Now is the time for lookman to come into the side Walcot has not done enough lately for me. I think he is going to be the real deal the way he went past 2-3 Chelsea defenders was brilliant in such confined space.

{Ed025's Note - i agree metz and would love to see him get a run of games, but marco sees these guys day in day out and we have to have faith that he is doing the right thing mate, its baffling to me i must admit but i have every confidence that silva knows his onions..

Ed025 that may well be the case but surely it is no secret now that reports of Lookman turning it on in training and practice games cannot have escaped all of us. That being the case perhaps it has taken this long for his attitude (apparent) to be ironed out.

{Ed025's Note - maybe so BCT, i think the lad has bags of talent and i would like to see him have a run of games so we can see what he brings to the table mate, at the expense of theo if i was picking the side..

I would guess it is pretty close to Lookman starting a game now. If Walcott was better defensively, then maybe there would be an argument, but as good as they both are attacking (when in form) . they are both poor defensively. So I would guess Lookman will start a game very soon.

{Ed025's Note - i hope your right degsy..

I agree Degsy. The squad we have now - players need to know if you don’t perform for 2-3 games then someone is going to get your place. Healthy competition- on that note I think Bernard could be dropped.
I.

The way Lookman beat 4 players in the space of 2 yds was one of the best pieces of skill I've seen all season on the other hand Walcott's woeful control from a brilliant Sigurdsson pass was one of the worst. It's time to get Adi in the team two or three games sitting on the bench won't do Theo any harm at all. Marco is a top manager in the making I'm sure he won't shy away from this decision now just the centre backs to try and fit in!

The manager has handled him superbly in my opinion Ed. If he had been thrown in when we were struggling last season, or even earlier this season, I believe his attitude may have been suspect. He now knows he has to earn and keep his place with effort and performances. Silva does the simple things right!

{Ed025's Note - no argument from me degsy mate..
