Arsenal icon Thierry Henry has asked Eddie Nketiah, Leandro Trossard, and Kai Havertz to stand up when Manchester City visit on Sunday as a result of Bukayo Saka’s injury against RC Lens last night.Not only did Arsenal lose 2-1 Friday night in France, but we also lost one of our greatest players to injury. This is a major setback for us as we prepare for the big game this weekend when Saka hobbled off the field with what seemed to be a hamstring issue.
In the Premier League, Arsenal has a terrible recent record while playing Manchester City.
We last defeated the defending champions back in December 2015, when Arsene Wenger was still the manager of the team. Theo Walcott and Olivier Giroud both scored on that day.
Mikel Arteta has helped Arsenal snap several of these troubling runs. The best day to halt our losing streak versus Manchester City is this Sunday, which is exactly what we need to achieve.
