Thierry Henry knows better than most others what it takes to win the Premier League title with Arsenal.
The legendary Frenchman won two titles with the Gunners back in the day, the second of which was achieved without losing a game all season.
Arsenal haven’t been able to lift the Premier League crown since, but they are now the favourites to go all the way after finishing second three times in a row.
Henry has now had his say on the title race.

Thierry Henry backs Arsenal to win the Premier League title
Arsenal have had a great start to the new season.
The Gunners have dropped points in only three of their first 11 games, just one of which was a defeat. They are now four points clear at the top of the Premier League table as a result.
That has put them in a fantastic position to go all the way this season, and club legend Thierry Henry believes his old side could do it because they are so solid.
Speaking to DAZN before the boxing match between Chris Eubank Jr vs. Conor Benn, Henry was asked who would win the Premier League title this season.
He replied: “As a fan, I’m going to have to go with Arsenal. What kind of question is this?
“I’m going to have to go with Arsenal obviously, because I do think we look solid. A bit less against Sunderland the other day, but it’s time for us. Hopefully, it can happen.”
Arsenal’s next game in the Premier League is the North London Derby against Tottenham Hotspur, and Henry has promised that he will be in attendance to watch the game.
He told Sky Sports: “Tottenham haven’t lost away from home yet, so it is going to be an interesting one. I will be there.”
Only one thing can stop Arsenal from winning the Premier League title
Arsenal are in a dream situation at the moment.
Liverpool have had a poor few weeks and have dropped down to eighth in the table, while Manchester City have been overly reliant on Erling Haaland.
Those two situations, combined with Arsenal’s great start, have made them the favourites to go all the way, but there could still be one big problem – injuries.
Riccardo Calafiori has been sent back from the Italy squad due to a hip issue, while Gabriel Magalhaes suffered an adductor injury in Brazil’s game.
The likes of Viktor Gyokeres, Martin Odegaard, Kai Havertz, Gabriel Martinelli and Noni Madueke were all unavailable for Arsenal’s last game as well.
Injuries have troubled Arsenal a lot over the last year, and that, in our opinion, is the only thing that can derail their title charge this term.
