Thierry Henry suffered defeat in his first match as Monaco head coach losing 2-1 loss at Strasbourg on Saturday in the French Ligue 1.

The Principality club have lost 11 matches to drop to the relegation zone.

The principality club have failed to win in 11 games in all competitions this season.

Monaco, who were runners-up to PSG last season, are now 24 points adrift of the reigning champions after they cruised to a 5-0 thrashing of Amiens at the Parc des Princes despite resting several key players.

A dreadful error by Monaco’s third-choice goalkeeper Seydou Sy gifted Strasbourg midfielder Adrien Thomasson an early opener, and substitute Samuel Grandsir was sent off midway through the second half.

“It wasn’t easy, we tried to put something in place which worked at the beginning, and then we conceded that goal that I don’t need to describe… Human error, I don’t want to wipe the floor with anyone.

“Then we tried to change the game, and unfortunately Sam (Grandsir) is sent off. After that it was even harder.

“But I want to keep positive despite the negatives, otherwise you don’t move forward, and the positive thing is that we tried to keep playing, even with 10.” said the 41-year-old.
