Arsenal midfielder Theo Walcott believes that the Gunners are better off without Cesc Fabregas and Samir Nasri.

He also claimed that Arsenal have grown up to become a better all-round team since both of them left.

"Cesc and Samir were great team players and you lose top players and everyone needs to come together," said Walcott.

Arsenal faced a torrid time during the start of the season after Fabregas and Nasri left for Barcelona and Manchester City respectively but now they are back in contention for a top four spot after a remarkable turnaround.

Walcott believes that the addition of new players in the team has done good to them and now they are more like a cohesive unit.

"The manager brought in some good additions and we are a bit more of a team now," he added.
