Henry: It s hard for Manchester City to stop the conversion attack. If it s too open to play Arsenal, it s dead

September 27 News Recently, Henry and Neville talked about Manchester City's 1-1 Arsenal game.

Henry said: "If you look at the beginning of the season, Manchester City has had problems that they have never had before, and it is difficult for them to stop the transition from the offense."

"If you play Arsenal and the position is too open to the offense, then you are dead. People have been saying that Guardiola never wants to adapt to a situation. He made adjustments this time, but people criticized him. It is always easy to talk afterwards."

"Maybe Guardiola is trying to find the best lineup for himself, and there are two new assistants around him. They played Thursday night, and I know that this has bothered a lot of people, but it is really important. Maybe he thought, 'Let's try to surprise them, play a game we have never played before.' By the way, he can do anything. He really surprised us all."

Neville also said: "The past 6, 7, 8 years we only see them in control of the ball. When they are at their peak, you know they will lead 1-0, and the ball possession rate can reach 70% and 80%, and the opponent can only chase them. "

" This is a completely different Manchester City; it's a complete change. Seeing him doing that in the final stage of the game is a 180-degree turn. People always ask the head coach a lot of questions: have they adapted? Do they have the flexibility to make changes in the game? "

" Guardiola has almost never changed his playing style in the past. It's almost like saying that everyone has to adapt to my approach, and everyone has been imitating him over the years, conducting from the backcourt. But now he has surpassed that. Their style of play is indeed more physically focused on confrontation, more direct, and there are much less passing than before."
