Guest Heneage Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Walcott isn't ready to start, I'd consider dropping him to the U21'S, he's not ready for the first team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incognito Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 king was not terrible 2nd half btw. Anyway think Fabio's taking him after playing 90 minutes tonight. He wasn't tested 2nd half though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Exactly, Lennon was as unproductive has Walcott was 2 years ago, and infact at a younger age Walcott had already proved more than Lennon (Croatia hattrick, running through half the Liverpool team). It's just that Lennon has ironed out all the bad habbits in his game and developed into a very good player where as Walcott has stagnated completely due to injury or other reasons. For all his bad traits I can see why Capello has the patience to stick with Walcott. There's certainly more than just a speed merchant, hidden somewhere in him.

Still don't think he's really a winger. I don't think he's ready for either role. His finishing needs work to be a striker, and his general play needs work to be a winger.

Still don't think he's really a winger. I think one of the reasons why he has stagnated is due to him never defining a regular position. I agree with you as in I think he'll be more use playing upfront, in a quick counterattacking team he'd be effective. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 We should loan him (Walcott) seriously. Would do him the world of good. He'd get every game and some much needed confidence. It would sound like i've entered a parallel universe but Arsenal are on the verge of ruining him, and a move here would do him good? Too many beers for me.

midds Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Walcott is worth having on the bench. Agree 100% Doesn't warrant a starting place but if we're chasing a goal he'd be an excellent option purely due to his pace. I'd take him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kingdawson Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 He should be on the bench simply because SWP has been pretty terrible and he gets in by default. Adam Johnson, now there's a good player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElDiablo Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Walcott desperately needs a full season of football. Still got massive potential and is pretty useful in the here and now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 I saw Portugal couldn't win against Cabo Verde, I bet lots of fists have been held in anger in the betting thread. Truly awful result, even in a friendly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Walcott is a glorified sprinter. Is the nub of the problem. And the higher the level of football you pitch him into, the more he struggles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy that got a mention on here the other day, Jong Tae-Se, scored a couple of absolute crackers - superb power and technique. Was very impressed.
