Henry: That Should Be The Standard Performance Away From Home

Former Arsenal start and Sky Sports pundit Thierry Henry has praised the Gunners’ performance during the 0-0 draw away at Chelsea (via The Express).

It was undoubtedly a pleasing point away at Chelsea. Stamford Bridge has so often been a terrible place for Arsenal to go but a draw is a decent result.

The performance itself was what had most Arsenal fans pleased. The Gunners were compact, dogged and determined and it seems that Thierry Henry was impressed as well.

“In terms of performance, that’s standard in terms of what you need to do away from home,” Wenger said after the match.“When you are away from home, whether you play the champions or not, you need to be careful of what’s going to happen.

“So yes, Arsenal got a point. Yes, Aaron Ramsey was better but the team defended better, the wingers were tucking in, helping those two guys at times when Aaron Ramsey was going, again, too early, they were recovering a bit for him.“The three at the back were also a bit better because the job was done in front of them.“Everything was better today.”

Henry isn’t wrong. Everything was much better against Chelsea than it was against Liverpool two weeks previous. Hopefully, both Arsene Wenger and the team itself will see that this is the best way to play against the big sides, particularly away from home.
