What now for Walcott?

I would ROFL myself to death if he stayed.

Yes he had an Ok season when he has 2 world class seasons in a row then he can think about getting 100k a week, he should be happy with 75 or even 85k a week.

This is the problem with players all spoilt,overhyped and overpriced.

Footballers are overpaid, we all know that.. the problem at our club is that absolute gob shit fucks like Chakma, Bendy get paid 50K/wk... when a decent player looks at that, he will think he is entitled to 100K. Nothing wrong with Theo's demands... its a shame AW and the fucks around him have given out contracts of 50K/week to nobodies like Denilson, Diaby, Chakma etc.

You reap what you sow unfortunately..

Yes there is. We've already offered him a big pay rise - one that, frankly, he doesn't deserve.
If someone else wants to pay him even more than we've offered him then they're idiots. Trouble is there are lot of idiots out there.

But I take the point that we have paid some pretty mediocre players far too much and that has raised other player's expectations.

So in the end, the fault is ours right? He is comparing himself to his colleagues at his 'work place' and when the secretary gets paid a shitload of money, why shouldnt the analyst expect higher money?

It's not entirely our fault because he has been offered higher money.
Higher money which frankly he doesn't deserve.
Wages have gone mental throughout the game which isn't our fault at all. I do think we've paid some far too much to players who don't deserve it - one of those players is Walcott actually but I can see how that does create unrealistic expectations.

He'll stay because he won't do any better than Arsenal, and he knows it.

The club should take the hit for failing to deal and prepare for this ahead of time. We've sold to many, in too short a space of time. Its not even Walcott I'm worried about. Is the dogmatic approach that's hugely disruptive and really bad to the ethos, reputation and atmosphere of the club.


Knowing that the club are unable to grasp this is fucking depressing.
