Aaron Ramsey: 'Theo Walcott is a goalscorer'

Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey believes that teammate Theo Walcott can have a big impact in the Gunners' attack this season.

Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey has suggested that teammate Theo Walcott can have a big impact in attack this season.

The England international, who is usually deployed as a winger, ended last season in a central striking role and went on to score a hat-trick in the Gunners' final Premier League match of the campaign against West Bromwich Albion.

Ramsey has stated that Walcott could increase his tally of 76 goals for the North Londoners at a healthy rate.

"He did very well at the end of last year," Ramsey told Arsenal's official website. "He's had a good pre-season. He looks sharp, he looks strong and he can be dangerous.

"He is a goalscorer - he has a load of goals for Arsenal and I think he can carry that on and maybe get into the 100 club this year. He's a very strong character. He believes in his abilities and he definitely has a lot of qualities to offer.

"He can finish - one of the hardest things to do in football is to put the ball in the back of the net and he's done it on numerous occasions for Arsenal. Hopefully he can continue doing that."

Arsenal host West Ham United on Sunday in their first league match of the season.
