Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is continuously working on his game and admits he is currently looking to provide more of a threat in the final third.
The 18-year-old, who joined Arsenal from Southampton last summer, has figured prominently in Arsene Wenger's plans over recent weeks, having initially been eased into the fold.
He has already netted his first goals for the Gunners in the Premier League, UEFA Champions League and Carling Cup and has been touted as a contender for a place in England's Euro 2012 squad.
Rapid progress may have been made, but Oxlade-Chamberlain is refusing to get caught up in the hype.
He is aware that he is far from the finished article and appreciates that he must add an end product to his game if he is to be a top Premier League performer for many years to come.
"I scored a few goals at Southampton, but it's a big area of an attacker's game and it's one I've always wanted to work on particularly," Oxlade-Chamberlain told the Official Arsenal Magazine.
"When I was younger I scored quite a lot but that dropped off as I got older and went into midfield. It's something I always look to bring to my game - and if I can't score then at least I can set somebody up."
Confidence
Oxlade-Chamberlain concedes that he has already exceeded all expectations this season, but insists he will not allow himself to get complacent.
"To be honest, when I arrived in August the main thing was just to get comfortable with my surroundings and gain in confidence," he added.
"Hopefully I already had the raw materials. I've learned a lot here and developed my game, but the main thing has been belief in myself. When you play in a few games and realise that maybe you can cope in the Premier League you do take confidence from it.
"That's what I've done - I do thrive on pressure and being put into these situations, and I'm looking to push on now."
