"I don't know what we're going to do" - Thierry Henry highlights big concern for Arsenal ahead of Chelsea clash

Arsenal's legend speaks about the club's poor run of form

Ahead of Arsenal's Premier League clash with Chelsea on Sunday (November 10), club legend Thierry Henry has expressed concern about their poor run of form in recent weeks. This came after Inter Milan defeated the Gunners 1-0 in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday (November 6).

Speaking on CBS Sports ahead of the clash against Chelsea, Henry was quoted saying (via Metro):

"I don’t know what we’re going to do, I’ll be honest with you. I actually don’t know how we’re going to go."

He added:

"I just don’t know how we’re going to play away from home."

Henry's comment could be linked to the fact that Arsenal have won just one out of their last five away games, registering three defeats, one win, and one draw. A win against Chelsea away from home might be difficult.

The Gunners are ranked fifth on the Premier League table, having registered 18 points from 10 games. They are seven points behind league leaders Liverpool in the title race.

Meanwhile, Chelsea are fourth in the standings, having registered 18 points as well.

Anything other than a win will be a disappointing result for the Gunners, as it could further reduce their Premier League title hopes.

In the last two Premier League seasons, Arsenal have been viewed as title contenders. However, they failed to win the title despite coming close last season.

In the 2023-24 season, Manchester City won the league, having registered 91 points. Arsenal finished second with 89 points. This goes to show you how crucial the little points are in the Premier League.

The Gunners are struggling, having picked up only seven points in their last five league games. However, their forthcoming clash against Chelsea is an opportunity for them to return to the title race. There's a need for the players to improve if they intend to win the league title this season.

A win against Chelsea will keep the Gunners' title hopes alive, while a defeat would reduce them.
