Henry: Arsenal players will be buzzing

Thierry Henry says Arsenal's "massive" 2-1 win over fierce rivals Tottenham in the Capital One Cup could have an impact on their form in the Premier League.

Mathieu Flamini netted either side of a Calum Chambers own goal to secure the win for Arsene Wenger's side on Wednesday and take them through to the fourth round of the League Cup.

Henry was pleased with Arsenal's mentality throughout the game and believes they can build some momentum from it.

"It is massive, it's huge," he said of the win on Sky Sports. "Let's fast forward a bit. You don't want to go to Leicester on Saturday having lost that game.

"They won the derby and you saw how they played. They fought well, they had character, it maybe wasn't flamboyant Arsenal, but they just won at White Hart Lane.

"They're going to be buzzing, there will be happiness around the dressing room and the training ground, and that's always better for them to prepare for the next game."

Arsenal have won three of their opening six Premier League games and sit five points behind leaders Manchester City.
