Calum Chambers wants to grab his chance with Arsenal during preseason.
The full-back has only started 30 Premier League games for the club since arriving five years ago.
The 24-year-old, who was a hot prospect at Southampton when he made the move to North London, wants to establish himself in the first team.
And he sees the current preseason as the best chance to impress boss Unai Emery.
Chambers said to reporters: "Arsenal's the club I'm at, it's the team I want to play for, so I am taking every day as it goes, enjoying being here, enjoying being with the lads and playing in the pre-season games.
"I like to stay positive about things, I love playing football and to get an opportunity to play for Arsenal is pretty amazing so I'm enjoying it, being back here with the lads, being with the manager and I'm really gaining from the experiences and learning from the training sessions I've had so far.
"It was amazing at Fulham [Chambers made 29 league starts and scored twice as the promoted Cottagers went straight back down]. I think for any player at any level, it's all about playing and game time, playing regularly and fortunately I got to do that last season and I feel I've gained experiences from it.
"I've learned a lot of things from it as I did from when I went to Middlesbrough [who were also relegated at the end of his season on loan, in which he started 24 Premier League games].
"As a team it was disappointing for Fulham but personally, as a player, I thought it was a good experience and good season for me. I feel good on the back of that, I feel confident, I'm looking forward to the season ahead. It helps you add things to your game and finally I can take that into the upcoming season.
"Again, I was concentrating on the games there and obviously the plan is now to stay at Arsenal, play there and see what I can do."
