Walcott targets Champions League success
Theo Walcott hopes that Arsenal can go a stage further in the Champions League this season.
Arsenal were easily beaten by Manchester United in last season's semi-finals, and were unlucky against Liverpool in the quarter-finals the season before.
The England international hopes that this year can be different for Arsenal, who he believes will have learned from their previous bad experiences in the competition.
He told the Sunday Mirror: "We've had disappointments in this competition over the last couple of years, Manchester United in the semis last year.
"We need to build on results. Hopefully, if it comes to it we'll learn from our mistakes and try to go one step further.
"We were very disappointed in the games we played [against United]. We want to do something for the fans."
The 20-year-old echoed his manager's recent statements, saying Arsenal can overcome United or Chelsea if they meet them in Europe again this year.
He added: "If we get an English team, it will be like a Premier League battle. We want to go that one step further."
