Wenger confident Walcott will shine

Manager Arsène Wenger has expressed confidence in striker Theo Walcott, whom he says will soon show his immense potential.

Walcott scored his first and second league goals in the match against Birmingham City last week, and Wenger is backing him to score more.

Wenger said: "I felt after Theo had scored his first goal, you saw a different player.

"That is a positive, because it looks like it was a relief for him to score.

"Suddenly when he had confidence, he started to take more people on - and the second goal he scored is the goal I see more in training, but which I never saw before now in a competitive game."

Theo should not be afraid to take on defenders as he he has the killing skill and pace; but I think he should help the team defense by closing on on the opposition player who has he ball
