David Luiz has said he believes Arsenal can “shine” like in the past, assuring fans that he wants to help the club fight for Premier League titles.
Luiz, 32, who won the Premier League, Champions League and two FA Cups with his former club Chelsea, thinks Arsenal can challenge in all competitions this season.
“This club has the potential to shine like it has shone in the past. We have a lot of talent, we have players with a lot of quality,” Luiz said.
“I came here with the ambition to fight for the Premier League title, I want to fight for other competitions also.
“It was like that at the other clubs I have been at but it was not always easy, there were difficult moments.
“I am going to try to do my best every single day and try to help everyone to believe in this because I think this club can believe a lot because it has a lot of potential.
“Football is about the end not the beginning and we are going to have to try to fight to the end.”

Arsenal’s 100 per cent record at the start of the season came to an end after two goals from Mohamed Salah and a Joel Matip header condemned them to a 3-1 defeat at Anfield.
Luiz gave away a penalty after pulling Salah’s shirt in the second half, which the Egyptian international subsequently scored.
But despite this, the Brazilliona believes Arsenal have reasons to be optimistic, following their loss against the Premier League leaders.
“There is frustration always but I think you also have to be intelligent and mature to understand we did a lot of good things and we could have scored two or three goals before they did,” said Luiz.
“It is always difficult to play there. Not many teams will go there and get points. I think you have to be clever to take the positive things and think about the future.”
