“Walcott is a virgin, Walcott is a virgin, L’la la la, L’la la la”
Not the wittiest effort I’ve heard from the Loftus Road faithful, but
it will stick in my memory if Theo Walcott really does fulfill the
potential that Arsenal, apparently, value at £15 million. I
saw the 16 year old play today in what might have been his last match
for Southampton. I noticed him only twice. On both occasions, he
received the ball and sort of exploded forward, dancing over 2 or 3
lunging tackles as though they didn’t exist, before allowing the ball
to run just a little too far. His pace seems very impressive indeed,
though it wasn’t enough to stop us gaining a rare victory.
Hurrah!
