    The club might not want him. We've signed Poldoski, Oxo and Gervinho in a short space of time. Walcott also wants to play up front but Wenger seems reluctant to move him there.

    Be interesting to see what happens. I'd actually be surprised if he chose you over us if he has the choice (Wenger might want him out so he'll have no choice).

    His stats are excellent and he gets over-criticised. He could turn into a star under your lot but even at his current level he's way better than your wingers.
    Well yes. But pretty much our only winger is Downing, so that's not hard.

    if liverpool or another club for that matter came in with a bid of 20 million or more id bite their hands off and sell theo. even possibly a bid low as 15 million.

    he is a good player but far to inconsistent, and a bid of 15 million or more, id show him the door myself

    Maybe its time for Walcott to become a striker for us? I've heard worse ideas.

    Tbh i think he would be a good striker for us but signing giroud probably means that wenger still doesnt think he can cut the mustard up front. Thought in the fa and carlings last year was the perfect platfrom for him to be tested up front

    Walcott needs press Wenger on this and find out how playing on the wing is supposed to be helping him develop as a striker. Wenger says he likes strikers that can do more than just score goals and I think Walcott has improved his all round team play with the goals he's setting up, so what more does he have to do there?

    agreed there. if RVP leaves it gives us scope for the big man lil man combo with theo and giroud up front. If we can feed him with through balls i think he could score loads for us, like bent at villa

    We cannot afford to keep losing our first team players, and to criticise them for being greedy and money hungry when some fans are saying we should accept the money is inconsistent. If we did reject it I'd for once praise the men who run Arsenal for putting football over profits. Walcott, for all his faults, did contribute a lot last season and we need to have some stability. Otherwise, every season becomes a transitional one, and it'll always be jam tomorrow.

    Not sure about that story, but 25million is a lot of money. The thing istheo could be worth a lot more in a few years time, so knowing the board they wont sell theo as they are not getting their projected maximum return. Remember, Theo was our first supposed cash cow under this new "sell our best players every season" policy.
