Giroud: France can finish ahead of Spain The Arsenal attacker has admitted that les Bleus could be in for a tough task, but he remains hopeful that they can pull off an upset against the world and European champions The Arsenal striker believes that the reigning European champions are the best team in the world, but is nonetheless hopeful of causing an upset by pipping Spain to automatic qualification for the finals in Brazil. "Spain are benefiting from an incredible generation of players who have been performing together for a very long time. I don’t know if any team will ever be able to do better than they have. That said, from what I could see from the sidelines, I don’t think we were that far away from them during that quarter-final," Giroud stated to fifa.com . " Spain are the best team in the world, so it’s going to be difficult, but not impossible. We have to show some ambition. If we can win every one of our other matches, a

Theo Walcott believes the next month will be a major test of Arsenal’s credentials, but says they are ready for the challenge. Arsène Wenger’s side host Fulham, Tottenham and Montpellier in successive weeks, before travelling to Aston Villa and then Everton. It is a demanding schedule, but following their morale-boosting 2-2 draw at Schalke Walcott says Arsenal will go into these games in confident mood. “Schalke came at us in the second half and we found it difficult to be honest,” he told Arsenal Player. “But we dug deep and before the game we probably would have taken a point. “When you come to a difficult place with a difficult atmosphere, against a good team who beat us at home, [it was great] to get the two early goals. It is just a shame we couldn't kill it off, but it was a good point in the end. “It is going to be a tough month for us now. It is going to test us all, not just physically but mentally as well, and I think we are ready for it.” Walcott fought o

Emirates Stadium side keen on PSV Eindhoven teenager. Arsenal are reportedly running the rule over young Dutch international Jetro Willems as Arsene Wenger looks to ably add strength in depth to the left side of the Gunners defence. The teenage PSV Eindhoven starlet was part of Bert Van Marwijk’s Euro 2012 squad and is a player who has shown a great deal of potential since his move to the Philips Stadion in the summer of 2011. Willems has been a regular in Dick Advocaat’s PSV starting line-up this term, helping his side to an excellent start to the Eredivisie campaign where they sit just a point off leaders FC Twente. Wenger has seen Andre Santos produce a series of poor displays and the furore that followed his request for Robin Van Persie’s Man United shirt last weekend led to the Brazilian being dropped for the Champions League encounter with Schalke. Young England international Kieran Gibbs has impressed when called upon to fill the left-back slot but has suffe

Jack Wilshere has urged Arsene Wenger and Theo Walcott to reach a quick conclusion regarding the Arsenal winger's future.  Former Southampton man Walcott has been in protracted contract talks with the Gunners, with a deal yet to be reached and uncertainty clouding his future at the Emirates Stadium. But teammate Wilshere believes it is imperative that manager Wenger retains the England international, who scored in Arsenal's 2-2 Champions League draw at Schalke on Tuesday.  "Theo has been great," Wilshere told The Evening Standard. "His future is down to him and the boss to sort out. I hope he does sign. "He has been great for us. He's an English lad and great to have around." Wilshere has recently returned from injury after nearly 18 months on the sidelines, but picked up a red card against Manchester United that has ruled him out of Arsenal's Premier League match against Fulham this weekend.  "I am gutted to miss Fulham after be
