 They did and would slam Arteta again if he didn't produce results. It's a click/view oriented business at the end of the day. The more outrageous the better. Besides, how many of those ex players turned pundits had anything resembling a decent managing career? Their opinion doesn't matter one bit.
@Qlicky thats not even what I'm on about. I'm on about the constant bait and switch with our managers. After they make our managers' positions intangible and get them kicked out with their propaganda, they wanna praise them afterwards and say 'oh, Arsenal should've given them more time'. Oh, REALLY?
@@dre8463 And Im telling you that it has always been like that, and always will be. It's just that you can now see it more with social media, youtube etc.
@@Pac-Man10 are you dumb bro? go and see Arteta team when he took arsenal and see ETH team when he took man utd. There is huge difference. ETH having better players but still struggling to win games
The pressure was different at Arsenal and villa. Nobody not even their owner thought they will do such a big improvement in 1,5 years but they needed some big guns to underperform as well. But big up to emery and villa!
Emery is a great coach but i don't think he is special on the fact that he beat this bayern team managed by kompany. The way Bayern play is dominant in the bundesliga but with pacy wingers/strikers they are easy to expose at the back. I think people should critic kompany more than anything right now.
Same Bayern can fold your small arsenal lol don't forget a much weaker Bayern walked over you and arteta isn't that great or proven lol he is copying pep's old systems same way company is doing same for maresca
@@Pac-Man10 im not an arsenal fan lol. Arsenal are lucky man city sold a lot of players to them without thinking they could be a future threat. But no i do'nt think bayern are a threat this year especially with harry kane unfortunately. i'm a neutral fan football is too corporate nowadays for me to pick a team to love.
We conceded about 20 shots against Watford under emery, that was the final straw. Emery is a perfect underdog manager for a team with lower expectations, and thats not a dig at villa but as of yet nobody is expecting them to win the league, they are happy finishing top 4, if they finish top 4 again this year and expectations start to rise it will be interesting to see how emery copes
Arsenal fan here. It’s clear his communication in English has improved leaps and bounds since he managed Arsenal, and I think that was a major contributing factor to why he didn’t manage to pull off these tactical masterclasses with Arsenal since they probably had a harder time understanding his demands. Lots of love and respect for Emery and so happy to see him doing amazing things with his Villa now, just hopefully always one step behind Arteta’s Arsenal 🤭
As an Arsenal fan, I'm sick of hearing this narrative. I've always said the same thing when it comes to Emery. If he had of stayed in charge for the rest of 'that' season we would have been relegated. The place was toxic, the ground was empty and it was getting worse week by week. Emery was incapable of turning the club around. So "no disrespect to Arteta" is actually a huge disrespect. Arteta has turned the club around and he is solely responsible for where we are at right now. I honestly don't care that we haven't won anything, I know that we will but I love football again under Arteta and that's been missing for a long time. Emery is a great manager but the wrong fit for Arsenal. That CBS Sports Golazo show is a clown show, it's pure cringe.
These is exactly what Thierry should have said. Not blabbering on regrets,, what regrets and we are challenging.... but then i guess punditry work alongside the likes of Carragher you are bound to go down to his level.
He is good coach, but he cannot handle toxic dressing room. Ozil lazy , xhaka fight with fans, lacazete fight at training, aubameyang late for training, mustafi always make mistake, nicolas pepe that not premier league quality, guendozi spoiled kid, mikithariyan underperfom, etc etc
Sometimes things just don't work out. I loved the Unai era at Arsenal. It was just a pity that we lost that Europa final. The Arteta project began on the back of Unai's time at the club. We realised that we needed to take a different approach and I'm enjoying it as well.
all arsenal fans forgetting we literally beat villa AT VILLA PARK 2-0 just a couple months ago. And they're trying to tell us that emery is better then arteta? Get tf out of here 🤣
Emery is fantastic and everyone respects him but I don’t think the sack wasn’t deserved - he wasn’t backed and he came at the wrong time. Super Mik at the wheel.
Accord him the respect he deserves! He's way better than a section of the coaches who tout themselves as "Club Managers". Yet, he operates with meager budgets and still delivers!
His statement show how painful the Arsenal loss was to him, he has personal beef with Gunners , Ateta should take every game against Villa very serious they cost us the league last season
Ppl are forgetting that it took Arteta 4 years to take us to a position where we can compete! Was Emery given the same timeframe and resources? NO, Accordingly there is no way any of us can judge him being the wrong person at a wrong time!
As an arsenal fan, im very happy to see Emery getting great results somewhere else. I felt the separation between Arsenal and Emery was very a fair outcome for all.
Emery's time at Arsenal was unfortunate. His tenure was the trigger for the board and owners to wake up and smell the coffee. He is a very good manager and under different circumstances could have been brilliant at Arsenal. We should be grateful that he did as much as he could. The club was a real mess at that time.
