So for £100K per week he'll put up with playing wide? Give him £110K and stick him in goal. Give him £120K and ask him to make the tea. Sounds like it's all about the money - he wants to be on par with those steaming turds who get big bucks failing for England. At least that's the tune on the merry-go-round. It's all a mass of lies, bullshit, greed and crocodile tears and cupboard love anyway, isn't it. Not a scrap of loyalty, gratitude or respect for the fans in any of the ****s.

Walcott's best position is the position in which we play him.

probably no loyalty, i wont disagree about that - none of the fuckers have.

but clearly the message from the club about his development has not been mirrored with a change on the pitch, so something has to give, seeing as walcott sees himself as a striker.

there is more substance to that idea than anything to do with money at the moment - at least there is evidence to back the theory rather than media telling us how it is. many many fans criticise the media for being bullshitters, yet will eat it all up when it suits.

Well maybe him agreeing to stay short term might see him playing upfront.

i think the money demands are just a way players force a club's hand tbh. Most of the time it is power play.

He probably knows damn well club wont pay him that!

They aren't playing up front.

Or anywhere else for that matter.
