Chelsea defender Miazga: Henry influence crucial for me

Chelsea defender Matt Miazga values his time with Arsenal legend Thierry Henry.

The on-loan Vitesse stopper played alongside the former Arsenal striker during their time together at New York Red Bulls.

"Henry is obviously one of the best ever. As a young player, I have learned a lot from him," the 21-year-old told ELF Voetbal.

“If I ever needed advice, he was there for me. And when I came, he was there to encourage me, and make me better.

“If there was anything [I could do] better, he noticed immediately. Thierry obviously knows how the game works."
