Thierry Henry, a fan favorite of Arsenal, criticizes Unai Emery for cutting him off from the Gunners in the most recent Aston Villa news.
Five years ago, the Unai Emery administration prevented Thierry Henry from being able to “relate to” Arsenal.
Emery, the current manager of Villa, led Arsenal from May 2018 until November 2019. During that time, Arsenal missed the top four and Emery was fired after a stretch of seven games without a victory. Henry was one of the many Arsenal supporters who found the period challenging.
He has since said that he didn’t actually support the team or like the football they were playing during that period; he only went to Arsenal games because he “had to” and not because he had a connection to them. Emery is devastated by that decision, which stands in sharp contrast to the success the Spaniard is experiencing at Villa Park.

I couldn’t connect with the (Arsenal) club five years ago, Henry stated on the podcast The Rest is Football. I simply couldn’t. I wasn’t attending the games because I wanted to, but rather because I had to.
