Thierry Henry says Arsenal would have runaway with the Premier League this season if they had a 20-goal striker.

However, the Gunners legend is still backing his old club to win the title.

The Barcelona forward told the News of the World: "I would really like to have known what they could have done if they had a striker who could score 20 or more goals.

"If Robin van Persie had not got injured before Christmas, then who knows what might have happened?

"You would like to think that having him in your squad would give you an extra six or seven points.

"I still think they could become the first team, apart from Chelsea under Jose Mourinho, to win the league without a 20 or 30 goal-a-season striker.

"I thought even after the defeats against Manchester United and Chelsea recently that this team could win the Premier League."
