Can I just say, the whole Theo rumours are horrendous. We are supposed to be fighting arsenal in the up coming years for possition in the premier league. And he is 28 years old, so now on the turn from his best. He is a bench player for arsenal and so he is to come to us and sit on our bench for 145,000 a week. Stupid. He doesn't make the grade for a team we want to fight for possition with, so why go for him. I really really hope saints come in with a better offer and we can put this to rest. I would chose lookman everyday before Walcott. Why ain't for going in for mahrez. (Leicester winger) he makes stuff happen. Walcott is so predictable. He kicks it in front of him and runs. That's it. His final ball is terrible and his shooting has got better in recent years, but still shocking. There must be better options out there. He's such a predictable purchase for S. A. we want to be fighting for champions league, not middle of the road team. Sam sort it out. Need a big signing. Not just rosin.
WishList:
Luke Shaw.
Jean-michael seri
paco Alcacer.

What are you on about, he scored 19 goals last season, who did we have in our squad who scored that many, he would be a very big signing for us, pace ability to score goals and make teams think twice about pushing forward, lookmen can't get a regular place because he not consistent, 5 mins of flare isn't good enough,
12 Jan 2018 16:34:22
I know a lot of us would like Seri but we need to be realistic. He nearly went Barcelona in the Summer and probably has many offers from champions league clubs. We can't give that so why would he come to us. The teams needs more goals and pace and Walcott gives that.
12 Jan 2018 16:41:37
So don't buy Walcott because he can't get a game for arsenal but buy shaw who has been publically shamed by Jose a few times and only gets near their team for cup games. Honestly, not a clue how you are rationalizing that.

Anyone who has been watching us lately can see that we are getting slower and slower. Without Coleman we have been virtually impotent on the right. Now we have Bolasie back we can see how bad we were without him. So add Walcot to the team and we will have more pace again. It’s a no brainer for me.
12 Jan 2018 17:02:02
Walcott would be a good addition, pace, and goals. He's Arsenals 2nd top scorer of all time with over 100 goals. Keeping him fir and healthy is another matter, but I'd take him in a heartbeat.
12 Jan 2018 17:25:39
I’d have him in a heartbeat as well him and Bolasie tipping defences apart or getting beyond defenders onto defence splitting passes from Rooney or Gylfi!
And if Lookman plays with this lot he will only benefit as well.
12 Jan 2018 17:28:27
exactly pace is what we have been lacking, c'mon Sam sign him up pronto.
12 Jan 2018 17:47:48
He's also pretty versatile, he can play left wing, right wing, no.10 (although we don't need anyone else to play there! ) and striker if necessary.
12 Jan 2018 18:16:13
Realism is needed here. As someone else says. we are not a Champions League club so why would players like Marez come to us when other Champions League clubs are after him? Look at my other posts about goals too. We are so shy of goals in our squad that Walcott's stats are head and shoulders above anyone else in our squad.
12 Jan 2018 19:58:15
He'll definitely improve us and I think he'll be hungry to succeed so I think it's worth the gamble. Bolasie, Theo, Sig and Tosun should be a good forward quartet with Vlasic and Lookman rotating in the wide positions.
12 Jan 2018 20:16:43
Well OllBlue1878 you pretty much wrote my post.
Couldn’t agree more with that, especially adding Lookman and Vlasic in there as I think they’ll be great players in time.
12 Jan 2018 22:25:04
Such nonsense. Fringe players at the big clubs are often more than good enough for most other clubs. Walcott would be a big step in the right direction for us. Sometimes seems to go missing but other days looks sensational and bangs in the goals. I'd be very happy to see him here!
13 Jan 2018 01:05:00
pace lacking! really! Lennon. Kenny, Vasic, Bolasie, Coleman Some of you need a head wobble.
13 Jan 2018 08:17:26
Yes we are lacking pace, really! Watch the games.
{Ed025's Note - i cant see a problem in getting theo, some say the money is too much for a 28yr old and that his wages will be too much...NEWSFLASH..mr moshiri will not be knocking on any of our doors asking us to contribute money for it, hes better than we have so its a no brainer for me guys..
13 Jan 2018 13:01:00
I'm expecting him round for tea later ed. Surely i can't be the only one he's asking for contributions off?
{Ed025's Note - he might just want your advice on the new ground cropper, i told him you know your stuff see mate..
