Nah, he's booked in to be injured most of the season. I agree though, Theo looks far better up front than out wide. He's not a great striker by any means, but then again he's not a great winger either. But he sometimes finishes well which might grab us the odd vital goal here and there. Plus his pace will always hurt teams with a ball played over the top.

When he is heading for goal and is in a central position, he does take pot-shots at goal. When he comes in from the side, he often seems unsure whether to cross or shoot and ends up making an indecisive shot/pass which loses us the momentum. His pace running through the centre onto a pass from Cesc Wilshire should cause problems for the opposition.

£12m and probably around £4m wages over the course of his contract.

meaning we've got around £24m left to spend.

not too promising.

He's quick and skillful, I think he has a lot of potential, but he's only 17 so it's hard to tell how much he'll play.

From what I've seen of him, he's what I expected Walcott to be when we signed him.

Fucking monumentally stupid. And it's far better to be a moaning git than a complacent, compliant cock scabbard. How many more thrusts are you willing to absorb before you have something to say about getting fucked up the arse?
