Arsenal winger Walcott aims for full time strikers role

Arsenal and England international Theo Walcott believes has ambitions to become an out-and-out striker over the next couple of years. The 20 year old has played almost exclusively on the right flank so far in his career.

"I spoke to the boss and he wants to sort of gradually move me into a striker role," Walcott told the Daily Express. "I'll happily play anywhere for this club.

"But no-one has seen me as a striker at the moment, which is my main position, so I'll be working well on that in the next couple of years."
