Former France striker Thierry Henry claimed that “a lot of people” do not want Arsenal to win the Premier League title this season.

With only seven games remaining, Mikel Arteta’s side leads Manchester City by nine points.

The Gunners appear to be closer than ever to breaking their 22-year drought.

But Henry, speaking on Monday Night Football, insisted that his former team does not enjoy popular support.

“I wanted them (Liverpool) to win the league because I wanted Jamie (Carragher) to win the league, Stevie G (Steven Gerrard) to win the league, Henry said.

“Whether I like Liverpool or not, you root for the underdog, the team that couldn’t do it, or failed to win the league. (But) a lot of people don’t want Arsenal to win the league.”
