Stoke City defender Geoff Cameron believes that his side cannot afford to show too much respect to Arsenal this weekend.

Stoke prepare to welcome Arsenal at the Bet365 Stadium on Saturday and ahead of the encounter, Potters defender Cameron has explained that his side need to intimidate the Gunners in order to be able to earn all three points from the clash.

Cameron said: "We will go for three points next weekend. No doubt about it, we know these are big games.

"The first six games of the season are the toughest, especially with our draw. We believe in ourselves and let everyone else doubt us. Inside the locker room we are positive.

"Last season was disappointing against Arsenal and we can all say we didn't play well. But if we go out with the attitude we showed at Everton - running, chasing down balls, getting in their faces - it will be tough for them.

"As you can see in their first game, Leicester made it very difficult for them and I'm sure they're kicking themselves because they deserved more. We can look at that and go forward."
