The former Gunners midfielder urged a fellow Frenchman to be more humble during his playing days in north London, but that advice fell on deaf ears
Thierry Henry did not take too kindly to being told that he need to be “more humble”, says Emmanuel Petit, with the Arsenal legend failing to change his ways when moving from playing to coaching.
Back when the Gunners were regular challengers for the Premier League title, two World Cup-winning Frenchmen graced the books in north London.
Petit was of the opinion that Henry, who matured into a fearsome striker during his time in England, should change his ways slightly as he got older and more experienced.
