Theo Walcott has claimed that the current crop of attacking players at Arsenal has the potential to be better than the strikeforce which guided the club to the final of the Champions League in 2006.
The Gunners have scored the third highest number of goals in the Premier League this season, with Alexis Sanchez netting almost a third of their strikes with 12 in the campaign.
Walcott feels that the Chile international, along with Olivier Giroud, Danny Welbeck, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and himself, could be better than the group of attackers of 2006, which included Thierry Henry, Robert Pires and Dennis Bergkamp.
He told the club's official website: "When I came, it was Pires and [Freddie] Ljungberg, Bergkamp, Thierry and [Jose Antonio] Reyes - that's some attacking force as well. I think this squad probably does beat it, but we need to prove it first.
"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.
"It is a headache for the manager when you have that many great attacking options."
Arsenal are currently fifth in the Premier League following their 2-0 win over Manchester City on Sunday.
