Arsenal Legend Thierry Henry Admits He Is 'Worried' Arsenal Won't Make the Top Four This Season

Published on: 11 March 2017

Arsenal currently sit in 5th place, two points behind Liverpool in 4th and outside of the Champions League places. Gunners legend Thierry Henry admits that he has never been so 'worried' about Arsenal not making the top four before.


Arsenal very recently got humiliated by Bayern Munich in the Champions League losing 10-2 on aggregate, and they are not helping themselves with their current form in the Premier League. This has all led to calls from fans that it is time for Arsene Wenger to go.

Thierry Henry has been speaking to The Sunabout his worries: "There is all the talk about Arsene's future. But the focus now should be saving the season and the top four.


"It won't be easy. I've never been as worried about us falling out of the top four as I am now."


The Gunners still have top four rivals in Manchester City, Tottenham and Manchester United to play before the end of the season, in what is a very tough run in.

The Arsenal legend also spoke about how they have been shipping a lot of goals recently and it needs to stop: "When Arsenal ship a goal you feel it could escalate to two, three, four‰.‰.‰.‰just because you go down to ten men does not mean you simply lose.


"You can still fight to keep it respectable. Yet I don't think the players gave up. It can look like that when things go horribly.

"There is no set formula. Chelsea win titles by chopping and changing manager when everyone says consistency is key.


"The only right formula is the winning one. I've been in these situations when the confidence goes. It is so hard when you are in the middle of it to sort it out. But they must “ and quickly."

If Arsenal fail to get a Champions League spot at the end of this season, it would be the first time in Wenger's history of managing the club that he would have failed to do so.


Henry certainly is extremely worried by this, and so are fans.
