Theo Walcott maintains Arsenal's young Gunners will have learned lessons from last season's shortcomings - and has vowed they will bring some silverware to Emirates Stadium.
While most of the Arsenal first-team group have already returned to pre-season training, Walcott has been given extra time off to recover from a busy summer of international duty with the England Under-21s, who reached the European Championships final.
Holland international Robin van Persie, now signed up on a new, long-term deal, and captain Cesc Fabregas, who was away with Spain at the Confederations Cup, are also scheduled to link up with the squad ahead of the training camp in Austria, which will involve three matches before returning to London for the Emirates Cup.
Walcott knows when the action starts for real at Everton on August 15, Arsene Wenger's men have to prove they can turn potential into consistent results over the course of the campaign.
"It was a good learning curve for us all, but next year it is all about the trophies," he said in the July edition of the official Arsenal magazine.
"Hopefully we have had the years of experience now and can bring something back for the fans.
"For me it was an up-and-down season - you are never really going to have a perfect one, but I am happy that my [shoulder] injury has gone so that I can come back to Arsenal and win things."
