When you read how he wouldnt take people on on the outside and kept coming inside it is exactly how Wenger asks him to play for Arsenal!!! and what frustrates everyone so muchBasil is a Gooner wrote:http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sp ... lcott.html
Others have written that they are gutted for Theo. Me too.hopefully his confidence isnt completely shattered
That is exactly the problem, Theo is being played in a position that simply is not his position. Theo in the centre or as a fluid attacking wing role where he gets between the full-back and the centre half. This is why he is useful as an impact sub, not as a wingman that you play from the start and expect to whip in numerous pin-point crosses.
This sounds most likely. Anyone who saw his rugby post-esque crosses at Burnley last December will know exactly how bad his crossing is, even when under no pressure at all.Basil is a Gooner wrote: http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sp ... hance.html
how can you feel sorry for this waste of space asks radford. walnut has consistantly failed, failed failed and yet he keeps on picking up a whopping £65,000 a week.proudtosaythatname wrote:worthing_gooner wroteOthers have written that they are gutted for Theo.

Forget football for a second: this is a young guy whose hopes were raised by Sven, taken to the 2006 World Cup - and didn't get on the pitch. Now once again his hopes have been raised and dashed to the ground, for what is beginning to look like a "show him who is boss" reaction from Capello (if the report is true). Sympathetic, nurturing management? Vomit.
And for what has Theo been left out? SWP - OK, but Emile Heskey? Two goals - Azerbaijan and Burnley and (according to 5 Live yesterday) 8 shots on target all season!
Theo hasn't had a good season, though he has had a few good assists and goals and with a bit more accuracy from Bendtner those stats might be even better. So for those of you who think this is good for Arsenal, I hope Theo's confidence is not completely destroyed.
It's put me off all things World Cup for now, but if the interest does return - as I think it will - I think I might support Leo Messi and Argentina rather than Lumpard, Cashley, Wayno and the lumbering Emile.
He was warming up in front of me prior to the West Ham game and the crosses were brutal then too.Bring Back Pires wrote:This sounds most likely.

I don't think Heskey is going as a rightwinger but as the target man that Rooney, Lampard, Walcott and co played off so well in qualification.proudtosaythatname wrote:

radford says that waddle is spot on over his observations of theo theo walnut. what has the boy blunder done since the croatia game for engerlund?rigsby wrote:Chris Waddle is a tosser. Who can remember his brilliant observation of Theo against Croatia, that he 'didn't really do much in the game'
Because he comes across as a decent lad, and a football player that is down to earth. How many football players can you say that about nowadays? Compare him to the likes of bentley and pennant and you'll see the difference in their attitudes and how some let the fame get to their heads, whilst in walcott's case he's kept his feet on the ground. Don't see him stumbling out of any nightclubs, haven't seen him shagging his team mates' mrs, havent seen him have any run ins with the law.Radford149 wrote:how can you feel sorry for this waste of space asks radford. walnut has consistantly failed, failed failed and yet he keeps on picking up a whopping £65,000 a week.proudtosaythatname wrote:worthing_gooner wroteOthers have written that they are gutted for Theo.
