The Ox has no end product. We couldn't carry him and Schlup.

We would need a rowing boat in the river to retreave the ball every home game.

Perhaps that could be a job for Pearson.

It would be nice to see him back at work.

Are you an ostrich?

I think he's a lot better than Walcott. I'd take him if the price was right because I think we're a club where he'd get his career back on track. Doesn't strike me as a bad egg.

Reading some of these posts really does make me smile. We've really come a long way since the days of Mark DeVries and Momo Sylla. 

Me too! 

Even last year when Riyad was not getting a game and we were playing without wingers, we would have bit Arsenal's arm off for Ox.

how times change... :whistle:

Perfect signing for us.

 

Lost his way a bit with Arsenal and now England, Champions League experience, great competition for Mahrez and Albrighton. What's not to like?

I think I would rather have Walcott tbh a better finisher, similar pace and can play on the wing or join up with the striker.

PLEASE Walshy and Rudkin, don't be fooled by the Ox and Walcott, they're so far below our level it's unreal.

 

He was brilliant that night against Bayern, if we could keep him fit and his injury problems aren't genetic I'd have him here in a heartbeat. I don't want Walcott as he's proved he has little awareness and speed is his only real asset. I don't want us to sign 27 year olds on a downward trajectory and I'm sure his ego wouldn't allow him to join Leicester City.

Walcott's more of a forward anyway, Chamberlain's a wide man and has also played in midfield. I see more of a long-term future for him here than I do Walcott and he's on far more reasonable wages too.

 

Arsenal very seldom get the best from their players in my eyes. We're the opposite and seem to manage to maximise nearly everyone. I could see him sorting his injury problems out here and becoming someone who most want starting for England. Like I say if the price is right I'd be quite happy with this one.

Ox is better than Walcott and Ox does seem to at least have a brain. Walcott is a brain dead footballer. I'd take Ox if the price was right. He's on £55k a week at Arsenal so he's not out our wage budget. Walcott is on £140k a week, which is scandalous, but that's Arsenals problem.

Also, Ox is 22 so he can still learn and improve. Walcott is 27 and is on a downward trajectory. I actually think it will be hard for Arsenal to ship Walcott out due to his shockingly high wages.

Both should leave Arsenal. Neither will play to their strengths. Walcott I see as a poorer Vardy.

I would rather keep our current wingers than sign Ox. Injured too much plus he always seems to make the wrong decisions on the pitch, brainless.

To be fair to Arsenal, they have gotten the best out of players over the last 6-7 years. RVP, Fabregas, Song, Nasri, Adebayor. They've just struggled lately with their British players in Ramsey, Wilshere, Walcott, Ox and Gibbs.

Problem with Walcott is that he isn't good enough to be a winger. He can't dribble, can't beat a man, and he can't cross. And he isn't good enough to play as a striker since he can't lead the line well enough and isn't prolific enough to be relied upon. So he's in this no mans land and in the wilderness, and at 27 it's quite sad to see because this is supposed to be his prime years in his career.

Walcott has killed his own career by rotting at Arsenal for 10 years. I feel for him, because each time he's decided to stay he's probably done it with the best intentions, but ultimately it's what's killed him as a footballer.

 

Ox should be looking at Walcott and alarm bells should be ringing. If he stays at Arsenal, his career will be a mirror image of Walcott's.

 

Maybe Theo can rescue himself if he moves on - I wouldn't want us to take the chance at £100k+ a week though. 

 

I'd snap Ox up in a heartbeat however. 22, bags of experience, not extortionate wages, still a lot of potential. No brainer as far as I'm concerned.
