Theo Walcott: 'Past experience has helped goalscoring this season'

Arsenal winger Theo Walcott admits that not dwelling on past mistakes has helped him in front of goal this season.

Arsenal winger Theo Walcott has admitted that not dwelling on mistakes has helped him improve in front of goal this season.

The 24-year-old has scored 18 goals this season in 36 appearances for the Gunners in all competitions, his highest tally for the club since joining in 2006.

Walcott told the club's official website: "I think the big thing this season is that I don't ever want the games to end. I'm really enjoying every second of being out there. I just enjoy every game.

"I don't really think about mistakes too much anymore. That's another side of it - not dwelling on something that's happened previously in the game.

"Also I'm not thinking too much in front of goal, I'm just doing what comes naturally to me - that's finishing, and it's working so far anyway!"

Walcott has helped Arsenal reach fifth in the Premier League, with nine games left to play this season.
