Has anyone seen Theo Walcott play before?
595334
Ive seen Theo Walcott play for Southampton and he is a very talented player already, he has got electrifying pace and an abundance of skill already and is a natural goal scorer, in his first season at youth level he scored over 100 goals in a season, he has played for the England youth team and scored goals and has also played for the Arsenal Reserve team and scored goals and he regularly trains with the Arsenal first team. Although it is a gamble taking him to the World Cup because he hasn't played for the Arsenal first team this season I think its not a bad gamble because from what Ive seen he is gonna cause defences alot of trouble, at the end of the day if you,ve got pace and skill and an eye for goal like he has I don't think it matters whether you,ve played at international level or not, he still knows how to skin defenders and I cant see many of them catching him, Give him a chance and judge him after the World Cup, you might be pleasantly surprised.

Crouch is not the answer, his positional play is dire.  How the hell is he is classed as an International quality player is beyond me.\n\nI'd play the Portugese with the same line up as we used against Ecuador.  Rooney looks like he's about to do something pretty special to me, and certainly doesn't look to be suffering from his injury.  Give him chance and he will shine.\n\nOne thing is for sure, it's about time the whole team started playing as such and showed more commitment than they have done of late (how much of that is Sven's lack of enthusiasm though?)

By default, he's always been behind at least two other people - Shearer and Sheringham, Shearer and Owen, Owen and Rooney. It's a shame he was never given more chance as a fringe player, but there were always better options for starters.

Well I watched the England celeb's v England legends that was played at Craven Cottage yesterday, and I have to say, the celeb's looked quite good, but the legends were excellent. They countered the better fitness of the younger celeb team, by exceptional positional play, and silky skills, and they linked up very well together, especially as some had never played with each other before. Beardsley looked dangerous enough that he should still be in the Premiership, and Seaman probably kept them from winning easily with some great first half saves.\nIf the rest of the world can link up together like legends did, I am sorry to say, but I think ROW should do it.\n(P.S - Send Beardsley to partner Owen in Rooney is not fit!!)

My uncle's best mate is a youth team coach at united. He's mentioned the following names to my uncle as being targetted.\nRiquelme (Argentine midfielder)\nViera (Juventus)\nPapa Bouba Diop (Fulham Midefielder)\nMido (ex-Tottenham striker)\nCarlton Cole (Chelsea forward)\nEidur Gudjonson (Chelse forward)\n\nThat should keep rumour mill ticking over for a bit...

Shaun-Wright Phillips was probably injured for the squad\nand was resting an injury that he had. He was selected\nfor England's squad, but with an injury that he had developed,and was kept on the sidelines, so he could\nrest and recover from this injury and maybe be prepared \nfor the start of the World Cup. Now that Shaun-Wright Phillips, has not fully recovered, Sven, now has to select\nanother player in place of Shaun-Wright Phillips, which\nis Theo, a player of the same technique, skill and\nstyle of Shaun-wright Phillips. (My opinion)

Of course it will...he is your best player...Michael Owen if he goes will probably hamstring himself again..and the rest of the strikers are just average. But Good luck anyway !

Theo Walcott and Peter Crouch

'Taking the piss'!  I like that.  No Walcott will not play much (unless he excells, which no one really knows how he will do, not even Sven).  Defoe will be called into action, Rooney will not even come close enough to gamble on.  So you will be looking at a strike force of Defoe or Crouch and Owen if he lasts, then Walcott.  \n\nIs Sven Drunk.. maybe, his justification for taking Walcott sounds as though he took a couple wabbly pops. So yes.

of all people who got robbed... darren bent. he didnt make the team (the walcott did). take FREDDY EASTWOOD (SOUTHEND FC)

Owen will be ready though maybe not 100%..he and Crouch will start. I either of them underperform, Walcott wil go in (and then we'll see if Sven's selection of him over Shaun Wright Phillips is justified..I think its NOT)

Yes a fan did play for west ham once !!! It was near the end of a season, could of been the last game i think, and he was giving Harry Redknapp a load of stick. So harry said if he could do any better he'd better put a shirt on and do it .So he did !! \n\nCan't find nothing on the net to support it, but i think he has a autobiograthy out so it might be in that !!!\n\nGood luck

I would love to see him playing with some of the world's best players even if he would get very little playing time. For example, look at Theo Walcott. I think they are very similiar situations. Walcott has improved SO much by moving to arsenal even if he only gets to play 10 minutes a game. And I think whatever he learns in england he will be able to apply to the US national team. \n\nOn top of all of this, I am a Man U fan so I am excited to see what happens.

Yes. He was reknown before hand for Redcards and foul play. He is a good defender, strong in the air and a good defender, just pretty hard to play against.

incredible decision by sven he should have picked defoe and put walcott on standby - the kid has no experience he hasn't even made his debut for arsenal - it makes no sense
