I wonder why Arseblog started this shit? As far as I know neither Walcott nor his agent have been fussing. They might do in the coming months by why are we pre-empting it?

Walcott and Welbeck are both good players - by PL standards. PL standards are very, very low. There are hardly any genuinely good players in this league. We hold up mediocre shit like Kompany and Rooney as world beaters. By that standard Walcott is one of the best players in the league so we need to hang on to him if we can, just like we need to hang on to Wilshere and Ramsey. It's been a long time since our squad wasn't stuffed up with shit. The deadwood has been brushed out, the squad is in decent shape. We need to add a couple more players, not dump the ones we have.

Walcott will get his chance. We're not into round 2 of the Arsenal injury bonanza yet. Let's not get complacent just because we don't have 20 players in the treatment room. That'll come soon enough.

I never quite got his issue with Walcott. If you read between the lines he speaks as if he knows something we don't and naturally, were that the case, he couldn't just come out and say, but in any case I feel like he has been harsh on him in the past.

The PL's standards may be low but it is still quite easily in the top 2 leagues in the world. I feel a bandwagon of 'Kompany is actually crap' has emerged of late. I don't expect you to commend any City player, loathe are you to credit anything remotely connected with their club, but a lot of other people have got on his back just because it has been highlighted that he has made a mistake in his professional career on occasion. I'm still of the opinion we should have signed him years ago, such is his ability and professionalism and he hasn't made nearly enough cock ups to make me renege on that.

Walcott isn't a world class player, but you only need to listen to Messi's thoughts on him to understand what an 'ASSET' he is. We aren't talking ex pro, viagra pedelling, partial to an incredible statement Pele, crediting his long lost African brother in El Hadj Diouf kind of praise either. It's praise for one of the all time greats, in his prime still playing.

We lost Podolski the best finisher at the club already. No need to lose the second best too.... Chambers' end product isn't nearly consistent enough for us to augur this high and mighty attitude about losing exceptional players.

Kompany has been poor for a long while now.

And he's been genuinely atrocious this season. Even the moronic pundits who stick to their uninformed, pre-ordained scripts for seasons on end have had to rip them up and admit he's been a liability such has been his awfulness.

It's just like Hart. He had one good season in the Premier League and that was enough to propel him to virtually the best in the world status in their eyes. Since then, they've been extremely dodgy but are still apparently 'world class'.

Used to like reading his blog, but it has become very stale now.

Start: I was dreaming last night that *insert weird arsenal fantasy here*

Middle: But anyway, we have a game on this week, and I wonder whether *insert fumblings about players*

End: Till tomorrow


Fuckin yawn-athon.

Maybe he's looking for something to write about? In all honesty, as people slowly realise there isn't much worth talking about with Arsenal anymore, it becomes very difficult to write a daily blog...let along make it interesting.

True. I struggle to write a post a day.

Well I'm not going to hang around for you to catch me at it.

Be prepared to go through the same with Theo's replacement, Danny Welbeck, if Theo leaves.

Theo's wasted his career with us. He should have been developed as a striker and it he may have to look at Sturridge as an example of a player that had to move before getting played in his correct position.

Funny enough, Welbeck was probably looking at that Sturridge move and thinking he'd get his opportunity up front with us instead of Utd. It's looking like he's made a mistake.

Sturridge has much better technique than Theo. Not even close.

Welbeck is more the opposite of Sturridge.

Manchester City are reportedly lining up a deal to sign Jack Wilshere from Arsenal at the end of the season.

City, who have a long history of signing stars from Arsenal, are already planning for next season.

And amid fears about homegrown players, reports say they are lining up a deal to sign Wilshere from Arsenal.

The 23-year-old has been dogged by injury problems in the last few years but has no shortage of admirers, with Liverpool also linked.

Wilshere is thought to be worth about £25million.

Ive been dreaming of this day for years

Nice knowing you "judas"

I'm not comparing their ability. Very different players but all three fancy themselves as strikers. That's what I'm comparing.
