He's done amazingly well over the last 2 years. I don't understand the hate for Walcott from some people. He tried to get the best deal possible for himself like every other footballer (and don't act as if someone like Jack didn't also have representatives doing the same thing for him).

In the match thread today, you could see the reserved reactions from some people when Walcott scored and the glee with which they pointed out his mistake when he should have cut the ball back (the very same people who don't point out the mistakes of players like Giroud). What has he done to deserve so much hatred? He's one of our top players and we should support him.
They do point out the mistakes of Giroud but they also appreciate his heart and his obvious engagement with the game. Walcott is an aloof fuck who thinks he arrived, for whatever reason. The fucker can't even pass a ball. You can thank Cesc Fabregas and jack Wilshere and the other genuine players at this club for hot and cold theo Walcott numbers. But put a proper player in there and you have twice as much again. Like I said he's fast, very fast. When he can be bothered. I watched him in the hammers game give up on a ball that was heading for the touch line. I though about Suarez the week before who had busted a gut to get an impossible pass. Walcott is just a **** who's all about the money. True, our **** so I hope he grabs a few goals. But he doesn't fool me for a minute. He has no heart for this game.
