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! 
Is this ‘Tenner’ lady related to the ‘Fiver for Standing Up’ lady that used to be drink in The Fox in Palmers Green?
The old knee trembler. :daumen:
‘Feel the burn’ – not just on your hamstrings either sadly….
“Hello nurse”
“You again?”
:blink: SORE
The notion that Walcott could play for Spurs is a very un-inspiring one once I get over the Arsenal thing. It’s not because he isn’t any good, he’s a great footballer really.
But I feel we need someone epic. Not just a talented forward but someone with character and presence. We have some really good guys playing for us, great defenders, pacey wingers but in order for any of that to be of real use you need that ‘special’ player that stamps his authority on a game. Some one who digs a bit deeper to push everyone forward.
I know thats not exactly a pearl of wisdom but I think it’s a simple truth that we have to except.
I’ll maintain my cynicism whatever player we’re linked with until I see us en-earth somebody truly great. An individual who can inspire those around him to keep it going until the end. Every successful Prem team has one, Manure have had so many in the last couple of decades.
We need another Spurs Legend to make us exciting. Not another bit part player or sick note.
would he cross the divide,would levy pay his wages,but why not tit for tat and all that,we owe them for big Sol
Walcott as a creative type?! Is there another Walcott that I haven’t seen?
Barry Walcott, creative midfielder extraordinaire.
Hi All!
We signed bargain Dempsey and Siggy. This is more of the same. We need quality. Players who are better than we have got. He is not.
Thanks for sharing with us.
