    I have stated in reply to a post that a lot of patience by a vast majority of the fans has been shown to Theo.
    If you say he's been a let down then obviously there is an issue with expectations.

    Nothing to indicate this superstar expectation you talk of.

    My expectation level for him has always been some ways south of 'superstar'.
    If you don’t send this signature to ten people, you will become a Spurs fan.

    Well how about a comparison to the many other 16 year olds we see come and go at Arsenal? As said, many just don't make it at this level and get shipped off to lower leagues or smaller clubs.

    Jesus, I'm not talking about his play 7 years ago.

    Just accept you got it wrong and kill yourself.

    I'll fuck off if you kill yourself, but you'll have to take out GP first.

    OK?

    You're embracing your new non-modness, I see.

    Expectations were way too high initially because of all the press hype. Most Arsenal fans were far more realistic but Walcott hasn't consistently delivered as much as was hoped even allowing for that. He is still relatively young but already Oxo is looking more like the player we all hoped Walcott would be.

    The point is simply this.

    Arsenal fans have shown a lot of patience for Walcott.

    At 16 he was hailed as the next Rooney and Henry. Before he even kicked a ball for us. Expectation levels were too high and of he'd have been signer up as just another one of Wenger's kids, perceptions would probably be different.
