2018/19 Theo Walcott

[Lapeno77]

He highlights the dangers of singing players aged 28+ from the CL teams. We used to laugh at Newcastle for doing the same thing, but we've surpassed that. Schneiderlin, Siggurdson and now this guy.

Turkey or China beckons I think

 

[everton1953]

As long as he does not play for us again. How could Silva pick him again?

China or the US I think. He's done at this level.

 

[davids]

Surprising how fast his game has nose dived,but then that applies to most of the side.

 

[PhilRegan]

He's practically got one leg at Southampton. His heart has never been in this move for me. Down south beckons in the summer.

The thing is though he is not injured and he has not lost his pace.. his form is shocking maybe he has not settled here
The manager should try find a new position for him possibly playing off the striker in a central role

 

[blulouie]

Doesn't look the player we signed this time last year does he?

This

Glad we signed him at the time as it gave us much needed balance on the right , with his pace and an abililty to ghost in behind defenders which usually ended with a goal or at least an assist.
He was a real constant threat upto and including Bournemouth away ( his best game for us imo)
Sadly this has all disappeared now , not sure what it is , but he doesnt look like he can be bothered anymore as it looks more than just a drop in form.
Maybe a long spell on the bench coming on late in games , as he clearly doesnt earn a start for me.

exactly, there was not a huge amount of options when he left Arsenal and he was in a bit of a last chance saloon as his career had completly dropped off a cliff, so he really needed to try and settle as much as possible tbh. I just don't think that he is that good tbh, even at Arsenal it was always in flashes.

 

[StateSideToffee]

I am all for supporting our players through bad runs of form. Unfortunately Walcott’s form has been so detrimental to the squad; high turnover rate, and lack of effort on defense, that it is time he’s given a long spell on the bench in favor of Lookman in the starting 11.

 

[dwightschrute]

He's always been just above average, and has been poor for years, Arsenal fans were mostly glad to see him gone

 

[Paulie]

Massive disappointment. I thought he was making a statement coming up here and out of his comfort zone at Arsenal. Thought it'd be a bit of a Swan song for him. Unfortunately, it's seems he was playing to try and get in the England squad for the WC.

They never do

He’d be perfect in MLS if I’m honest. Could see a side like NYRB going for him if they could work it out financially.
