i think he is bieng rested, newcastle will beat the shit outa him if he plays, and then that fat elbowing *word censored* will do him in training with england.

wise to pick up a slight nock right now with all the cup games comming up

according to a "source" of arseblogger the injury isn't as bad as first feared.

Let's hope that's the case.

Maybe AW has learned a lesson from Ole Rednose and managed to get him out of the England squad only to have a miraculous recovery in time for the next league game

Wenger - Walcott 'distraught' at new injury

http://www.arsenal.com/news/news-archiv ... new-injury
[quote]Theo Walcott is distraught at the knee injury that could keep him out until the start of May, according to ArsÃ¨ne Wenger.

Incredibly, the England winger suffered the problem as he was walking back after training. His right knee â€˜locked up then swelled upâ€™, probably the result of a knock in the previous session.

Speaking at his press conference an hour later, Wenger had yet to assess the full extent of the problem. But if it is a cartilage problem, the 20-year-old could be out until the final few weeks of the season. It would be a bitter blow given that Walcott has made just two starts following four months out with a shoulder injury.

â€œHe is completely distraught,â€
