What is stalling Theo??

[BlindFaith_8]

The truth of the matter is that Theo has a strong hand, he can refuse to sign and wait until the summer and join a top side with a large signing on fee and over 100K a week in wages, thus the Arsenal greedy board would get nada, on the other hand Theo realises we have a shit squad and front players so feels he is our Marquee player and deserves to be the highest paid player on the books. For me I would love him to walk in the summer on a free to teach ******* and the board a harsh lesson in economics. All in all I would prefer him to stay but I would'nt blame him if he joined Chelsea or Man City on a lucrative longterm deal and the chance of winning medals whilist he is in his prime, he's way too good for our squad, we are a Giroud and Chamakh team front line up, this means we have two shit forwards to compliment 9 shit outfielder players and yest that inludes Wilshire.

Out of all the top players we have lost in the last few years, he's the one I would be least bothered about.

He's done well this season for sure and has been our most productive player up front so credit where credits due, I just think we've lost some far better players in the past which I wished we'd kept hold off.

Paying Theo 90K is complete madness, but considering how much way pay the likes of Arteta, Ramsey and a few other counter-productive players, it then becomes justiable.

How on earth is it madness? Have you not seen his stats over the past few years? A comparable player on the market would cost 20million and 90k per week in wages minimum. We either sign him or promote Miyaichi...I know what I'd prefer.

Thanks for making my point. Ridiculous the kind of wages these mediocre players are being paid.

I bet Sturridge is earning the same if not more at Liverpool, and he's proper shit.

Take it with a pinch of salt, but I read he is on about £60k.

Well right now Theo isn't a mediocre player, say what you like about him but his stats are backing up his wage demands, the boy is and has been producing for the past 2 seasons. You go and find a wide forward on the continent that regularly hits double figures in goals and assists each season. You wanna know how much they trade for?

[Cripps_orig]

And the fact he isnt even a wide man and still produces, he deserves his wages

Go easy, as you're seriously bordering on overrating him here. Theo is still no world class player, awashed with talent and technical ability. Yes, he does use his attributes (pace and a moderately good shot/finish) to his advantage at times, but he's still pretty much an inconsistent git who at times looks like he doesn't have a brain. I reckon that it won't be very long before we start tearing out our hair again when he goes completely batshit on the pitch.

With that said, he's still pretty much our most important player post RvC. But then again we've become undeniably small time. We're not a club on a mission to compete with the best clubs in the world, so Theo, along with the heavy contingent of dross, are pretty much at home here.

I'm worried that if he signs I'll be watching his lazy arse jogging back from another run into the defender, whilst our midfield and defence are over run by quality teams such as swansea, cardiff (next year), not sure if that is because rest of squad is shit or seen him disapear too many times where he thinks he's Henry
