Henry Hails Arsenal as Champions League’s Most Solid Side

Henry Hails Arsenal as Champions League’s Most Solid Side

Legendary striker Thierry Henry believes Arsenal are the strongest team in this season’s UEFA Champions League. Despite an unconvincing display, Mikel Arteta’s men secured a 1-0 win over Sporting Lisbon in the first leg in Portugal. Kai Havertz came off the bench to net a delightful lob from Gabriel Martinelli. Arsenal remain unbeaten in the Champions League and look well-placed to reach the semi-finals. Henry told Arsenal News Channel that their defensive unity and set-piece prowess make them the tournament’s most solid side. Before facing Sporting again next Wednesday, the Gunners host Bournemouth in the Premier League this weekend. They sit nine points clear of Manchester City, who have a game in hand.

They barely scraped a 1-0 win over Sporting Lisbon despite Henry's praise, which does raise questions about their supposed solidity.

Arteta should tighten defensive drills before the next leg and find ways to control possession more effectively under pressure.
