Arsenal's Walcott has two games to convince England boss Capello

Theo Walcott hopes to use Arsenal's final two Premier League games of the season to convince England boss Fabio Capello that he should be in the Three Lions World Cup squad. The 21 year old knows how important it is to finish the season in good form, especially with competition for places in Fabio Capello's final 23-man squad for South Africa increasing.

"I have not played much this season and I feel fresh, so hopefully the more games I get to play, the better I will be and I will get to be on the plane," said Walcott, who has four goals from 28 appearances, 15 off the bench.

"The World Cup is the biggest dream of all for every boy - everyone dreams of a 1966 moment, at least I know I do.

"Hopefully we can make it another one.

"We believe we can win it and we will do everything to bring the World Cup back home - it has been too long."
