Walcott to confront Wenger

Walcott to confront Wenger

19 April 2008 - 09:56

Theo Walcott is ready to confront Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger over his lack of first team opportunities. The Gunners winger believes he deserves a few games on the trot toward the end of the season.

  • Chelsea to focus on signing Dutch attacker after Hato

  • "I had a word with the manager in October," Walcott said in the Daily Telegraph.



    "I basically said 'what do I have to do to start a game?' He said, 'you've got to be a bit more aggressive'. Not kicking people. But running at players, doing defensive duties and tucking into midfield when we haven't got the ball.



    "Of late, I've been doing all those things, but I still haven't had a run in the starting line-up. Hopefully this weekend I will, and if not I'll knock on the door again and say, 'now what do I have to do?'



    "I have been working hard the last couple of months. I deserve a couple of games on the trot I think."
