Ông nghĩ Arsenal sẽ mạnh hơn nếu ko có Thierry Henry và tin tưởng Arsenal vẫn sẽ trong top 4 đội dẫn đầu.(!?) (ĐƯƠNG NHIÊN)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has claimed that Arsenal will be a "more dangerous" team without Thierry Henry next season.
The former Gunners captain moved to Barcelona earlier this summer for a fee of over £16 million, adding to an impending feeling of uncertainty around the club this summer.
Manager Arsene Wenger's future remains in the balance following the departure of his friend and Arsenal vice-chairman David Dein towards the end of last season.
Allied with the departure of inspirational captain Henry, it has left Arsenal fans feeling as if the club is slowly drifting out of the well-established top four.
But beleaguered Wenger has received support from an unexpected quarter when rival manager Ferguson backed his decision to allow the sale of Henry.
"They'll still be in the top four next season," the United boss told Sky Sports News. "I'm more convinced they'll be in the top four without Thierry Henry.
"I think it was time for him to go and Arsene knew that. I think they'll be better."
To replace their outgoing French striker, Arsenal have already purchased Brazilian-born Croatian forward Eduardo da Silva for an undisclosed fee, believed to be about £8 million.
