Thierry Henry destroys one Arsenal star who must 'offer more' in ruthless analysis of Mikel Arteta's side

Thierry Henry destroys one Arsenal star who must 'offer more' in ruthless analysis of Mikel Arteta's side

Thierry Henry and Jamie Carragher looked at the way Arsenal play on Monday Night Football.

Thierry Henry analysed what Arsenal can do to improve their chances from open play as he ruthlessly singled out ONE player.

Arsenal have dropped points in their last two Premier League fixtures, having drawn 1-1 with Fulham and played out a goalless draw with Everton last weekend.

On Monday Night Football, Henry looked at his old side's 2-0 victory over Manchester United earlier this month, claiming they are far too 'predictable' compared to Liverpool.

"They're very predictable. It is outstanding to score from set-pieces. The last three goals in the league are from set-pieces," he said on Sky Sports.

On Liverpool, Henry explained: "When you see Liverpool going forward you see [Joe] Gomez, [Darwin] Nunez, [Diogo] Jota running. But with Saka you know he's going to play to [Martin] Odegaard."

The Frenchman then focused on Gabriel Martinelli, analysing a one-vs-one situation with Diogo Dalot.

He lamented the Brazilian's decision-making, saying: "You're not playing your one-vs-one."

Jamie Carragher added: "Martinelli has to offer more."



Carragher continued: "I don’t think it’s a striker necessarily but I think it’s an attacking player. For me, when you see this lad, Saka, on the right side and you see what they have on the left, it’s like chalk and cheese.

"Now, Martinelli and Saka, a few years ago were almost at a similar level but Saka has jumped up to be one of the best players in European football in his position but Martinelli unfortunately hasn’t joined them.

"I’ve always felt, last two years and even this year, the reason I’ve never gone for Arsenal is I feel they’re a world class attacker short. When I think of the other teams that Chelsea have, that Liverpool have, that City have, I don’t think they’ve got that quality."

Arsenal occupy third place in the league table, with 30 points on the board and trail league leaders Liverpool by six points.

The Gunners will be looking to return to the win column when they resume their league campaign on Saturday against Crystal Palace.
