It´s pretty impressive for any player to perform at such a steady level throughout many years, however, despite making so many performances, Walcott has not really managed to lift any top level trophy with Arsenal or make a name for himself as a truly influential player.

Theo Walcott is a decent footballer in his own right but he has never managed to take that next step and create his own legacy other than just being that very fast player.

When it comes to key Arsenal figures, it hard to deny that Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez are the most influential and crucial performers for the English Premier League outfit. Continue reading Is Theo Walcott´s place in Arsenal, in danger?
