Thierry Henry Criticizes Arteta’s Decisions, Reveals How Arsenal Can Beat Real Madrid
Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has voiced his concerns about Mikel Arteta’s tactical decisions, claiming the manager is responsible for his own struggles. According to Henry, Arteta has a complete striker at his disposal but chooses to deploy Mikel Merino, a natural midfielder, as his main forward.
Henry believes that if Arteta starts the proper striker and solidifies the defense with William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhães, Arsenal would have a much better chance of defeating Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League. He argues that Arteta’s reluctance to make these changes could cost the team dearly.
Many Arsenal fans share Henry’s frustrations, believing Arteta often overcomplicates tactics instead of using the best players in their natural positions. With a crucial Champions League clash ahead, all eyes will be on the Arsenal boss to see if he will take Henry’s advice or stick to his usual approach.
Despite Arteta’s success in recent years, including a Premier League title challenge, his decision-making in big games has often been questioned. Whether he listens to Henry or not, the upcoming match against Madrid will be a defining moment in Arsenal’s European campaign.
