He should become an honourary Scotsman and save himself the heartache every 2 years of missing the squad :D

Would be surprised if we can give him away thanks to the ludicrous contract which he was awarded.

Apparently Liverpool have offered 25m for Walcott. If true, I just dont understand how this isnt accepted.

Holding onto players too long has been a weakness of Wenger for many years now. I fail to see why a 25m bid isnt accepted for a player who can only ever be a bit part player for us.

Just one of the Wenger equations in management and financial accumin =

Bang Average Players + Large Salaries + Long Contracts = Loyalty to Wenger No Matter What...aka: The Gravy Train & Easy Ride Equation.... I think it was Einstein (*) That called it the Wenger Wonga Theory.










(*) That's Einstein the dog from Back To The Future fame.

For a player who has done virtually nothing in his Arsenal career I wonder what the total cost has been. He has been here 9 years and cost 15 Million to start with. That's quite a lot of wasted money

Wait till an AKB comes out with a line like "you don't get loyal players like Theo anymore". Of course, there will be no mention of the fact any respectable club wouldn't touch him, or his completely undeserved wages. We must be the only club, in which incompetence is rewarded, be it from the manager, the playing staff, and the board.

As expected nobody is desperate to pay £20m+ and well north of £100k a week to take this useless excuse for a footballer off our hands.

Oh, thank God. Arsenal FC without Theo would just not be Arsene FC.
