Wenger on Walcott's performance

Manager Arsène Wenger was full of praise for England striker Theo Walcott after yesterday's match against Sunderland.

Walcott demonstrated calmness to score the only goal of the game, giving Arsenal a win on their last day of the season.

The former Southampton teenager has been banging on the door of the first team, and has put in some noticeable performances this season.

Wenger said: "He can be dangerous and he can make a difference.

"He has gone from a promising kid to a fine player who is ready to fight for a regular place in the team, what do you expect at 19 years of age?

"To be capable to do that at 19 years of age is a special talent."
