Arsenal defender Kolo Toure is confident that Arsene Wenger’s side can achieve success this season.

The Gunners had a dismal last season and the Ivory Coast international admitted that their inability to adjust to the Emirates Stadium was the reason behind their failure.

However, the 26-year-old declared that the north London club are now firing on all cylinders as they prepare for the top-of-the table clash against Manchester United on Saturday at home.

"This team can achieve, definitely. In the past we have had great sides with a great mentality," he is quoted as saying on BBC Sport.

"But we have talent (again) and we are all so young - Arsenal is the place to be as we're all focussed on winning."

He added: "Last season we struggled to adapt to playing in our new stadium but we are used to it now."
