Joel Campbell has stated that pressure is part and parcel of playing for a big club such as Arsenal.

While it has been another poor season for Arsenal, one of the positives for the Gunners has been the promising performances of winger Campbell over the course of the campaign.

Campbell has now gone on to speak regarding his experience this term and has stated that the pressure of playing for a big club like Arsenal has brought out the best in him.

The Costa Rican international told the Arsenal Player: "It is really intense and when I thought about playing in England, I knew that the football here would challenge me a lot and that it would be both very fast and technical.

"It is not harder than I expected. It is a competitive league, the games are really end-to-end, it is really fast and I'm really happy to be part of Arsenal and playing in the Premier League.

"You have to be very committed to the team, you have to have quality and you need to give your all. Pressure is always going to be there, and even more so at a club like Arsenal that is always fighting to achieve things.

"We feel the pressure to win every game, which isn't a bad thing, and when you're a big team there is pressure from all sources - social media, the fans and from within the club. There is always going to be pressure on the team to be the best."
