He has been FAR FAR superior to Walcott overall this season playing in the same position.
Are u sure . Walcott has been on fire off late . He was the man of the match in the last game against Norwich
for me.How was Gervinho's performance against Norwich? Did u notice Theo's delivery yesterday ? That ball
towards the end of first half where he crossed it right in between the last man and the keeper , with RVP
almost getting to the end of it .
He was much better than Gervinho yesterday . If u read my post completely you will see i have said

expected to chip in with goals . I think he needs to work a lot harder on his technique and confidence will follow .
So i am
acknowledging Gervinho's performances but as you could see not just this game he has been pretty
wasteful in front of the goal this season. Did u watch the last game and how many shots he sent in to orbit .
When u play as a wide-forward you are expected to contribute to scoring , its a different story if he was
playing as a wide player in a 4-4-2 where the onus on scoring would not be so much.Theo has been in great
nick and i do not think Gervinho has been
far far better than Walcott as u suggest.
P.S: Is there anything wrong in asking a player to improve? Even you would agree he has to improve in one and
one situation, so where is the question of my personal agenda against him . Gervinho has many many pluses
he is very much suited to our style , can dribble , has pace , but he definitely has to improve his productivity
in front of the goal .
