http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Theo-Walcott-c34873 has gone on to state that he does not care much about personal achievements, as he feels it is more important for the team to end up finishing the season in the top four, as opposed to anything else.
The attacker went on to score for the North London club once again in their game this past weekend, as the Gunners took on QPR. The match ended with Arsenal winning by one goal to nil, thanks to the goal that the mercurial attacker scored.
This latest goal scored by the striker now sees his tally go all the way to twenty, making him the leading goal scorer for the team this season. However, despite this fact, the striker feels that it is more important for the team to end the season in the
top four, as opposed to him just going on to achieve personal success.
When talking about his goal the forward went on to emphasise on this fact, and insisted that he wanted the team to go on and play every game like it was their last, since that was the only way they were going to end up finishing the season in the top four.
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 international is reported to have said: "[Twenty goals] was my target for the season. I said a few weeks back that I was short on goals but I wanted the team to be where we should be rather than [reaching] my personal goals.”
"I really want us to get Champions League football because we deserve it. We have been up and down this season, and so have a lot of clubs, but we are getting the points on the board now when it matters.”
"Every game this season is very difficult - for example, Tottenham only scored their winner in the last five minutes [against Southampton].”
He then went on to further add: "Every game is tight and everyone is fighting for their lives. We know teams will have to come at us but we have great strength on the counterattack and hopefully we can utilise that."
