Time to give up on Walcott...

As you all know I gave up on Walcott nine years ago when I realised he could not control a football. Been telling you all for years he is a waste of space.Someone out there must be daft enough to offer us 12 million for him. Leicester or West Ham perhaps.

He scored in most of the big games this season and you cant blame him for the leaky defense unless you think hes is superman!.

It's funny, the first time I saw Walcott I was shocked - he actually couldn't control a football properly !

Now in over a decade he has got a bit better but if you do anything for ten years you will get a bit better at it - his ball control will always be poor but I think ultimately the biggest problem is that he doesn't have the drive to be a top player - literally the LAST person you look to when you are losing and being dominated and really up against it in a football 'war' away from home & need a goal is Walcott - that mentality of being able to change a game is one of the reasons Alexis is the player he is.
