Arsenal legend Thierry Hendry fails to recognise his own club after their failed attempt to breakaway into the Super League.
The Gunners were one of the 12 founding members of the controversial league but withdrew just after 48 hours of severe backlash.
Henry believes that the club are showing more care about making money than running a successful football club.
“I do not recognise my club and what happened just now, with them trying to join a league that would have been closed, makes no sense to me,” the Gunners legend told The Telegraph. “They have been running the club like a company, not a football club, and they showed their hand.
“Maybe it’s a lack of understanding of the core football values and maybe the money was too big of a temptation. Whatever it was, they got it wrong. Badly wrong.”
Henry added: “I was genuinely shocked like most people and couldn’t believe what was unfolding. I have never talked before, but what happened recently made me realise fans, this is your club. It is your club and I’m an Arsenal fan too.
“I’m proud of what the fans achieved. Not just Arsenal fans, all the fans. The result was a victory for football.”
