Thierry Henry makes surprising comment on Arsenal’s front three

Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has weighed in on the current front three of his former club, expressing both optimism and caution about their potential to lead the team to success in the Premier League.

The front three in question consists of Gabriel Martinelli, Gabriel Jesus, and Bukayo Saka. Henry noted that while Arsenal are currently in second place on the Premier League table with 36 points after 16 league games, their front three have only managed to score a total of nine goals so far this season.

“You can take it two ways,” Henry said. “You are saying, as an Arsenal fan, you are (second in the table) and the front three that maybe didn’t play all the time. We are nine goals (in total so far this season), so if we ever start to score goals, then we can win this league.”

However, Henry also expressed concern about the team’s ability to maintain their current pace without scoring more goals. “Or you are saying, if they stay at the same pace, then it’s going to be difficult to win the Premier League,” he said. “You need to find a way to score goals and kill teams. I hope as an Arsenal fan, they can reach that level.”

Arsenal’s next game will be against Brighton & Hove Albion in the Premier League at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday, 17th December, 2023. Fans will be hoping that Henry’s words serve as motivation for the front three to step up and deliver more goals for their team.
