Poor Ickle Theo

One of the worst signings in living memory. Absolutely awful football player.
Remember the chip he scored for Southampton as a kid? That single goal fooled everyone into thinking he was an English Thierry Henry...great vision, poise, finishing, athleticism etc. To think only the latter applies.

He’s made a career out of being a great athlete with bogstandard Premier League ability. No football brain whatsoever.

If you look at Arsenal’s slow decline from 2005 onward, Walcott’s arrival a year later and constant presence in the team is the embodiment of it.
 
I just find him a bit Aaron Lennon. Get's in great position but his final ball/shot is often lacking

It’s a good comparison this. It’s the decision making in the final ball that he really struggles with. In form, Theo is brilliant to have on the pitch and is relatively unmatched for pace. Unfortunately his inconsistency makes him another squad player.
