    Contract killer: Arsenal's Wenger dismisses idea Theo Walcott has taken it easy since signing da ting

    Arsene Wenger has claimed that crocked Theo Walcott can yet play a major part in Arsenal's push for a Champions League place.

    Walcott is facing a race to be fit for Saturday's trip to West Brom after a groin injury suffered on England duty, and even if he is available again, a drop in form has derailed the winger's season.

    The 24-year-old, who signed a new contract in January, has not scored for the Gunners since that same month - but Wenger insists their fans are wrong to suggest the two things are linked.

    Wenger said: "I don't believe that. If he didn't play well and had not signed a contract, then people would say the opposite.

    "I don't think that is linked, especially with the fact that he has signed a contract or not. Because you can say as well he is more secure, he can express himself.

    "I don't see any difference in attitude in training. He is a guy who loves football, who stays after training, works on his finishing. He was just a bit less decisive. He needs that fraction of a second to make the difference. He needs his pace.

    "In recent games he dropped a little bit. I think it was the fact that he got the muscular injury, so it was down to fatigue.

    "At Bayern, he did not have the greatest game but he still brought the goal and he looks dangerous. Until recently he made the difference time after time.

    "He will come back."

    Arsenal have their fingers crossed that Walcott will be ready for the home game with Norwich the following weekend if the West Brom trip comes too soon.

    The same goes for midfielder Jack Wilshere, with Wenger hoping the 21-year-old ankle-injury victim will be back for the run-in after returning to training.

    Safe to say the fans are once again correct then....

    Interesting, if any of it is true.

    Similarly interesting stats for shitstain Bale. Of course who's on the end of the attempted cross is important too. We have shit on one end and shit at the other so we end up nowhere. These basics of football are what we need to get back to. Passing, tackling, crossing, shooting. Very few of our players are proficient at these basic skills.

    What a hero, coming up with the novel idea that a team sport isn't all about him. Doesn't need to be said and nobody else felt the need but Theo will say it anyway. Still, mock humility is better than no humility at all.

    The lad clearly thinks he's TH14's second incarnation. I'll admit, he's a finisher. The problem is that he can't reliably do anything else - and despite his goals, when he plays its like having 10 men much of the time. If he played in a team with real quality, we might be able to afford the luxury of having him on the pitch. Problem is he doesn't.

    He assists quite a few too.

    So that's goals and assists. What else do we need him to do?

    Make match winning saves? Rocket science? Perform brain surgery?

    The expectations on Theo are ridiculous.
