In-form Arsenal forward Theo Walcott has revealed that he has already earned himself a new coffee machine after reaching the 10-goal mark for the season.
But Walcott is far more concerned about the Gunners building on their good start to the season and finishing with something to show for their efforts.
The England man is enjoying his best goal scoring campaign since he netted 21 in 2012/13, and he bagged his 10th of the term, and the 100th club goal of his career, when he equalised during Saturday's 3-1 defeat of Stoke.
And the 27-year-old revealed after the match that he had placed a friendly bet with his wife that he would reach double figures before Christmas.
"Time to get the coffee machine my wife promised me!" said Walcott.
"I've got my 10 for the season at the moment - I want to make it much, much more.
"More importantly, I want this team to win something, but it is all down to hard work.
"I've been working really hard and I think it's just breeding into the whole team, and that's what the team is about."
Arsenal came from behind to defeat Stoke, with Alex Iwobi coming off the bench to get the crucial third goal which made the points safe.
And Walcott thinks the Gunners have the strength in depth to maintain a title push, having not been beaten in the Premier League since the opening weekend.
"It's going well for us at the moment," he told the Arsenal website.
"The use of the squad as well - I can't praise enough the amount of players that are ready when they're called upon.
"Obviously like Alex - 2-1 is not a nice sort of score at the time but he had a fantastic finish, after great work from Alexis [Sanchez]."
