Theo Walcott: Sold to Everton

[ARSNLNO1]

I'm not Theo's biggest fan and personally I would like to see hi sold in the summer and for us to bring in Zaha. In saying that I would like to see how he plays in a 352 formation up front alongside Sanchez, Running into the free space is where Theo does the most damage.

 

[krackpot]

Yup, would be very interesting to see him a 3-4-3 or 3-5-2.

The problem is Walcott will inevitably be back until we actually get an alternative forward who fills the role of someone who specialises in making runs in behind defences. It is always cyclical. Walcott plays until he loses form and then he comes back when our play is too slow and ponderous and we need pace to stretch the opposition.

 

[Hyruga]

Thank you for not playing Walcott.

Ox did well in the right wing with good movement and good crosses and he provided the assist for the first goal.

Don't be harsh on him guys he just didn't want it more today

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

My favorite arsenal player. But I think he can be better at club like Liverpool.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

He such frustrating player he is great finisher nobody can deny that but we really need better player next season.

Theo is not effective playing against teams who defend deep. It's been like that since he's been here. He thrives off running behind the defensive line and today wasn't one of those days. Leicester were more than happy to sit deep and dare us to find a way through and Theo isn't the player for that. Wenger knew this and I couldn't understand why he left him on after half-time. Yes, there were times he looked like a deer in headlights but Sanchez gave the ball away far more than him. Let's not berate him like always after a performance like this...it was expected given the opposition's tactics.

The neon greenness of the boots affected his dribbling. Not quite his colour.

 

[Malky]

We're pissing money away paying Theo's wages! He's far to limited, barely looks like a footballer.

Saying that, He'll " want it more " when he's wanting a contract extension..

Get rid of him.

I was with you for the first four words...

Or on his way to another club

He does have a knack for scoring in big games, despite how frustrating he often is. Hopefully that continues if he plays vs Sp**s or in the cup final.

Haha sarcasm

 

[Ted_Lasso]

Nearly scored in the first half, but overall quite poor. Frustrating player, yes, but at least he has end product from time to time. Won't be long before Danny "hard worker" Welbeck starts getting the kind of relentless stick that Theo has gotten accustomed to.

 

[503error]

I remember when fans said not that long ago our best football always happened when Theo Walcott was on the pitch

I'd be happy they finally started waking up from that blatant lie (took them a decade though) if it wasn't for the fact that they're just moving that nonsense into Danny Welbeck.

 

[say yes]

1/10 performance.

 

[Trilly]

So bad

 

[karl]

I never know quite how to see Walcott. Useless footballer, who scores quite a few goals I guess.

 

[Hyruga]

Walcott becomes more direct this season. To his credit, he has become slightly better. Now he shoots immediately whenever the chance is good.

In the past, he was always indecisive in everything. Now's he fast at shooting but still very slow at passing and crossing. Still does not help out in defence much, being poor at heading and stopping crosses or tackling.

Arsenal should sell him and move him on. Oxlade plays much better as a right wing against Man City.
