..Arsenal's Nicklas Bendtner has reiterated his aim to be acknowledged as one of the best strikers in the world within the next five years.
The Denmark international was recently named his country's Player of the Year and also won a Goal of the Year award as he met personal targets for 2009.
After also helping Denmark to qualify for the 2010 World Cup, Bendtner has now set himself new objectives.
Despite the probability that he is sidelined until the New Year with a groin problem, the 21-year-old wants to become the top scorer in the Premier League and World Cup and wants to be recognised as one of the best marksmen on the planet.
He said in the Daily Mirror: "I had three aims this year - to get into the Arsenal team, qualify for the World Cup and to be Player of the Year. I have achieved them all.
"I want to be top scorer in the Premier League, top scorer at the World Cup and, within five years, I want to be among the best strikers in the world."
Love the lads confidence! good to see him recognized as Denmarks best footballer, im pretty sure he will prove to be a top centre forward, looking forward to seeing him properly for Denmark during the World Cup
ive got a lot of time for bendtner. unlike a few on here who would like shot of him, i think he can save us £££ in looking for a striker. atm, i personally would just use him as an impact sub, for the last 20-30 mins, and start the odd game. no doubt at times he dose look clumbsy, but thats more to do with wenger playing him on the wing. play him up front with rvp, or eddie, and i believe he can be a 15-20 premier league goals a season striker.
I myself have 3 aims this year.
1. To win the lottery
2. To wake up one morning and be 21 again
3. To be irresistible to beautiful women (see aim 1)
All of these I firmly believe are every bit as achieveable as Nic's aim of becoming one of the best strikers in the world.

How do you feel about Robbie Keanes chances of being one of the Worlds best? or perhaps Jermain Defoe?
