Theo Walcott: 'This is Arsenal's best squad in the 10 years I've played here'

Theo Walcott praises the current Arsenal lineup and says that it is the best squad he's played with in the 10 years he's been with the club.

Theo Walcott has praised the current Arsenal lineup and has said that it is the best squad he has played with in the 10 years he has been with the club.

The English winger ended the season in style, as he netted a hat-trick on the last day of the season in the Gunners' 4-1 win over West Bromwich Albion.

Arsenal finished third in the league, an improvement on last season's fourth-place finish, but Walcott believes that the current squad can now challenge for the Premier League title.

"Overall finishing third is a step up from last year, but as I've said before we need to be really challenging for that Premier League," Walcott told talkSPORT.

"Personally, I've been there ten years and this is the best squad I've actually been involved in."

The 26-year-old could start for Arsenal in this weekend's FA Cup final against Aston Villa.
