When Thierry Henry set an impressive time of 4.82 seconds over 40-metres, no-one at Arsenal fancied the club record would be troubled for some time.
Less than five years later and Theo Walcott was the new record holder. The English attacker blazed through the track, set up at the Gunner's Islington training ground, in an astounding time of 4.42.
That time, however, was bettered by young Spanish defender Hector Bellerin.
Bellerin, who scored Arsenal's opener in last weekend's 4-1 win over Liverpool, shaved a hundredth of a second off Walcott's time. The club record is now 4.41 and has yet to be improved upon.
When Bolt set his 100m world record back in 2009 (a ridiculous 9.59 secs), he was officially timed going through 40m in 4.64 secs. That means, halfway down the track, Bellerin could have been a good couple of metres in front.
