I know a lot of Arsenal fans that think this. Never really heard it from the dippers or the renties. I think it has something to do with the fact that the arsenal's ideal footballer is a willowy sapling of a man child, graced ith the skills of platini and the physical presence of a band of elven dancers.Gillespie said:

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
This season Rooney looks much leaner than previous ones where he did appear to be packing an extra few pounds, so to say that he'll put on weight and struggle to maintain his career has no logical basis.
Hehe
Gillespie must be on a business trip.

Noticed by the way that Theo Walcott made his 24th Aarsenal appearance yesterday. Still haven't found the back of the net...

To be fair, he's not started much, and he's always playing as a right winger.

When did people starting being fair in this thread?
I think Walcott has peaked to be honest, the signs are all there.

Peaked at Southampton
then why did Wenker decide to buy him? hmmm... suspicious
It's all over for the likes of Walcott and Rooney.
Peaked.
Peaked.
Don't forget the famous "6 goals at Anfield" Arsenal side. They've all peaked too.
Poor Baptista.
Peaked.
Peaked.
The thing with Walcott is, he actually does look shit
He is still 17, I suppose

He reminds me a bit of Bellion
noodlehair said:
You've hit the nail on the head there, Barry
He's 17.
He also happens to be shit.
That's no excuse, Rooney was sending wondergoals past Seaman at 16.noodlehair said:
That's true though, I haven't seen him do a thing when i've been watching. Must have been awesome at Southampton.
CnutOfAllCnuts said:
He reminds me a bit of Auton Mickey in Doctor Who.
Made of plastic, and I expect his head to fall off any moment.

and counting...
Cornell said:
That's an extremely interesting way of describing one great goal.
1 more than Theo's scored for Arsenal...
Theo Walcott should be honoured to be discussed in the same thread as Rooney.

Jason. You're a complete idiot if you think Walcott is shit.

KFC, you're a complete idiot if you don't understand what is going on in this thread.
Oh, wait...
jasonrh said:
All I seen was you saying Walcott was shit. Perhaps you were being sarcastic I don't know since I didn't have the time to read all 200 and something posts.
Obviously you didn't even read the post I was replying to.KFC said:
Presumably you were in too much of a hurry to have a go at me, since you seem rather fixated of late.
I love you too, KFC, but as I already explained to you, we can't be together. I've got a wife and two cats. And I'm not a raging poofter.
PS. It's "all I saw". I hope this helps.
Walcott looks like he's 12 years old.
Past his best.

He looks stunted. I bet he'll look exactly the same in 10 year's time.
Worry not. Walcott will score a tap in for Arsenal in the last 5 minutes of a game soon enough and he will be England's next saviour. You'll get a whole Match of the Day episode about Theo Walcott and his goal and Motson will have someone else to wank over instead of Rooney for a change.
On a serious note, in terms of his International career i really hope he doesn't end up with as much pressure on him as Rooney gets. Not only is it unfair on the little kid, but i really can't be assed to listen to "Walcott on the ball, can he do something special for England?" every time he receives a pass aswell.
Doesn't matter anyway. He's peaked.

He'll be back at Southampton this time next year.
Only if we draw them in the cup - they're not coming up.thoward said:
Arsenal makes Walcott cohibido and impotent. Peaked.

Gillespie said:
I'd like to know if Gillespie still feels this way given Rooney's recent performances, as he approaches 20 goals.
Although Rooney has not been at his highest standards for some parts of the season, he has still worked hard and contributed goals. Seems to me like he's finding his consistency again.
He he he..
Gillespie is on business trip..

Any news on Gillespie's whereabouts today?
Just worried about him, because he's not posted since his vaunted Arsenal Youth behaved like petulant children at the league cup final.
Rooney gets goals 21 and 22 today, putting him even with PFA Player of the Year Cristiano Ronaldo.
We really could use Gill's expert opinion on whether this is just a minor blip in the inevitable demise of the "man child" that is Wayne Rooney.
