He's been at Arsenal since 06-07 so he's featured in 100 out of 209 games. Insane.

I wonder how long it'll be before he does that turn (the first one that you learn when you first start playing football at 5 years)

So walnut is having another absolute 'mare eh ?

Against a full back that was classed as 3rd choice with us up until a couple of months ago

Not surprising that it was arshavin subbed though - gone as lazy as fcuk but at least has the intelligence to create a goal for rvp with what was supposed to be a great pass where as braindead walnut is pants

Gervinho the final substitution. No Ox again. What's the point naming him on the bench?

Didnt tommy smith score against us a few years ago when he was with pompey or watford ? He is the type of journeyman striker that usually scores against us

You're reaching there, give it a rest. If Walcott cant do better with a chance like that, it has nothing to do with Wenger.
He was an instinctive striker at Southampton. At Arsenal Wenger basically coached most of his confidence out of him playing him on the right wing.

It's like United signing Rooney and playing him right wing for the last five years.

I'm not saying he shouldn't have done better with that chance, but we had a top youngster on our hands when we signed him and now he's average. To me that's Wenger's fault because he's being mismanaged.

The same thing is happening with Ox as we speak. Any confidence he has is being demolished because players like Chamakh and Arshavin are playing ahead of him consistently even though they're shit.
I take your point, although Walcott did play a good few games on the wing with Southampton, but yeah I see what you are saying. But your post was directed at Wenger and we both know that Walcott should have done better with that opportunity no matter what team/position he was playing in. I'm actually not sure Walcott was the great potential he was hyped up to be...I dont think he is technically good enough to be a "top" player whether he was playing through the middle or on the wing.

No argument there, walcott's "finish" today was woeful. I think he looked to have the ability. He wasn't the most technically gifted but as a striker you don't have to be. He knew how to play on the shoulder and had the pace to get in behind and finish. The last five years playing right wing it's almost as though he's lost all confidence and self belief to be able to do that.

I do think he would do well played upfront in a 4-4-2 but that'll never happen at Arsenal.
