Ahead of the upcoming season, Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger insists that the team is focused and prepared to win at least two trophies.
Wenger has maintained he is out to win both the title and the Champions League this season.Having reached the last eight of the European Cup, the Gunners eventually finished only four points behind Premier League champions Manchester United and two from Chelsea, which was certainly a step in the right direction.
However, the last trophy won under Wenger was the FA Cup back in 2005 - and the French coach has made it perfectly clear where priorities lie this time around.
"But it is clear there are two trophies we are focused on - the Premier League and the Champions League.
"After that, the FA Cup, but we will never go seriously for the Carling Cup, again this year we will have the same philosophy on the Carling Cup.
"The Premier League and Champions League are the trophies we will fight for."
Meanwhile, Theo Walcott, supports the boss' notion of silverware for the season.
"If we all believe in ourselves, all believe in our team, I am sure
we can do anything," he told Sky Sports News. "All you have to do is
put your mind to it."Considering we haven't got a big squad, I
think it is quite good in a way that everyone can gel together, we know
how we play and it is easier when only a couple of players come in,
they can just settle in."
