Who said anything about selling him!?
Arsene won't. Recently he's been praising Theo in his letters
Sell him?
You couldn't give him away ffs!

Walcott scored more goals than Bale in the North London Derby this year
Monkey Bale is back to being a £150m after his performance against the mighty Bolton!
Mind the Gap.
Before you sell anyone,a better replacement should be in place,not like Spurs and Berbatov.
While I agree that some people need to read this, as far as I am concerned, this article might as well be titled "playing russian roulette with a magazine-loaded pistol would be a mistake".
The main reason it would be a mistake, is because the team he went to would probably play him in his rightful position, up front.
Whenever Walcott plays up front he looks pants. The main reason we shouldn't sell him is that he will come up against us (playing for Chelsea or whoever), we will push forwards, get hit on the counter attack as always and he will destroy us.
Is Chicken the only decent Spurs poster left? Certainly the only decent one I've seen today.
I rate Theo, I don't see why everyone expects him to be brilliant every game, apart from the very best players no one is.
One thing is certain, he is very much a confidence player, and when on form he can change games, but when he's not he can look very ordinary indeed.
I think he's improved in the second half of this season, his crossing has been much better recently, and he's always been fairly handy at finishing, except when low on confidence. I'd be pretty annoyed if we let him go, because I think he's one for the future.

You just know some idiot is going to go to town on that comment.
Hopefully now that I've pointed out in advance that they are an idiot... they won't

==========================================
Until he works on his first touch, we can't afford to play Teo up front.
He'd barely score....
I'm going to make a point.
But in a new paragraph, I'm gonna another point which relates to the previous point.
So I'll start a new paragraph off again, instead.
This should hopefully get my point across a lot clearer.
Oh, alright then, I'll create another paragraph.
I'll make my final comment in this last paragraph.
..... OP
We should sign Walcott to a long-term contract. he is a very good player and will be valuable to us.
Ahhh thanks HenrysCat.
In_Arsene,
His first touch (control) seems to be fine when he has a goal scoring opportunity - its when he has to think outside the box (excuse the pun) when he's played out of position on the wing, that he struggles to know what to do with his first touch.
I honestly think he's been wasted. I dread to think what kind of player he could have become had Wenger continued his development as a centre forward.
Theo couldn't suck a golf ball through a garden hose
fake
Theo couldn't suck a golf ball through a garden hose
======================
Why would he want to?
Think he's best as a wing forward for now, he needs to improve a few aspects before we play him up front.
He has probably never even thought about it or ever will. I cant think of any reason why he would want to. I just dont think he could.
Theo !!!!!
It's ridiculous what people expect of him, if he makes a couple of mistakes and everyone things he's rubbish. First-touch and a finish like he did against Villa is as good as anything you''ll see yet that seems to be expected as the norm. If you set the standard unrealistically high it will only fail to achieve.
I'm not convinced he's an out-and-out forward, I think we actually play him in a good position as he can get forward easily and does get one-on-one's. If he's a forward he needs to be able to head the ball, I'm not sure whether he's tall or strong enough to do that well?
Wow Dubbed actually bigging up one of our players !
Completely agree that selling him would be a mistake. He has an X-factor about him that can't be replicated through practice. Plus he is still extremely young, and is showing lots of improvement recently!
