Wouldn't be too hard to 'put Walcotts' numbers to shame' to be fair....but post invincibles Wenger's signings def haven;t been as good. Have no doubt AOC will put that right though.Quote:

tbh if theo is to go i would rather we went after Ben Arfa than sinclair. think he can become a fantastic player, only injury has slowed his progress down
Really? How about a comparison of what other Prem wingers are doing compared to Theo. Look it up. We've had this discussion before and people are often surprised because he's not getting dwarfed by any of his peers.Quote:

we tracked him at marseille and then he got injured so went for nasri by all accounts. has more to his game overall than sinclair. but as you say, we will probably go for the cheaper option, tis the arsenal way!
Ben Arfa looks good but you know he's never hit double digit figures for goals as a senior player...just saying.Quote:

Would City or Liverpool really give Walcott 90-100k?
Back from a pretty bad injury and scored 8 premiership goalsQuote:

There are other options if Walcott doesn't want to sign....just saying...his stats are really not that impressive...except when you compare them to post-invincible signings like arshavin, eboue or gervinho as you seem intent on doing...even nasri got into double figures with us. There are other players in the premiership and beyond who could do better for us...of that I am sure.
