Thierry Henry reckons Arsenal are just one, pretty humongous signing away from the league title

He stopped short of saying Aston Villa are just Cristiano Ronaldo away from winning the league.

Thierry Henry is sure Arsenal can challenge for the Premier League title this season, if they just splash another fortune on a world class striker. But it definitely isn't that Chicharito chancer anyway. The Arsenal legend apparently isn't convinced that unleashing Theo Walcott through the middle at the Emirates is the answer to their decade of hurt. Instead, he's found the one tiny, expensive missing piece to the jigsaw. Karim Benzema. Speaking on TalkSPORT, Henry sounded exactly like he and every other Arsenal fan sounds like at the start of every August. “I always say it’s their year," he said but, of course, why would that teach him anything? There are always buts. "But there is a genuine buzz around the place right now. “I think they can challenge this year, for real," he said... if... "If they stay injury-free." And not to mention if they can also add one of the best strikers in world football into their team. “But sometimes you need a different type of striker and I think that if they can get Benzema, suddenly they are a real title contender and also in the Champions League.”
