Theo Walcott

JazzG

Good ol Hill Wood, I bet the Daily Star show up with a bottle of rum to his house every so often before an interview with him. Since I can remember this guy always stirring things up and saying the wrong things, surely someone at the club would of had a word by now....

Rex

Any news on Theo's injury?

Ashley Walcott ‏@ashwalcott
Theo's fine

asajoseph

So long as he hasn't injured his pen hand...

Rex

Not that he is planning on using it...

Burnwinter

Bruised lung apparently.

Doesn't sound too serious.

AAStyle

Bump.

Should we keep theo?

I am Arsenal Till I Die

Yes.

He's an asset.

Qwiss

He's been missed this season. We should definitely sign him up. He's not a world beater but he is a game changer and we have too few of those.

Rohit

Yeah, the team will work much better with Walcott starting on the right, may be even centrally.

I am Arsenal Till I Die

He'd do much better than Gervinho has for instance.

Qwiss

He's by far our best option on the right. And to be fair he's got a decent argument for a chance up top at the moment too.

est

Just give him the 100k or whatever he wants. Best winger we have. We're so much more threatening with him in the side.

Qwiss

Who was saying that, you?

ludovicvanzis

We did look better without Theo in the team. But it's a squad game. And right now the likes of Podolski are off form and Theo, from what we've seen, looks quite good. So we should use him.

kamikaze

Sell him. Standards at this club are dropping so low when some people think Theo is an important player.

asajoseph

It's not that people think he's a good player. It's the fact that he's a better player than our alternatives that makes him important.

lorddulaarsenal

Exactly. Will be criminal if we don't bring in a class act for our front three in January

kamikaze

Don't think we should overpay Theo just because our squad is shit. That's how we ended up wasting van Persies money on Squillaci, Park, Arshavin, Chamakh, etc. I don't see the point in keeping the same shitty players but paying them more. Offer Theo an appropriate contract for a squad player, and if he doesn't accept, then sell.

The need to buy top class forwards is obvious and has nothing to do with Theo.

asajoseph

I'd say we should pay Theo in line with what a player of his abilities and profile can command on the open market.

Or at least, that's what I think he's entitled to ask for, and given our other options, I think we should give it to him.
