Good afternoon.
There is a discernible mumble doing the rounds it would appear that we have made serious enquiries about Arsenal’s Theo Walcott. Sure this suggestion has surfaced before. Every rag from the Wall St Journal to War Cry has a run at some stage this year.
Another Arsenal contract running down so there’s a fortnight left on it. But in this instance this guy won’t be heading to United or City. He won’t be linked with a move to Barcelona. But does that mean we should look down our noses at him? I wouldn’t be in hurry to dismiss the idea.
Walcott isn’t the world’s greatest player. I’m not selling him to you as some panacea. Rather I’m thinking we could play him where we played Rafa and add a much needed zap of creativity to a midfield that has been left decimated. The conventional arguments against him joining are worthless. We have Gallas and Adebayor on our books.
He knows the league, he’s motivated and he wants a career. The question is would you ship him in? I would.
The latest Hotspur’s Half Hour is out now! 
We need a Drogba/Lukalu type.
We are up to our eyeballs in supply
Drogba would carry us into fourth. Lukaku is another player I like but would be behind Defoe and Ade in the pecking order.
Lukaku is an absolute beast. I’d ship him in, in a heartbeat…
I see that Hugo Lloris is pissed again.
I Dont blame him
Walcott would be an absolutely useless player for us. Never mind the arse-connection. His only real skill is running fast. He can’t cross, he can’t beat a man and he can’t turn. I’ll concede he is decent one on one with the keeper, but when playing against an organized defence or a team laying deep he is about as usefull as Jose Domingues.
Add to that the fact the he himself thinks he’s a world beater and you get a pretty good outlook of his footballing brain!
Adebayor / Defoe, up front or in the hole with Walcott. Bale and Lennon on the wings. That is some serious pace.
Parker, Demebele or Sandro sitting deep in midfield, battling and holding it all together. We may be on to something with that.
Not Walcott’s biggest fan, prefer Lennon on the Wing (if the wing is part of the midfield ie 442), but Walcott does score even from the wing and has blistering pace, so could surely do the business up top, especially playing off someone like Ade. For free / cheap it would be a great bit of business.
I dont think he would do it because he wouldnt want to look like a villian. But if he did why the fuck not !
