    Over the last couple of games he has looked out of depth, his pace is still an asset to have on the pitch but his crossing and set pieces were terrible tonight.

    He's only 17 and will still learn with experience, but does anyone think he's been over hyped about and will take a couple of seasons to fit into the premier league?

    His confidence seems low, I still have faith in him, he's a great winger.

    Walcott can't take set pieces. But who else is going to in the carling cup??but he is still great on the ball

    He is fast with the ball and will grow to be like the next rooney but only in winger form even tho he can play up in a fowards position

    Yeh i think wenger is developing him to be a winger primarily. he seems good at changing players initial position so they play the best. the best example of wenger doing this has to be Henry. Crappy winger at juventus then he comes to arsenal and wenger sticks him upfront. now he is one of, if not the best striker in the world!!!!!
