Will Walcott now abandon Arsenal for Chelsea?
The announcement by Arsenal star striker Robin van Persie that he will not renew his contract with the North London club will probably mean that Arsenal are forced to sell the Dutchman this summer. His team mate Theo Walcott is in the same position, only having one year left on his contract.
It is widely thought that Walcott has been waiting to see what van Persie’s decision was before making his own. So now he may also be moving on, and Chelsea are the club most likely to benefit. Arsenal may have to accept less than they want as they could lose him for nothing next year.
Arsenal have issued a statement suggesting that they will make van Persie play out the last year of his contract, but I think that this is not the case. Van Persie will face hostility from Arsenal fans and this will surely affect his performance. Arsenal are just trying to make sure that they get maximum value from the transfer.
Walcott and Eden Hazard have the pace and skill to destroy defenders and with a confident Fernando Torres in the middle, the Blues will be scoring for fun this season.
i wil like to see WALCUTT at stamford bridge next summer. Please RDM do something fast an sign him. And chelsea will be fine.
The management should keep faith,if the hulk deal does not go through then get walcott,he can do the same job like hulk.thanks
i think robin to etihad(city).walcott to stamford bridge.cheers for theo and robin.robin decision was greatttttttttttttttt!
Torres is finally looking like the torres we used to see and if that is the case hazard mata and walcotts pace and passing ability will be a deadly combination and as always our great defense and midfield if it happens it could be one deadly squad for us next year not including hulk which who knows what will happen cuz I am getting tired of hearing about that drawn out deal
what happens in Arsenal is really ridiculous. They (the players who happen to be their captains lately)show absolutely no respect and act like true mercenaries. But that’s their problem to solve, so as far it concerns Walcott, thanks but no thanks. Except I don’t think he is a good footballer (he’s a very good athlete, who occasionally plays football) , I don’t think he matches the squad’s mentality.Unless he comes for a fee not over 10mil. and accepts he’ll be a squad player , as I said thanks but no thanks.
I can’t wait for the season 2begin, Di Matteo plz only Sign what is neccessary
I really cannot see Theo Walcott leaving Arsenal at this stage of his career and can see the Gunners doing everything to keep him. I think a ‘deal’ involving Victor Moses coming to Stamford Bridge is far more realistic for next season.
I tink walcot wil also be good on d flank wit the combination of Hazard,bt it would make more sense 2 securing Victor moses signature,bcous he is kindof skilled and fee is cheep 4 a big club lyk chelsea 2 keep on competin with some litle clubs.ABRAMOVICH ROMAN pls do smth 2 move d club man
Buy him as support for Torres !
Chelsea dont need Theo Walcott,We already av Marko Marin,Hazard…..i dont lyk hw Walcott use 2 play…only speed
Not really sure if I’d like this purchase…I guess for the right price, it would be alright but I would be upset if we spent anything over 10….Walcott has always had tons of pace pace but never really found the final ball. He is still young but I think w the signing of Marin and sturridge I don’t think it’s absolutely necessary. I do think it’s important to keep our options open because Chelsea shouldn’t get in a bidding war especially for someone like Walcott
Walcott wil not leave and will stay at arensal becasue he’s very loyal and I hulp to c him as our new captain I have faith in walcott to staY he won’t make the same mastake van persie made
He’s undying love for arensal is way better then a big salary and arsene wenger will keep him at all costs
