Jubilant with FA Cup title win over Aston Villa, Arsenal forward Theo Walcott has said that the team's next target should be to win the Premier League trophy.
Walcott scored the first goal for his side as the Gunners comfortably defeated Aston Villa 4-0 in the final at Wembley.
Walcott said that the Premier League has to be the next target for them, the BBC reported.
He said that this was one of the best squads they have had at Arsenal and, therefore, should be achieving more, insisting that they need to start well in the Premier League next year.
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger, who has guided the team to two trophies in two seasons after eight campaigns without winning any major title, expressed his delight and said the side has shown that they can deal with pressure.
Wenger insisted that he has two more years of his contract and his hunger was great.
Arsenal, which stood third in the Premier League's point tally, has not won the title league since 2003-04 season.
