3 Things We Learned From Arsenal’s Comeback Win vs West Ham

3.Theo Walcott could be Arsenal’s saviour this season

Walcott

Theo Walcott is criticised for only really being able to run, and also for his lack of any real footballing talent. Though at least his finishing has improved and now he could turn into the player that Arsene Wenger was hoping for. Two goals today saved the Gunners blushes against a West Ham team they should really be sweeping aside, but at least the England international has finally found his clinical side, as it will help Arsenal greatly in the title run.

Should Arsene Wenger look for a new striker in January and fail to sign one, it may be worth a go to give Walcott a chance at leading the line. It may take the former Southampton man a few weeks to work on positioning, and his speed will work against Arsenal when it comes to playing sides who deploy the offside trap, but his speed in clinicality could lead Arsenal to something big this season.
