Henry Winter INSISTS Arsenal's Victory Over Aston Villa Is A HUGE Psychological Hurdle Overcome! 🤩🙏

and it's the perennial question have Arsenal got enough to win the league title Henry well I mean you know there's some chance uh like goal flashes trossard again I mean it's just he is remarkable the way he did he on the bench and then when he came on from with Martinelli starting in his place yeah well I think at the moment on form you would have trossard ahead of Martinelli but maybe artetta looks at him and thinks well trossard is going to have more of an impact coming off the off the bench but absolutely I thought he was he was outstanding when he came on I mean you know we were talking about Manchester United where individuals taking responsibility you look at this Arsenal team and whether it's rare and goal I mean that save that he made okay Oly Watkins could possibly placed it further to to one side but it's it's a phenomenal save whether I follow that one match of the ray back of the sun magic man on the back of the mail on Sunday it is one of the saves of the Premier League of the Premier League era not quite Jimmy Montgomery from 1973 but not bad all the same no but I mean it's absolute magnificent save and the ramsdale debate has slightly subsided and what was impressed me about ramsdale because he must be frustrated because he'd want to be playing but he was actually really joining in the celebrations of the goal so he's obviously got stick for doing that last year didn't he for celebrating what for being a team player or well I think that just so because he was happy sitting on the Ben suggestion it was wasn't all it looked but I I do understand what you're saying he is he is being a team player But ultimately he needs to leave yeah I I agree and there are one or two clubs I thought he might have gone to Newcastle I know Pope's back well well well what what is is Pope a lot better than ramsdale well one of the things about Pope is he's not great with his feet and one of the things that saw ramsdale kicked out the Arsenal side is he wasn't as good with his feet as R so I'm not sure there's anything in that one yeah okay um dismissed Henry no fair point um CBA his powers of recovery we just saw that what really impressed me was califur when he came on I mean Timber did okay but it's almost like artetta is going for this pep style back four of sort of four tall almost Center half type characters I think Cala Fury will be will will have an impact there I mean just on on Villa because we tend to focus on on on the on the winners first I hope Matt cash you know recovers quickly from his his an injury but also how good was was Rogers I just thought he was terrific particularly in the first half he was outstanding MBO didn't actually realized he was that good he didn't look quick enough I don't think for the Premier League clearly was yesterday I spoke to Michael Carrick before the uh the game they had against Chelsea in the Cup last season and Rogers and you know what a what a play was it it looked then that he was he was going to uh to to leave and they were struggled to hold on to but he was just praising him so highly and and you could see with performances like that particularly sort of almost Unleashed through through the middle so look Phil got a fantastic manager and you don't really expect Emmy Martinez I know it was one n at the time you don't expect Emmy Martinez to make a mistake like that but what is interesting obviously Thomas parte scored that goal Martin is probably should have got down quicker and got it away but Thomas party's his position is kind of going to be under threat when um Marino comes in famous Newcastle midfielder Mel mourino of course the legend Why didn't even notice when he left nobody cared the the only issue is is that party I think brings the best out of Dean rice in terms of allowing rice who is a sort of box to box eight but he allows him to go more forward whether that's the same if you got Marino in it but but coming back to your first question which is always the first question with Arsenal do they need a center forward personally I still think they do the weekend that Harland scored a A hattick Kai HS always have this debate with Arsenal fans and say why aren't you totally convinced with Kai havs look at all his goals and and everything but I just think to be a clinical taker of chances you still need someone more clinical than kai havs anyway do you agree um yes I do agree and after the win Mela to talk sports Adam bridge this secret to this terrific away form in 2024 that's unbeaten um it's only three goals conceded in those in those 10 matches well first of all obviously the willingness and and and the courage and the semination that the team plays home and away with the same Purpose with the same ambition to win the games and and when you are so willing to to win and then the right to to win those games uh you have to have certain behaviors and the team is not afraid to come to any ground with that U with that intention makes that point about uh winning away in a great away record nowadays teams don't play any different do they whether they're home or away most the top teams it's it's the same isn't it pretty much do you think grounds are less intimidating yeah I do yeah that's well that's part of the tourist football fan sort of thing I I do think they're less intimidating it's also let's be honest and rightly so a clamp down on some of the chanting that we've had in stadiums which obviously made them intimidating uh it's just generally they it feels it's all the same whether you play home or away now yeah no well I I agree particularly with the team like Arsenal that was a a significant hurdle psychologically for them to overcome because you looked at that and you thought W Villa Watkins Emer we always got a point to prove against Arsenal the way he's organized Villa the way he's got them playing so well so organized some of the the recruits they've got good goalkeeper and that is a it's almost we always use that word a statement win but it almost is in a way and the effect that it has outside the club is in a way is neither here nor there what it means to the players to know that they can go to a place like Villa even as you said say it's not so intimidating I mean Villa Park's still pretty loud I mean the hon is one of the the the noisier stands in in football but you just you just look at them and you just think wow but then Watkins could have taken that chance and you know but when you got players like Baya saaka who gets a kicking and I still I know I go back to it a lot but referees have got to protect all players and they've got to protect B saaka because we don't want players limping through the season because they've been kicked and he got a couple of uh kicks yesterday but his strength of mind and body to actually create that first chance when Lucas Dena just didn't react quickly enough and sacka realized there was a chance there and reach the ball before it crossed the line to to cut it back in for for trad's goal so uh yeah look they are they're strong they look physically strong as well as mentally Arsenal one other thing I'd like to talk about just quickly we'll talk about tottenham's performance a little later when David ple comes on to join us at 10:00 but what about everon Henry that that's an awful start to the season that then not go home or away they are bottom and do they have any money to spend probably not will the Takeover ever happen will the take over ever happen I mean the uh you know the statement from John texter did did you see it when it sort dropped overnight on his website I mean it was extraordinary I mean if he this is if you just explained is the 45% shareholder in Crystal Palace who tried to buy out Crystal Palace didn't get anywhere and is now trying to take over of and it was interesting we had um Steve Parish in the the Crystal Palace Co coowner last season he was sort of talking about that and there's obviously a sort of difference in their approach texter prefers the the multic club element but if you uh my French is appalling but just looking at leip this week and they've been covering some of the issues Financial issues at leyon which texter owns or Co owns and um a lot of their players are up for sale because they've got to meet a 100 million euro um transfer demand or demand from the French authorities by um you know by the end of the transfer window and I think they've they've generated 25 million EUR so far so you know that when you got question marks like that having said that Everton urgently need a new owner because masir obviously wants out they're heading towards this new stadium they cannot afford to be heading to a new stadium in the championship I was slightly alarmed to read this week that texter is not that interested in football particularly just like zoning lots of clubs right which is a a concern I would say if you're an fan as long as he well in terms of people to the board technical directors and people like that then it then it's less of an issue but he's got he's got to do it quickly again it's got to get past the uh the owners and director test indeed need sorting out next up on Sunday edition it's time for our new weekly feature Blast from the Past on am on da via the talk sport app and on your smart speaker talk sport
