yeah. i mean he definitely won't reach that figure with us, but i wanted a pacey striker to go with a target man, didn't expect to get both in this window. i'd still like us to go for bas dost in the summer for a big money move and the fact walcott can play winger is very handy too. We do have a range of attacking options now, we just need to know how to utilise them.

I'd love to see 3 behind the striker, alternative and rotating their positions all game, then to bring on players like lookman, vlasic and sandro, amongst others from the bench to keep that high intensity all game.

Fans moan we have no goals, but right now we have players who scored a lot last season (i know in different leagues, but also in europe), we see:

Tosun (14)
Walcott (19)
Klaassen (20)
Sandro (16)
Siggurdsson (10)
Rooney (8)
Niasse scored goals in our u23's and then at hull and now this season for us.

and then onyekuru (24) and (10 this season) to come in as well.

Goalscorers there, we're just failing to utilise them properly it seems.
Why do you say that mate?. That's at least the sort of figure we should be looking for from our wide men, over all competitions.

Remember he wasn't a regular starter with Arsenal, he was probably only on the pitch for about 50% of his game time there because they had such a big squad of quality players to choose from, and injuries of course. I expect him to get far more game time here if he stays fit.

Also, it may sound daft, but I'm not convinced that Arsenal's style of football suited him. They dominate possession and regularly come up against teams that park the bus. I think Walcott, with his pace, would be more effective on the counter, and I'm looking forward to seeing how he does when he has lots of space in front of him.
 

Around 12 - 17 seconds in.

"Theres a lot of players that are coming in"

Know something Theo ?
Probably just means in general we've brought in a whole new squad of players in 2 seasons basically. Still reckon there'll be a a lot more in and out between now and in summer though
