Theo Walcott believes victory over Bayern Munich will make upcoming opponents wary of Arsenal and has sent a clear message of their intent this season.
Walcott impressed as Olivier Giroud and Mesut Ozil struck in the second half to beat Bayern 2-0 at the Emirates on Tuesday - their first win in the Champions League's Group F.
Ahead of their clash with Everton on Saturday, which is live on Sky Sports 1HD, Walcott says confidence is high in the team.
"You play against the best in the Champions League and Bayern are a top-class team - but we showed our class," the England forward said.
"The confidence is just flowing through the team at the moment, you can see that. Results show it and, if we continue this, you never know where it's going to take us. We are looking really strong.
"We have been fantastic in the Premier League. The two games in the Champions League before weren't great, but I think a lot of teams are starting to be a bit wary of our confidence.
"This result can't just be a one-off. We need to keep on doing it. But what we want is for teams to be wary of us. We want to put out a message and Tuesday night can hopefully show that.
"We've still got a lot to do to qualify and we won't get ahead of ourselves because our focus now is on the Premier League.
"That next game against Bayern is a long way ahead but if we beat Bayern, we can beat anyone."
