READ MORE ON FOOTBALLWorking as an analyst for Amazon Prime, the England legend said: “For Arsenal, I was a bit disappointed with how they played.”[I was] disappointed with the fans as well. “The fans against Real Madrid really pushed the team. I thought tonight they were a bit subdued.”The players need help, I thought the fans against Madrid were absolutely fantastic.

So maybe they have to give a little bit more.”Arsenal fans have been through a lot I know.”But maybe if they brought the same energy they bought against Real Madrid that might have lifted the players by five per cent.”PSG were far superior, for me, in this game. Thierry HenryCBSRooney also singled out Arsenal’s midfield at half-time, taking aim at Declan Rice, Mikel Merino and Martin Odegaard. Thomas Partey missed out through suspension for the Gunners, with Rice dropping back to take his place as a No6. Rooney said: “The midfield three for Arsenal are all over the place.”They are trying to go press the ball at every opportunity and they are leaving massive gaps, like you see for the first goal.”They are leaving big gaps in behind and PSG will punish them.”Arsenal legend Thierry Henry covered the game for CBS Sports.And he pulled no punches in declaring PSG were the better team from the first minute. Henry said: “PSG were far superior, for me, in this game. Read More on The Sun”A lot needs to be changed for Arsenal to make sure that they can beat PSG. It’s going to be a different ball game. “There is another tie, you never know what’s going to happen.” More
