Arsenal news: Thierry Henry says the loss was unacceptable

Manager Arsene Wenger watched on as his Arsenal side were easily brushed aside by Liverpool, with the hosts scoring two goals either side of half time.

Henry says it was a performance he has seen many times from his former side in recent years.

And he says the current team is a stark contrast to the sides he played in in his eight year spell at the club.

“We’ve seen that movie before,” Henry said on Sky Sports.

We’ve seen that game before. The way Arsenal loses the game is always the problem

Thierry Henry on Arsenal's loss to Liverpool

“We’ve seen that game before. The way Arsenal loses the game is always the problem. 

“You can lose at Anfield, it can happen. But not ‘how’ it happened, it’s always the ‘how’ with Arsenal. 

“We’re always talking about desire, we’re always talking about commitment. Just have a go. 

“People always talk about Arsenal with the flare and the flare and the flare and I don’t like to compare but I’m going to go back to when I arrived at Arsenal, the team that I arrived into could compete and fight.

“Then Arsene bought some flare players, where is the fight? 

“Where is the competing? Where is the tracking back? Where is the winning the 50-50? 

“The thing that we always talk about, it’s today, it could be another day, it was at Stoke, West Brom last year and so many games in the Champions League. 

“It’s just unacceptable what happened today against Liverpool, it’s as simple as that.”
