2018/19 Theo Walcott

[COYBL25]

Isn't he from Yorkshire?

Grew up, secondary school near Newbury. Scored 100 goals in a season for AFC Newbury.

 

[The binman chronicles]

Defo a bit of unfairness here, if we had a right back as good Digne then his game would instantly be transformed. And I don't think we should be putting all our hopes on Lookman cementing his place just yet either, a couple of good games does not make him a guaranteed starter, wingers blow hot and cold, it's the nature of the beast.

Have to see if his form improves but I still think he has a part to play here.

 

[messymascot]

I like Walcott but it was right for him to drop to the bench. He makes some clever runs and his pace pins teams back. Now we have Lookman looking a little better that side we can maybe start selecting on who is best suited against which opposition. Walcott is ideal against a marauding left back as there will be space left behind. With Niasse and possibly Tosun going out the fact he can play up top is an additional string to his bow.

 

[BlueToff]

He's still useful. His movement and pace get him in goalscoring positions.

He should have hit 8 or 9 goals already this season, not 4.

Up until December i do think he was playing well/ok. Last six weeks he's dropped off.

Doesn't mean he needs selling, at least not yet.

 

[deipnosophist]

I'd like to see him put his head up a bit more and look for teammates possibly in a better position than himself to ripple the onion net. Raheem Sterling is good at this.

He's actually from Compton.

Compton, West Berkshire

Think he was born in Stanmore Steve. Plus he also played down south most of his life.

 

[Strikinglyhandsome1]

He’s never fully moved up here, which is part of the problem. His footballing ability is still in storage at a lock up in Finsbury Park.

Give him a game up too. Done well at arsenal up top me can’t be any worse than what we got. We he could be and probably will be but it’s something.

 

[ToffeeTim]

We're missing his runs in behind badly. Bernard, Siguurdson and Lookman all want to play in front of the defence. Which is fine. But we need a balance and that 3 can't provide it.

Played 26 times upfront and scored 14 in his career. Could be an option.

 

[GwladysBlue]

Sell him.

 

[ijjysmith]

As absolutely awful as he's been this season, I do feel we play slightly better with him in the team.

What an Everton issue to have.

 

[Parker]

He is absolutely garbage on the wing. Its interesting though that he hasn't been tried up front at all considering thats where he always seen himself mixed with us having no decent strikers.
