Arsenal great Henry: Everyone feels they can score goals in Chelsea system

Arsenal great Thierry Henry thinks that in the system employed by manager Antonio Conte at Chelsea, every player is capable of scoring goals.

The Blues travelled to Leicester City without their main goalscorer Diego Costa on Saturday and were expected to struggle.

However, they produced a commanding display and registered a 3-0 win against the reigning league champions courtesy of a brace from defender Marcos Alonso and another goal from winger Pedro.

"Everyone thought it was going to be a difficult game against Leicester," Henry said on Sky Sports.

"Especially at Leicester but they found a way to win the game.

"I think their system and the way they play, whoever they play in that system feels like they can score goals.

"Alonso came up with two big goals. The second one was a bit lucky. I loved the pass there from Pedro and he finished that easily. But they won three nil and they looked comfortable."
