Thierry Henry: Monaco boss’ awful record laid bare as Arsenal legend insists he isn’t worried about being sacked
Things are not going to plan for Thierry Henry at Monaco.Appointed as the successor to Leonardo Jardim on October 13, Henry knew he had a tough task in guiding his former side to survival in Ligue 1.But now reality is biting and the possibility of relegation is growing by the week.2

Monaco manager Thierry Henry is struggling

When Arsenal legend Henry took charge, Monaco sat in 18th, the final relegation spot, but since then they have dropped another place and are only above Guingamp, the side tanked 9-0 by Paris Saint-Germain.And if their league woes weren’t enough, Tuesday night saw the crisis deepen as his almost full-strength side lost 3-1 to Ligue 2 side Metz, playing a fringe squad, in the Coupe de France. The latest low comes days after a 5-1 defeat to Strasbourg and while the goals conceded were all of a near-exceptional standard, Henry’s own touchline misdemeanour shows just how much the stress is getting to him.In the 43rd minute, opposing full-back Kenny Lala was slow in taking a throw-in and Henry is believed to have snapped:Its the 43rd minute, your grandmothers a whore.”

It was a human reaction, Im still human. I regret it.”And while he’s repentant, his punishment continues at the helm on the French Riviera.It should be noted Monaco have suffered cruelly with injuries and have only been able to call on Rony Lopes, last season’s 15-goal hero, on seven occasions.And, currently, 12 players are out, including Pietro Pellegri, Almamy Toure, Jordi Mboula, Nacer Chadli, and Stevan Jovetic, while others have been sidelined during his tenure, like centre-back Kamil Glik.2

Wonderkid Pellegri is just one player Monaco have been forced to do without through injury

Henry has, though, been backed this January in the transfer market and any complaints will slowly be forced out of his hand following the signings of Naldo, Cesc Fabregas, Fode Ballo-Toure and Lyle Foster, while William Vainqueur has arrived on loan.Either talented youngsters or experienced professionals, any coach worth his salt should be able to get a rise from his side with such quality, which also includes Radamel Falcao and Youri Tielemans.Instead, his faltering attempts to get the French side going, have seen him stutter with a back-three as he tries to turn the tide but right now it’s not looking good.Comparisons are already beginning made between Henry and his old Sky Sports colleague Gary Neville, who struggled in his time in charge at Valencia.

I've said I won't talk about this but it's becoming increasingly annoying… What's Thierry Henry doing with Monaco? How can he be losing matches with that squad even to 2nd tier sides? It's very pathetic! Punditry isn't same as management.— Prophet Chijioke. (@ProphetChijioke) January 22, 2019

Henry remains reluctant to make the plight of Monaco about himself, insisting he’s more worried about the club than his own security.“My future? Owners would decide when they need to decide. I am more worried for Monaco’s future. I already said that,” Henry told a news conference.“I will repeat. No need to always ask the same question, I would answer the same thing Atletico Madridhave been relegated in the 90s with stronger players than us. [Real] Zaragoza as well more recently as you know. I could talk about all the leagues.“We are in this situation, even if it was Coupe de France and now we are out but this weekend againstDijonin Ligue 1 it’s going to be war.”But how long Henry has the stomach for such a battle remains to be seen as the going gets tough.