What’s wrong with some fans , just because he won against Bayern Munich doesn’t mean he’s better than Arteta , Arsenal won psg , even Lille won Real Madrid. This is football and anything can happen
I don’t regret doing away with Unai for Mikel. It was the right decision and I’m happy we got Arteta. They’re both tacticians and Mikel is just more passionate for the club he loves and I think that there was the difference
I feel excited about the EPL for having managers like Unia, Arteta and Pep. These men are tactical geniuses. Unia probably learned a thing or two from Arteta's tactical masterpiece against pep in Arsenal's 2-2 draw with Man City. These are exciting times and we're in for great footballing entertainment in EPL and europe.
Arteta has transformed Arsenal, from the supporters to getting rid of the over paid prima Donna’s. Arsenal are now a club with solid recruitment and a purpose going forward. Not sure Emery would have done such a great job. And we battered them last season but couldn’t get the result. We’ve already beaten them at their place this season. In Arteta we trust. 💪💪💪
Part of the manager's job is getting everyone (fans, players, staff and owners) pulling in the same direction and seeing where you are taking them. So that when it gets rough, people stick with you. Arteta did that, Emery didn't.
Did he just say “good eVening”?😮 wow! Unai’s really improving. I liked him for Arsenal until he lost the dressing room and oversaw the worst period of supporting Arsenal in my life.
Henry should better watch his words carefully. How many years was emery given to perform and he couldn’t even get us a top 4 finish. Arteta is still proving everyone right that we made the right decision to sack emery. Don’t disrespect the job arteta is doing for us because you are arsenal legend. Things can switch up 2 secs.
Henry speaks from his emotions rather than rationale and It's disappointing to see legends like Henry sometimes diluting facts now to appeal to a wider audience and boost their pundit popularity status by appearing controversial. It's as if TV producers have told him and Wright to tone down their previously fierce Arsenal loyalty. The fact is, Arsenal don't sack managers casually: they have had *only 6 permanent managers in the 62 years before appointing Emery* in 2018 (not counting 1-year interim managers in 1986 and 1995/96). Arsenal tend to hold on their manager beyond their peak years at the club (e.g., Neill, Graham, Wenger). Emery is a good, experienced manager but at Arsenal, he was often poor with tactics, decisions, communications and man management. The rebuild was too big for him and he didn't cope very well with that or the demands of the EPL: he was just not good enough but later brought the experience of that EPL baptism of fire to Villa. He inherited an average Arsenal squad overall but, within it, there was genuine talent and/or experience in the likes of Saka, Martinelli, Xhaka, Willock, Martinez, Aubameyang, Ozil, Leno, Lacazette, Monreal, Ramsey, Guendouzi, Welbeck, Iwobi, Mkhitaryan and Nketiah, and he still could not consistently get the best out of them. He made good future signings in Saliba and Martinelli, a good but already injury-prone Tierney and questionable signings/loans like Torreira, Luiz, Sokrates, Suarez, Ceballos, Pepe and Lichtsteiner. And tactical errors like frequently playing 3 CDMs and at least once, playing Torreira as the CAM while leaving Ozil on the bench as Arsenal lost the game, were ridiculous. The way Arsenal rolled over and lost 4-2 to Chelsea in the Europa League final was defining of Emery there, and in his second season at Arsenal, despite a decent start, that fell away and some of the performances were incredibly poor as he seemed to create uncertainty in the squad and Arsenal languished in the lower realms of the EPL table. At one point Arsenal had just 4 wins in 13 games, conceding up to 30 shots in a game (e.g., vs Watford) or scoring 4 goals away (to Liverpool) and still losing the game. It was chaotic. And keeping it real l regarding the 'Emery for Prime Minister' revisionists, during the second half of last season, despite all the praise heaped on him, managing to qualify for the UCL and beating Arsenal (tired and distracted between the controversial Bayern UCL QFs); Emery engineered only 6 more wins while fighting to qualify, and all against relegation strugglers or teams lower in the table, i.e., Burnley, Luton, Sheffield Utd, Forest, B'mouth and Wolves plus major home defeats to Man U, Spurs (1-4) and Newcastle (1-3) and thrashings to Man City (4-1) and Crystal Palace (5-0). That's Emery in the EPL, and Villa qualified 2 points ahead of Spurs, primarily because Spurs fell away and lost 5 of their last 7 games, yet Emery was being lauded as an uber-genius then too. It's all nonsense: Chelsea is not critiqued each season for sacking Ancelotti after he won trophies with them and finished second, then eventually ended up at Real Madrid and won the UCL. This kind of rose-tinted revisionism of Emery's time at Arsenal is just low-key sniping at Arsenal and Arteta: the post-Wenger job was just too big for Emery, regardless of what he did before or afterwards. Period!
