Arsenal winger Theo Walcott has said that it is about time Arsenal players delivered a huge performance for manager Arsene Wenger. Arsene Wenger’s position at the club has become extremely critical in recent weeks, as there is a real prospect of failure to qualify for the Champions League.
Even though Arsene Wenger has repeatedly said that the Champions League money is certainly not necessary for Arsenal at this moment because of their self-sufficient nature, an Arsenal fan will really question the ambition of the club at this moment in time. Arsenal went some way into repaying some of the faith of Arsene Wenger in the young players by beating Blackburn 7-1 recently.
Much has been expected of Theo Walcott since he signed from Southampton for £ 12 million. Even though he has not delivered to Arsenal in a huge way, this has been a breakthrough season for him in many ways. He was once again at his best in the match against Sunderland. It was never going to be easy to take on Sunderland, who come into the match against Arsenal as one of the form teams in the division. Yet, Arsenal managed to comfortably beat Sunderland at their home ground.
“There are so many world-class players in the dressing room, so it is disappointing when we come back from Bolton with a 0-0 draw where we had a lot of chances. It has just been one of those frustrating seasons. Hopefully a lot of those frustrations came out against Blackburn, where everybody stood up for themselves,” Theo Walcott said after the Blackburn match.
Arsenal have now moved into the fourth position in the table after Chelsea dropped points at home in the match against Manchester United. Chelsea could only draw 3-3 with Manchester United after having led the match 3-0. Arsenal ‘s chances of making it past AC Milan are slim according to the Champions League odds online. Good luck Arsenal!
