Wenger hopes to see best of ‘edgy’ Walcott

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger feels Theo Walcott is a "bit edgy" after so long on the sidelines, but hopes to soon see the best of him again.

The pacy England forward has featured just twice since being out for almost a year with a serious knee injury, his latest setback being a groin problem suffered while training with England earlier in the season.

Walcott has been an unused substitute for each of Arsenal’s last three games but may well be given a run-out against former club Southampton today or unleashed from the start in the FA Cup tie with Hull on Sunday.
