Walcott urges Arsenal to take hold of trophies

Theo Walcott wants Arsenal to step back into the winners circle after a barren run of eight years.

The Gunners have not won anything since the 2005 FA Cup and Walcott is determined to help the North London club arrest that uncharacteristic streak of failures after managing to clinch fourth spot this season.

"Our next step is to win something, that's our goal and that's got to happen," Walcott told talkSPORT. "[Finishing fourth] was testament to the spirit at Arsenal. There is a lot of belief.

"The players believe in each other. We didn't really take too much interest in the outside and knew the job that we had to do. We didn't want to let the fans down.

"It just shows what a fantastic job [Wenger has] done. Hopefully he'll be here for many, many years to come."
