What a brilliant story teller. He will fit perfectly in to a media role if he wants it. He was unlucky in that Theo came along at a time when media and public expectation of England was at its peak. Then there were significant injuries throughout his career that limited his rise. Plus it also coincided with Arsenal's fall from our peak. We're sorry Theo! Nonetheless, he'll always be a legend at Arsenal and despite all of those challenges he's had an amazing career to be very proud of.

Yeah Charlton fan here, but you know good luck for the season. Walcott had an excellent career, in his hat trick against England highlight moment.

It's crazy when you live through a footballer's entire career, from the World Cup call-up in 2006, to retiring in 2023. It makes you feel bloody old, but you also witness the complete evolution of a player, positive or negative. Theo had some great moments, was electric at times and received praise from even the likes of Lionel Messi. He will feel he could and should have done better at times, like everyone in life, but he can look back at a solid career as a professional footballer. Well done and good luck in retirement!

The last Neville sentence is spot on. Whatever you may think a pro player is average or bad, keep in mind there is more distance between you and him, than there is between him and Messi. That's how bad we randoms are, and how hard it is to reach PL pro everyday level. First time hearing Walcott here, he's quit smart btw. And yes, great achievement Theo, well done

The ruthlessness of it back then and the media made things worse. Can only imagine what strength Theo had to go through all that and still enjoy playing football

In other words, an extremely predictable player which defenders easily worked out. I mean, do we consider Daniel James to be a worldie? 🤷‍♂️ And yet he’s the exact same type of player as Walcott - can run like Usain Bolt, but that’s it. No end product whatsoever.

You became a player who made a difference for us and through the ups and the downs we could turn to you to provide the goals to meet our goals. Thank you and congratulations.

He could have so easily been ruined by money and fame and he just comes across as a down to Earth, nice guy. Also must say, really like Gary's interviewing style, he's got a pretty good sense for knowing when to press on something and when to just sit back and let the subject talk.

Theo speaks so articulately and intelligently. He’s had a great career, it is blatantly obvious he still has sooo much to offer the game, as a coach, manager or pundit. I’m a saints fan, I’d love for the club to find a place for him in our coaching setup but from this interview media companies will be falling over themselves to sign him up. At Saints, the club have a mantra “The Southampton Way” it’s a way to sum up an approach to the game but more importantly an approach to life, how to hold yourself in situations, in life and in general. Theo optimises that mantra, a true gent. All the best Theo.

@@franklingoodwin he was way faster than Henry at any point of his career, even Juve Henry was slower than Theo

Sven buggered him up - too much too soon. Has always come across as a decent fella and certainly a real talent. Enjoy your retirement Theo, pleasure to have watched you perform.

What a player. Thanks for all the childhood memories!

I feel so old now 😢

Remember us signing him at 16, time flies. On his day, he was magnificent! Sadly, wasn’t consistent enough to be considered a top top player but will always love Theo! Also, very confident speaker and has many stories we would love to hear, will do well in the media

Will never forget you Theo!! From THOSE goals @ Newcastle, but more importantly for me, those goals against Reading in that 7-5 that made me an Arsenal diehard and football fan in general…thank you for amazing memories

Obviously most people fell in love with Arsenal because of Wenger & Henry..but watching that young kid play for Arsenal was very inspiring & it’s something special no one should ever forget. Thank you Theo 👏🏼👏🏼

Whatever you say about Theo, he achieved more than most in the game. Over 100 goals for Arsenal, several FA cups/community shields. Legend for me, my nephew is named after him ❤

Arsenal legend. We love you❤

Once again, completely on another level when it comes to providing players with a chance to commnicate honestly. Thanks to Theo, Gary, and the whole team.

Classy on and off the pitch. A true professional. Happy retirement Theo ❤

Great chat, what a career he's had and what a future in punditry he will have, so well spoken!

Genuinely one of the top 5 players in Europe ever. Had some great memories watching this fella, love you Theo Walcott.

HAHAHAHHA BEST JOKE I’VE HEARD IN A WHILE

Unbelievable achievement, 18 years in the premiership. Should be so proud of himself.

Well done 👏 and all the best... it's been a pleasure watching this man play.

Severely underrated because of his style of play, and the insane hype. Never forget: his G/As record at Arsenal was better than Eden Hazard at Chelsea.

This is a proof that G/As is not very reliable to determine who is a better player.

Another classic interview, Dele Alli and now Theo Walcott. More like this please, Gary!

Well done. Memories of my prime years were watching these dudes. Thank you for the memories.

The Fabio Capello bit lines up EXACTLY with what Ben Foster said about him

Love Theo and I maintain we would've won the league in 13/14 had he not got injured
