Arsenal will play Derby in the Premier League exactly five years after Arsène Wenger took over as manager. The day before the jubilee, he is for the first time criticised over tactics in public by one of his own players.

If the interpretation of Thierry Henry's comments on Soccernet are to be believed, the French striker hints at dressing room unrest.

"The most upsetting thing was that we didn't play," Henry says, bemoaning an apparent defensive game plan on the manager's part.

"In the second half we showed that if we wanted to play we could... I think that when you play for Arsenal the opposition have to be scared of us, not us scared of them."

The Mirror has been claiming that Dennis Bergkamp has echoed Henry's comments.
