Thierry Henry has pleaded with teenage striker Theo Walcott to join Arsenal.
The Gunners are locked in a battle with Chelsea for the 16-year-old Southampton sensation.
Henry said: "There are a lot of teams trying to get him but if he can join us then I would welcome him here and he would be a benefit.
"People are saying there are similarities (between the pair) and it's good to hear what he said about me. I first saw him play in the Youth Cup and I saw him as a player with great pace and a lot of tricks."
