Midfield unbalanced! Henry says Madrid made a mistake by using Modric as the starter against Arsenal mungme168

mungme168 Former France striker Thierry Henry believes Real Madrid made a mistake by starting Luka Modric in their 3-0 Champions League defeat at Arsenal.

The 39-year-old midfielder started in the away game at the Gunners, which Henry believes has contributed to Los Blancos’ midfield balance and the hosts’ physicality being clearly lacking. mungme168

” We saw it in the balance of Real Madrid’s midfield, the space between their midfield and their defence, especially with Modric there, it was too much for him, ” Henry said.

” Declan Rice plays in the middle, drives the game and in that area Madrid don’t move much. That’s why Camavinga looked angry towards the end. We saw him get booked and fouled in every area because he had to help everyone. “

” We saw that Arsenal were physically better in this game. It looked very different in midfield. Arsenal looked more powerful there. That’s the key point for me. Madrid’s midfield balance was not good. ” ( mungme168 )
