Arsenal new boy Alexis Sanchez is aiming to win titles at the Premier League Club after staring in their 5-1 win over Benfica and 1-0 defeat to Monaco.

Sanchez was given a warm welcome by Arsenal fans as he started his first game for the club against Monaco on Sunday, which they lost 1-0.

Sanchez said that what is important for him now is to try to play games, to score as many goals as possible and to win titles, The Daily Star reported.

The 33 million pound man said that of course he loved the reception from the fans. He said that he is extremely thankful to all of them and is extremely happy and hopes that he can make them very happy as well.

Sanchez came off the bench in the 5-1 win over Benfica on Saturday before starting in the 1-0 defeat to Monaco and has admitted that he is not yet fully fit.

The former Barcelona player also admitted that he would need time to adapt to English football after spending most of his career in Spain and Italy.

But he already loves the way Arsenal play and said that he likes this style of football.

Sanchez added that what it is important now is to play and get fit. He said that he has to go step by step, as he has only trained twice with the team.

Sanchez said that he just has to keep on working hard and training.
