“I am not going to conceal my candid assessment of him, as he is unworthy of donning this red and white shirt and is despicable.”- Arsenal legend Mikel Arteta is instructed by Thierry Henry to forfeit the ‘horrible’ £27M after he caused the team to lose its first Champions League encounter of the season.
Thierry Henry alleges that the £27 million Arsenal player committed a “egregious” act at Inter Milan.
In the Champions League match at the San Siro on Wednesday night, Arsenal suffered a controversial 1-0 loss to Inter Milan.
In the first half, the Gunners were defeated after a contentious penalty decision and a strong penalty call of their own that went unheeded.
A free kick was executed shortly prior to halftime, and the ball was directed toward Arsenal midfielder Mikel Merino. The ball struck his outstretched palm.
Although the ball was delivered a yard away from Merino, it was determined to be a penalty, which Hakan Calhanoglu promptly converted.
This occurred shortly after Yann Sommer collided with Merino, causing his forearm to make contact with the Gunners’ player’s head as he attempted to deflect a cross.
Arsenal had numerous opportunities to regain control of the game, despite the nature of their defeat.
One Arsenal player missed a golden opportunity in the 50th minute, prompting the legend Thierry Henry to describe it as a “horrible miss.”
Thierry Henry criticizes William Saliba’s “horrible miss” for Arsenal during their match against Inter Milan.
The player in question is William Saliba, who, following a set-piece in the 50th minute, headed the ball wide of the post from a distance of eight yards.
On Soccer Special, Henry described the £27million man as “a terrible miss.” “Arsenal are currently exerting an immense amount of pressure on them.” Inter are experiencing difficulties.
Meanwhile, Zinny Boswell, a journalist for Sky Sports, stated, “You would anticipate that Saliba would perform better.” He was not prepared for what was a golden opportunity.
