Walcott has no ‘football brain’

CHRIS WADDLE has launched a withering attack on Theo Walcott, accusing the Arsenal winger of lacking a “football brain”.

Walcott, 20, disappointed again in England’s 3-1 victory over Egypt on Wednesday night, further diminishing his prospects of earning a place on the trip for the finals in South Africa this summer.

Waddle has serious concerns about Walcott’s development, and the 49-year-old former England winger, who won 62 caps and helped Bobby Robson’s team reach the 1990 World Cup semi-finals, criticised the young Gunner’s knowledge of how to fill a wide role.
