It's worth remembering Theo's contribution last season and reminding your friend that Oxo Cube has never played a Prem game. I only saw the highlights but Theo was one of the few players that got a shot on target and put in a good cross for Gibbs but Gibbs got his header all wrong.

I'm just against this idea that one or two players with very little experience would have changed the game for us. If it was Wilshere and Rosicky playing in the middle, a few voices would have called for Rambo or Chamberlain to come on.
Theo loked very rusty, I think AOC might have done better but I'd back Theo as the first-choice sub anytime, more experience and probably a better finisher.
