If that was the case th%n Why Keep Theo, why not sell him on deadline day, why even bother try to sort out a deal with him. Its not Wenger thats freezing Theo out the team Its Theo with his silly demands.

I suspect he wasn't sold becausg we didn't get

Theo to Liverpool seems most likely. Utd, the Chavs and City already have much better players than Walcott. Cut price deal too I bet because the contract will almost be up. If we could get Song back on loan then he could play there anyway.

He was a boyhood 'Pool fan anyway. Makes sense.

I don't even think the likes of Chelsea or City who have been touted as suitors for him even need him? Where would he play for them? He'd be another expensive bench warmer for either club, though I suspect both teams have been sounding out Theo to run down his contract so he can get a free.

I think Theo is a decent enough player but he's very replaceable, he's not even guaranteed first choice for us let alone any other decent PL side.

The reason I said frozen out is because I get the impression if this contract offer was signed Theo would be in the team playing regular football. At the end of the day if he wants 100K per week he won't be getting it here, I don't think for one minute Arsene or the board will back down and the fact that we're managing fine without him pretty much backs up their stance.

He'll be sold in January.

bit of a dick move as usual by the board/wenger but that's the norm nowadays. he'll be off no doubt for a career of extremely well paid mediocrity somewhere else.

Yep, I reckon he'll go to Liverpool too...though I wouldn't completely rule out Utd, aren't they trying to get rid of Nani? Moreover, Theo could be quite useful to them as a squaddie especially since RVC is there.

Well he has shown this season why he should have been paid the 100k he wanted.

who cares about the money. its wasted on other mugs in the squad that never play so whats another 30/40k. we're get fleeced either way. it might as well be for someone that will be on the pitch.
