Theo Walcott will be more than happy to erase his personal accolades, if it means winning a trophy for Arsenal at the end of next season.
Walcott, who completed 250 appearances for Arsenal when he played against Sunderland in February, is enjoying his best ever season in the top flight, and after committing his future to the club, wants to kick on.
The Gunners have now gone without a trophy for eight years, their last major piece of silverware coming with the F.A. Cup in 2005, when they beat Manchester United in penalties.
"I would personally take all of (my) appearances away to win something at this club," he told Arsenal Player. "Some people may think I'm mad but I think I'm not selfish. I like to think for the club and the fans.
"Appearances are great but winning things means more. Hopefully next season, when I hopefully reach 300 appearances, there will be a trophy on the end of that. That's the biggest target.
"I'm very proud of that (reaching 250 appearances). I've worked hard through all the lows and the highs. This season especially, there have been a lot of highs. It's a nice positive. I don't want it to stop there. I want to continue to play and get back fit soon. It's a fantastic achievement and I'm very happy."
Walcott believes he has now become a more well-rounded player, and thinks he is one of the leaders in the side, with players and supporters expecting the 24-year-old to come up with something special time and again when the team needs it the most.
"I've definitely matured as a player," he added. "I've always been the same sort of person off the pitch. I've always got time for people. I think at times, the players might look for something to come from nowhere and at times that's maybe (up to) me or the likes of Jack (Wilshere).
"This season has been my best goalscoring and assist-making season. I can see why people may think that now. That's been the biggest step for me.
"The assists are something I'm very proud of. A lot of those come from the wing as well. An assist is just as important as getting a goal."
