Arsenal legend Thierry Henry feels a fully fit William Saliba makes the difference to manager Mikel Arteta's system.

The Frenchman says Saliba's physical qualities brings the system together.

Henry said: “Arsenal use that 3-1-3-3 formation - which is six players in front of the ball. It's about the coach trusting their defenders to be quicker, faster and recover the ball. Then they can play a little bit more attacking football.

“But you could see the difference when Saliba was playing and got injured.

"Mikel will tell you himself that it's not the same way they can play."
