Theo Walcott Says Arsenal Have Been the Best Team in Europe This Year

To quote Liverpool owner John Henry: "What do you think they're smoking over there at Emirates?"

Arsenal have no doubt been in good form in recent months, but it looks like Theo Walcott has gone a little bit overboard.ย 

He said, as per the official Arsenal website, that the Gunners have been the best side in Europe in 2015:ย "In this calendar year, weโ€™ve been the best team in Europe. Itโ€™s the strongest the squad has been and everyone is staying fit as well. There arenโ€™t many injuries in the squad, which is important. If we had an injury-free season, I think we could lift the title."

To be fair, Arsenal have lost just twice in the Premier League in 2015โ€”to Southampton and Tottenhamโ€”but they did also crash out of the Champions League in the last 16 to Monaco.

Champions League semi-finalists Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid might have something to say about Walcott's claims.ย
