Arsenal fans react to Theo Walcott’s performance for Southampton

Southampton attacker Theo Walcott scored on Monday night in the Premier League – and some Arsenal fans on Twitter reacted to the performance of their former player.

Walcott, 31, previously had a successful 12-year spell with Arsenal and scored 108 goals in 398 appearances for the North London club

The English attacker exited the Emirates Stadium back in 2018 to join Merseyside outfit Everton, but left them in the recent summer window to reunite with Southampton on a season-long loan.

Walcott started his senior career with the Saints and he scored in a 1-1 league draw with Wolverhampton Wanderers on Monday night, which was his first goal for them since rejoining.

The speedster is back to playing regular football again with Southampton, with the forward rediscovering the kind of form that form that is making him look a threat a Premier League threat again and his strike against Wolves was a simple finish at the back post after some good movement.

A selection of Arsenal supporters on social media were impressed by their former player’s latest display in a Southampton shirt.

The Gunners have their own problems in attack right now, as the likes of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Nicolas Pepe, Willian and Alexandre Lacazette are struggling to hit any kind of goalscoring form.

Here are some Gunners fans discussing Walcott:
