Arsenal great Thierry Henry insists a new striker signing shouldn't be the priority this summer.

Henry insists there's quality in the current squad.

Asked if a new striker could be the difference for Arteta, Henry said: “Goals can come from anywhere, as Man City showed us this season.

"When you look at it, who would have said City would win the league without Aguero?

“So I think if you have a certain style you can share goals. It doesn't always have to be the No.9 that has to deliver the goals in the modern game.

“When you look at the Arsenal team, is it a better squad than West Ham? I would say yes.

“Is it better than Leicester's? I would like to say yes, but then Leicester are still ahead.

“It is capable of finishing in the higher positions, although you don't have the squad of Man City or Chelsea or United."
