The Gunners have suffered three consecutive Premier League losses, including back-to-back away defeats to Bournemouth and Newcastle.

Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has expressed concern over the Gunners' Premier League title hopes, suggesting that another defeat could effectively end their chances.

The Gunners have lost their last three Premier League matches, including consecutive away defeats to Bournemouth and Newcastle.

As a result, they have slipped to fifth place, five points behind second-place Manchester City and seven points behind leaders Liverpool.

With Arsenal facing Chelsea on Sunday at Stamford Bridge, Henry believes a defeat could prove fatal, given the strong performances of Liverpool and Manchester City.

"Right now they’re not challenging for the league, obviously as you can see the results are not good enough to be able to be at the top, still a long way to go.

"I think it will be extremely difficult. Why? Because you have too many teams to catch. One team can have a problem, but one or two - we’re going with Liverpool and Man City. I don’t see two teams collapsing. That’s my issue," Henry said on CBS Sports.

Henry won the Premier League Golden Boot a record four times, along with two FA Cups and two Premier League titles, including one during an unbeaten Invincible season.

The France legend was part of Arsenal's Premier League winning team in the 2003-04 season, nearly 20 years ago.
