Arsenal fans turn on “snake” Thierry Henry after Alexis Sanchez reveals role of Gunners’ legend in his exit

Arsenal fans aren’t impressed with Thierry Henry after Alexis Sanchez revealed the Frenchman’s role in his move to Manchester United.

Sanchez completed his switch to Old Trafford on Monday , with Henrikh Mkhitaryan moving in the opposite direction.

After his exit was confirmed, Sanchez penned an emotional message to Arsenal fans after three-and-a-half years with the club.

In the post, he also commented on how he spoke to Gunners legend Henry about the move.

“I remember today, a conversation I had with Henry, a historic Arsenal player, who changed club for the same reason and today is my turn,” he wrote.

Henry was Arsenal’s all-time top goalscorer when he left for Barcelona in 2007.

He would later rejoin the club on a short-term deal with the Frenchman even having a statue outside the Emirates.

But for some Gunners fans, Henry has lost his legendary status after the latest developments.
