Walcott Believes Arsenal Has Better Strikers Now Than 2006 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Wed Jan 21, 2015 12:43 am

Theo Walcott believes Arsenal's current strikers are better than what the club had in 2006.

Walcott joined the Gunners that year, playing alongside members of the 2003-04 'Invincibles' side such as Thierry Henry, Dennis Bergkamp and Robert Pires.

Walcott said teammates Alexis Sanchez, Olivier Giroud, Danny Welbeck and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are a stronger line-up.

He said: "I think this squad probably does beat it, but we need to prove it."

Walcott told the club's website: "When I came, it was Pires and Ljungberg, Bergkamp, Thierry and Reyes - that's some attacking force as well.

"When we go and achieve a little bit more than winning the FA Cup, then I think we can stand up and say this is the best attacking line up we've ever had."
