Walcott: This Arsenal team has everything to be Premier League winners

Former Arsenal winger Theo Walcott says they're now proving their title credentials.

Walcott insists Sunday's defeat of Manchester City can be a watershed moment for the team.

He told the BBC: "They broke the pattern [finally win versus City]. They last won when I was playing.

"Why can't they? I believe they have all the attributes to succeed.

"They obviously have the hurdle this time of playing midweek in the Champions League, which will take a toll on the squad, but you have got to believe.

"The experience they had last year, there is now a bit of extra fight in them.

"Everyone has improved this year, Arsenal have improved massively."
