Henry: this Arsenal might be better than the invincibles‘; remaining unbeaten is hard

In the Champions League semi-final on May 5th, Arsenal eliminated Atlético Madrid with a total score of 2-1 over two legs, reaching the Champions League final again after 20 years . In the CBS studio, Gunners legend Henry made no secret of his admiration for this Arsenal .

Just this Tuesday, the team coached by Arteta defeated Atlético Madrid 1-0 in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final , advancing to the final with a total score and remaining undefeated in this season's Champions League so far .

As a legendary figure in Arsenal history and the club's all-time top scorer (228 goals), Henry even believes that this team's performance has surpassed that of the famous "Invincibles" - the Arsenal team that remained unbeaten in the Premier League to win the title in the 2003-04 season.

"When you really look back at everything this team has achieved, you need to take a step back to realize how amazing their achievements are," Henry said on CBS. "We are always talking about the 'Invincibles' of 2004, but what about the feat of this team going all the way unbeaten in the Champions League? This is a completely different level."

He further emphasized that the difficulty of remaining unbeaten in Europe is far greater than in domestic leagues: "In the Champions League, there is almost no room for error. We saw it very clearly in the semi-final against Atlético Madrid. Many people will feel that such a game is simply a nightmare, because you know that they will drag the game into the mud and consume you in their own way. But Arsenal showed patience, they defeated their opponents in their own way, which is more like a psychological chess match."

For this "Gunners" team, Henry believes they are already writing history. As the former top scorer for the French national team (51 goals), he was visibly excited when talking about this Arsenal: "Being able to reach the final unbeaten in the Champions League is in itself a declaration to the world that Arsenal is redefining standards."

"I am first and foremost a fan, and when I see my club interpreting the spirit of North London football in such an elegant and determined way... I will really be moved to tears."
