Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah was proud to score in Saturday's 2-1 defeat of West Ham.

The young striker combined with Dani Ceballos just nine minutes after coming off the bench to secure all three points at Emirates Stadium on Saturday.

And now he's full of confidence going into this week's double-header against Leicester City and Liverpool.

"It was great," Nketiah said. "The boys fought really hard to get the win and to come on and get the winning goal is a nice feeling, so I'm really pleased.

"I do a lot of work trying to be in the right positions, to make sure I'm always available from wide crosses or when the ball is in the box, it was a nice pass from Dani Ceballos and it was a good finish from me.

"We want to be winning games and we want to be challenging for stuff. It's a great start and we're looking to build on it and keep pushing and hopefully get more points in the future.

"Everyone is raring to go, everyone is buzzing and we've had a taste of success and we're hungry for more. It's been a great start and we're looking to keep that going throughout the season.

"Leicester are a great team," Nketiah added. "We're in good form at the moment so we want to keep pushing. It's an important competition for us so we want to try and go all the way. It starts on Wednesday night."
