Henry: Only one Arsenal player would make Spurs side

Thierry Henry believes that only one Arsenal player is good enough to make the Tottenham side. You’ll never guess who.

The Gunners are currently languishing behind their north London rivals in the Premier League table, with 14 points separating the two bitter rivals.

Arsenal face a battle to even qualify for the Champions League, as they are seven points behind current fourth-placed Manchester City, having played one game fewer.

In comparing the squads that Arsene Wenger and Mauricio Pochettino have at their disposal, Henry claims that only one Arsenal player would fit into the Tottenham side.

“It’s difficult for me as an Arsenal man at the minute but you have to be honest,” Henry told Sky Sports.

“I can only see right now Alexis Sanchez getting into that team without anyone saying ‘how come he’s in the team?’

“All the others, I think people will argue with that… but that doesn’t mean Tottenham are going to win easily.”
