Thierry Henry says that Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta’s team has progressed under his leadership and can beat any Premier League, but he fears a lack of consistency could prevent them from competing.
The Arsenal legend was impressed with the offensive approach that helped Arsenal torment Tottenham in the final third during their 2-1 win in the North London derby on Sunday.
Despite deservingly claiming home bragging rights, the Gunners’ uneven season means they remain four points behind arch rivals and 10 points behind fourth place.
Henry told Sky Sports: ‘That team, when it plays with the front foot and moves forward, it can beat any team in the league.
‘Right now, I think the team is good. Can they be better? Yes. Was there any progress? [under Arteta]? I think so.
‘Is there any structure, are they doing better? The table doesn’t lie, at the end of the day, right?
‘You are still behind Tottenham, although you won. You’re still behind a lot of teams. ‘
Debate has raged over Arteta’s record since he replaced Unai Emery in December 2019, although Arsenal have improved significantly from a brief flirtation with a relegation fight earlier this season.
His rookie teammate Henry feels that the FA Cup final victory over Chelsea and the desire for stability following Emery’s dismissal have worked for Arteta’s favorite.
Henry said: ‘It’s a process, he said it himself.
“It is a process that will soon explode, hopefully very soon. But consistency has to happen pretty quickly. ‘