Bayern was poor tactically and was outplayed. People think he was playing against Bayern?. No, He was playing against Vincent Company. Remember that guy?.
I think what Thierry said was wrong, because imo Arteta picks better players to buy than Emery would have. I know that Edu does a lot of negotiations and scouting, but Aretea I feel knows what he wants. Also Arteta used business strategy with the owners. He showed a plan, the budget needed, the return on investments, everything Kroenke's would need, to part with money. He did that and the Kroenke's backed his business plan. Emery doesn't even have the language competency to communicate any form of business strategy. Emery is the sort of manager you would want to get in after Arteta. Give him a team like this and he could work with it. But Arteta isn't finished, he earned the right to manage the team he's built.
This man has not been Arsenal manager in almost 5 years. Can we let this crap go? I remember how most of our club legends didn’t support Arteta when he was going through a hard time earlier in his career. And we haven’t forgotten Henry and Spotify either. It didn’t work for Emery at Arsenal. I’d understand this constant talk about him if Arsenal were worse off but we are better. Congratulate him and keep Arsenal out of it.
When Emery was in charge of Arsenal Ozil and his gang Musafi,Kalasniac etc were disrupting the dressing room,Abangayang did his own thing etc etc Emery was a good coach but he never had the balls to take on the big names at Arsenal which is exactly what Arteta did thank god !
Unai always good against big teams, his tactical preparation is insane. One thing he lacks might be working on it is against "small team" like low block teams. Sorry he didn't have much time at Arsenal tho.
It wasn’t that under Emery Arsenal never won anything. It was that they looked smug when they finished 5th or reached a European final and got thrashed. Emery just had the air of a man who’d always be dining out on 5th place. He’s still doing that at Villa although it’s easier to get away with it up there. He had some good days at Arsenal, but his ingenious half time substitutions were usually putting right his starting 11s…a clever coach with fatal flaws is how most Arsenal supporters remember Emery. I wish him well but I’m bloody glad he’s not still at the Emirates. We’d be 5th and losing semifinalists in the Europa.
Players were making fun of him. Players who hadnt done shit in their career. Full of divas like aubemayng, it was like th3 united dressing room. This man is a master! I won money on him
The problems with Arsenal right after Wenger's resignment is the vacuum of power structure and the team culture of top 4 complacency. The whole club was in a big big post-Wenger transition. Emery was brought in by Raul Sanllehi, with Sven Mislintat 'Sven Mislintat' in charging of scouting. That structure did not work and even the 70M flop 'Pepe' was signed despite Emery wanted Wilfred Zaha. Arsenal performed worse and the fans were turned against Emery and the team. Mikel has done a great job by constantly improving the squad and installing winning mentality. He also make the fans united again and enjoy watching Arsenal. Mikel is a bit of lacking in Europe competition but more improvement soon will come. Emery is very very experienced in Europe with multiple success and surely his coaching progresses well after his time in Arsenal. But I would not change a thing with Mikel in charge. There is only one Super Mike.
Emery hasn’t won anything at Villa? Also I don’t know why people are going over the top about Villa beating Bayern. Bayern had most chances, most possession and were caught on the break. I don’t actually see that it was a tactical masterclass from Emery. Villa got away with one.
Emery was simply frozen out of Arsenal by the treatment he was accorded by the media, section of fans, club management, backroom staff, inclusive of a section of the players . He wasn't given the support , patience and financial backing that Arteta is enjoying currently. Additionally, the sarcasm he experienced while trying to speak proper English was taken way too far!
He is a coach for 3rd placed teams, ucl quarter finals or Europa win. He doesn't have what it takes to mix with the elite. He only beat Kompany Bayern and people are already shouting. He can't coach the elite teams of Europe.
Last weekend Emery was outplayed by Ipswich and drew 2-2 away. Do you see any news on media or newspaper or criticism? NO, because he manages Aston Villa. If that happened with Arsenal, Man City, Man United or Chelsea, it will be a headline news next day around the country. That is why he was not successful in Arsenal and PSG. He is perfect for Sevilla, Villa, Villareal etc.
Hell NO, Arsenal made the correct decision, we had seen enough to show us we were going nowhere with this guy, Arsenal is a much better team right now thank you✌️
Henry's question is irrelevant considering how strong Arsenal has become under Arteta. Getting a result against BM for me does not change my perception of Emery especially given that in football on a team's good day anything is possible. Did Henry forget what happened when we played the Europa League final with him as the boss? Excuse me! The Arsenal team he assembled had a soft underbelly and could never stand toe- to- toe with Pep's team. He managed in Spain for many years, all the time competing against Pep and never came close. He was and is not what we need at Arsenal Henry please 🤫.
