Gervinho, Diaby's, Szczesny and Gibbs all our for the weekend, hopefully this means Walcott will get a place at some stage, but if I remember, Le Prof said on Tuesday he wouldn't be fit to start.
I must admit, I'm very worried about the Theo situation.
We signed him for a big fee, for a youth prospect, and for years he's been hit and miss, but now, as a striker he's scoring goals almost every appearance.
I'd be fuming if we let him go in Janurary and then sign a striker!

But hes scoring goals from the right most games. Plus how can you be fuming if we sold him and bought a striker. We need a certain type who can lead the line with strength and abilty. Walcott would get lost upfront for us especially against any good defender

Because he wouldn't play as a lone forward, he'd play off of Giroud.

We need a striker with pace. a striker who moves and runs behind defenders to break the offside trap. theo can do it. giroud cant do it. We need theo, or a striker with pace like theo. Not many of them around..

Agree0 Disagree0

There no way we would change our whole system to fit walcott and make other players redundant

We should as the 4-3-3/4-5-1 system does not work for us.
We need to go back to a 4-4-2 and play walcott off Giroud to get the best out of both players.

Our problem is we have too many strong central midfielders. I would personally switch Cazorla to the left side (floating like Rooney), play Chamberlain from the right and have Wilshere and Arteta in the centre. I would use Poloski as a striker sub as he is too slow for the wing IMO.

Is anybody else getting concerned about our No1 keeper? He has now been out for a number of weeks with a minor injury (Vermaelen and Wilshere all over again) and no sign of a return. If we lose Mannone, who at best is adequate we are in deep trouble having seen Martinez play at Reading!
