Theo for Sturridge

by **Git** » Wed Feb 22, 2012 11:50 am

THEO WALCOTT has emerged as a shock target for Chelsea.

And the Arsenal and England winger could even be in line for a shock swap with Stamford Bridge striker Daniel Sturridge.

Walcott is rated at £10million as he only has a year left of his deal, while Sturridge's runs until 2014.

Gunners boss Arsene Wenger is desperate for a new striker and has been tracking Sturridge, who is angry at not being offered a new contract.

Walcott, 22, has struggled this season but Wenger is set to offer him a new deal this summer.

Wenger is under pressure to change his wage structure and offer more players mega-money contracts of £100,000 a week — but Chelsea are already paying those sums.

No brainer really. If it's true, that is.

Linkage please?

I'd take that deal in a heartbeat but it isn't true.

I think everyone would take it. We can only dream.

They did buy Torres for £50 million. :lol:

Let us dream god dammit!

I cant see why Abramavich would go for this tbh.

How about a straight swap/plus cash deal for Andy Carrol? How would people feel about that?

Better player, with longer left on his contract than Theo.......never gonna be a stright swap

I think the only thing about this article that is true is that Sturridge wants a new contract.

I'm guessing the 50k a week we refused to give him isn't enough now he's moved to Chelsea and scored a couple of goals.

A lot call players mercenaries on here and some calls are a bit harsh but this guy is on the same level as Adebayor when it comes to it.

I don't even think Sturridge is that good but my god he'll be 10 times better than Theo!
