Post by: scotty2hatty on January 16, 2008, 05:37:26 PM
Heard that Theo Walcott might be moving to Wet Ham for £8m - anyone heard anything?

Complete poppycock - why on earth would Arsenal sell him? He's even getting more first team action now.

This is what I figured too.

Loan rest of the season is the story it seems.

Its a very Wenger thing to do - but I would be most surprised.

I imagine if he went anywhere it would be for a lot more than £8M

Hmmm, tough one. I don't think he has developed as much as Wenger had hoped for. Maybe £8million is being a bit generous... ;carlocitrone;

As with any youngster the 'potential' factor is the one to gauge...  Alos his cousin Jacob is one to watch too apparently...

Tough to compare to Rooney. Rooney was built like a man when he was 16 whereas Walcott is slight.

He'll be much better when he's older and has more game intelligence, a better first touch and even more speed. Physically he's not ready for about 60% of the teams right now though.
