Theo will stay, its all just media crap. There is not even a single thread of evidence to suggest anything they're saying.

They just do the sums and calculate stuff to cause trouble, talk to the agent who gets a cut from every new contract, hence he's apart of the mischief making.

It worries me slightly but honestly Arsenal is the best place for him.

Its actually weird that in the last couple of months I missed so much on the forum, I was super busy with work and didn't see half the stuff that was written (mostly from Jake and Richard lol)

Dundee,you don't have to watch the games with Jake he talks as much as he writes lol

hey ill toot my own horn thanks...but u gotta give it to me...I'm consistant..

Absolutley mate your very consistant and as much crap as i give you on the forum your very entertaining to watch the football with.

oh good..i thought you were abt to tell me i'm a wan**r haha well good im happy with that..but yeah that theo kid..cant wait till he comes back!!

theo says he wants to play on saturday!!

He might get a sub appearance, but I doubt he'll be playing.

Reminds me of Cesc's comments before the Roma game.

Think Wenger might give Theo a run against Burnly depending on the score if we can get some early goals a 30 min run in the 2nd half might do the trick i think.

Theo out again... probably until the end of the season... apparently he was just walking at training and his knee locked up and swelled.... f**k me we are unlucky with injuries....

uve got u be kiddin me...our CL hopes are setback a fair bit now...FFS!

It's unknown how long he'll be out for. Some sources are talking about it being the season, others are talking about him being back shortly, possibly even after the international break.

we NEED him for CL, no arshavin so theo is a MUST!!! please god let it be a 2 week injury so he's back for villarreal...our injury record is a joke! this was the last thing we needed...bloody cant beleive it!

Isn't this a bloody kick to the guts,what is with all our injuries this is just bulls***,FFS can't we have a rest of all this SH**.Totally agree we will struggle in the cl without him with AA cup tied.

This is absolutely ridiculous, our luck with injuries are horrible! he didnt even get injured in the match, thats what pisses me the most, f****ng hell

we are cursed. that is all.

that's a sensible attitude, I take the same view

this is good news, but what's worrying is the apparent fragility of Theo. For him to injure a knee badly enough to stop him playing just through "walking" is not a good sign. hope there is no weakness in his knees, cos without his speed he would not be half the player.

The good news boys is that he has only just turned 20 so he has time on his side he's not even fully developed yet...he'll be ok

Hope this is the 1st of a few to come,

always gonna sign

Thought he'd always sign,but great news in whats been a bad week.

Nice to get some good news.

Hopefully RVP will follow shortly.

Great, we're fcuked!

This kid couldn't hit a bus from 10 yards.

I hope this is not Wenger's solution to the departure of Adebayor.

And is it a done deal yet or what anyway, what's this about Ade not having accepted the deal yet or something?

a good pre-season as a striker can change everything.
same went for Henry... winger -> striker
Cole...striker -> defender
Walcott...winger -> striker
Wenger seems to be very good at relocating players to their inner strengths...

Not too worried about those comments.

If Theo can't hit the side of a bus and he's 20, then he's a lot better than Henry, who claimed, and I'm quoting Thierry, when he first came to Arsenal (and was a few years older than Theo), he "couldn't hit the side of a barn".

I expect Theo to have a mixed season, with some games up front, and others in the midfield. I guess he'll fill in where he's needed most.

Last year we had so many injuries in the midfield and Theo missed a large part of the season himself, so it didn't give him a chance to play up front much, but the year before you could see that Wenger was giving him more of a chance up front.

Lol!

I wasn't aware of that about Henry.

Let's hope we see similar progress from Walcott.

I don't think people should jump to conclusions about Walcott being the next Henry.

People were saying that about Diaby and Vieira but he hasn't become the next Vieira. They're different types of players and although they share characteristics, they're not identical.

I certainly don't think Walcott to be the next Henry.

I think Theo to be completely overrated and I think we've seen all he posesses, speed.

But if Henry was initially unable to hit the side of a barn, and progressed to the striker he now is. I hope we see such a change in Theo. From a kid who can run (without the ball, he more often than not leaves it behind or with the defender) to a decent footballer, capable of scoring and passing. It would be great for Arsenal.

I don't think Diaby will ever be the Viera like. Though Viera is a shadow of the player he once was anyway. Inter would be better off selling him.
