Arsenal winger Theo Walcott believes that his game has reached a new level during the course of the current campaign and that he is now a more complete player than in previous seasons.

The lightning-quick 21-year-old has bagged 11 goals in only 20 starts for the Gunners this season, and has produced some scintillating moments along the way.

This has come in spite of injuries disrupting his career once again, but despite these problems, Walcott is delighted with the progress that he has been making.

“I’m happy with what I’ve given to the team and think I’ve learned the game more,” he told Arsenal’s official matchday programme ahead of their weekend draw with Liverpool.

“I’m putting in balls for people to gamble on which I think they are getting used to, so hopefully that will continue and I can keep on improving.

“I definitely think my goals and assists have stood out, given that I’ve missed 12 or 13 weeks through injuries I couldn’t prevent.”
