WALCOTT - which position is best etc?

[DB10GOONER]

Let's hope Woy doesn't pick him then and we can book the one way flight ticket and the taxi to the airport

I know it's just a web story but it wouldn't surprise me if Feo got the hump if he misses out on Euro2016. Would be typical of his sort. Delivers fuck all for his club but expects to be picked for his country.

I don’t want to contemplate living in a world in which “world-class Walcott” doesn’t play for Arsenal.

Kane, Vardy, Rooney, Sturridge, Sterling, Welbeck, are all ahead of Feo. Thats 6 players, and I would imagine the rest would be made of up goal keepers, defenders and midfielders.

I dont know why Feo would assume he should go to the Euro's given his form. When you allow a 19 year old novice to upsurge you in your 10th season at a club like Arsenal, at 27 years of age when you should be in your peak, then whats going for you???

He shouldnt go to the Euro's, anymore than he shouldnt be near our first team.

He really does need to take this move to West Ham.

I think he probably knows he won't be going to the Euros.

I think he probably knows he won't be going to the Euros.

TBH I'd be amazed if Woy doesn't pick him. It's like some unwritten rule; NO MATTER HOW SHITE WALCOTT IS PLAYING YOU WILL PICK HIM.

I call it the Steven Gerrard Edict.

I bet you he doesn't go!

He's been at Arsenal 10 years and all he's done is grow a beard.

I firmly believe that the last two times when his contract was due, he stalled signing it hoping one of the big guns would come him for him. They didn't then and they won't now, I don't know what signing scrap they are expecting.

"His spell on the bench has put his Euro place under threat and he could consider his future at the end of the campaign if he isn’t back in Arsene Wenger’s plans."

He was on the bench because he wasn't delivering the goods, and didn't do much when he came on, that has put his Euro place under threat, because there are more players in front of him now.

The end for me was that absolutely pathetic display at OT. Got the starting slot he wanted up front, playing against fucking Carrick and Blind and he was absolutely abject from the first minute to the minute he was hauled off. Gutless wanker, stealing a living from us since he signed the last contract.

[Sean]

He's become the new Michael Owen; phoning it in for years and only getting up for England games, yet still thinks he's worth his wages and more.

Who is mad enough to pay him £140K a week?

Waddle said this 6 years ago and not a word he said then was wrong

http://www.theguardian.com/football/201 ... le-england

"He's had a long time at Arsenal, he's playing with fantastic players, a lot of young players around his age group. He's never nailed his shirt at Arsenal. I've got nothing against the lad. I just think it's no surprise for me he's not on the plane. I look and I just think he doesn't seem to understand the game."

"Sir Geoff Hurst, meanwhile, believes that Arsène Wenger will be an important figure in helping Walcott recover from the blow.....................
"Arsène Wenger will be very important to Theo's recovery. He is a great manager and a magnificent mentor to the young players at that club."

And it was for me too.

He doesn't offer anywhere near enough for the obscene amount he coins in.

Slightly off topic and i know this is an old article but where the hell is the evidence that AW is such a magnificent mentor for all these young players? Theo being case in point, add to him Gibbs, Ramsey, Ox, and all the others and i just don get it?!?

Someone/Anyone explain what i am missing

It all stems from him signing Anelka (and then flogging him to build a training ground)

cue his reputation, which he lived off for years despite all the other failed youngsters who didn't make it

then Fabregas.......

after that not so much, despite him trying to sign every promising youngster out there.

Somehow those two (admittedly both top top drawer) against all the dross he still manages to hold onto the outdated concept that he develops and improves youngsters
