Theo Walcott has said that Arsenal are capable of competing in the Premier League title race.

The Gunners needed a win on the final day of the season to secure a fourth-place finish, sealing the club a place in next season's Champions League.

The winger told The Sun: "I think this Arsenal team can achieve anything. We should be competing for the Premier League every year, that's our first priority.

"In every competition we can go far, as long as we believe we can. We need to realise how good we really are because, at times, we don't think that.

"When we go a goal down you do see the players stepping up. And if we do that from the start we can beat anyone."

Walcott scored 21 goals in all competitions for Arsenal over the last season.
