Theo Walcott Retires

Godspeed Theo, you always stuck me as a bit boring, a bit grey. But a good bloke by all accounts

This was incident that Theo was on about as it completely crossed my mind. Ngl I couldn’t remember it:



I don’t blame RVP for trying to nail Aaron Ramsey

Always liked him. Although him retiring has to make you feel old…

For real. I remember doing A levels and him being the next Henry wenger had found

Walcott was always pretty useful more often than not, he was a victim of Henry comparisons and huge expectations but he was pretty productive in terms of goals an assists despite it being a major criticism early on. He was one of those players you knew could do something with service. I also believe his contribution in big games is pretty overlooked too. Assists against Milan and Liverpool, goals against Barca, Bayern and the likes. Good record in the league against the likes of Chelsea, Sp**s, United, City. ACL really killed his momentum though because I feel at that stage he was on the cusp of something. Let's not forget despite already going so much he was only 24 when it happened and had progressively been getting closer and closer to his peak. He initially did well on his return but had a poor second half to 15-16 and never really was a starter here again.
