Henry warns Arsenal to respect Real Madrid, Manchester City
Henry said on CBS Sports:
"I’ve been in both situations as a player where sometimes people didn’t want to play against us, and we didn’t go really far, and we had a team when we went to the final I don’t think was our best team at Arsenal.
"I’m just saying, you can never disrespect anyone in Europe.
There are two teams there who can be cocky – it’s Real Madrid and Man City, that’s about it.
"Man City are the team to beat still, for me. I know Pep, it’s not how he’s going to take it."
