He's a better player than Theo by miles, but why are we even talking about something that will never ever happen?

He's only a better player because he's older. I think in time theo will be better than SWP. Plus SWP's style of play doesn't really suit us. He runs at the defender and puts crosses in... not really the way we play!

I think if we were ever going to buy him, we would've done it before he went to the chavs.

As someone has already said in this thread , He had his chance and took the chelsea road.

Oh well never mind.

I like him and i think he'd fit in with our style very well, he's very comfortable on the ball and he links very well with his team mates, he can beat a player with skill and not just outright pace which gives him more options..he's a far better footballer than Theo ever will be..
My only reservation is he's another munchkin a lightweight, too similar to AA and Nasri, other than that i think he would be a far better option than theo given the choice..

We don't need him, more important areas to concern ourselves with.

I agree, but i'm working on the principal of like for like, i don't think there would be any point in getting rid of theo if we were not going to replace him with something similar, but better...Our other needs although more pressing, are a seperate issue that no doubt our manager will again decline to address..

Always want what other people have...

Would SWP actually be an improvement on Walcott? Probably not and at least Theo has time on his side.

You can only beat what is in front of you and Theo caused Burnley problems yesterday, more of the same against Porto I hope.

Yes he would be an improvement...

He caused Burnley problems..thats OK then... that more than makes up for the 5 out of 6 games that he plays that he is anonymous.
Bjesus no wonder half our unproven players are on bumper contracts if all they have to do is put in one good performance against a bottom of the table team to warrant great praise..

Yes all you can do is beat whats put in front of you..the problem is Theo rarely does that

I knew where you were coming from but I'm working on the basis that AW has only limited concentration when it comes to transfers and any waste of time like this would fuck up the 1% chance of getting real issues addressed.

Yea but you know he's a bit like a child, he likes his sweets, but he doesn't like his greens...if he's got money in his pocket he's far more likely to buy some more sweets with it than he is some much needed greens....if you know what i mean

What about Joe Cole? He may be available on a free transfer in the summer. May be an option - not sure if he would fit though.
