Walcott: criticism does not faze me

THEO WALCOTT insists he won’t listen to his critics and has blamed his poor form this season on a horrendous run of injuries.

The Arsenal winger has failed to hit the heights this season, with Chris Waddle savaging his performance in England’s 3-1 victory over Egypt last Wednesday, claiming Walcott ‘doesn’t have a football brain’.

But Walcott answered Waddle in the best possible fashion against Burnley on Saturday, scoring the second goal and giving full-back Daniel Fox a torrid afternoon.
