I see Walcott injured himself in the warm up before the game on Sunday and is out for a few weeks. Did Ryan have any part to play in this tragic incident?

The funny thing about this is that he has apparently got the same injury that Wilson P picked up in the warm-up v Liverpool.
Rather magnificently, Arsenal are quoting his recovery time at double that Wilson P required which kind of sums up what a bunch of fannies everyone associated with that club are.
Brilliant!

I just assumed that he did his typical coward act and chickened out of the game with a mystery illness.
Who can forget the wonderful natural justice as he dived to get Delap booked and, while landing, dislocated his shoulder and had to be stretchered off, leaving Arsenal down to 9 men? Or the time at the Emirates where he dived and twisted his ankle, meaning he had to get stretchered off? Or every single time he's played against us, where he has just completely disappeared.
I cannot stand this joke of a footballer who started out as a cheat (remember him getting Marlon Broomes sent off while playing for Southampton), who remains a cheat and who goes further and further backwards under Wenger.

Have to say I quite like Walcott, always seems pretty level headed.

Just for a bit of balance, this is from the Guardian on 4th March 2010:
Theo Walcott, the only Arsenal player involved in the England set-up this week, agreed there had been no malice in Shawcross's challenge. "He's a very humble lad, and a great defender," said Walcott. "Obviously he knows what's happened and feels very bad about it. He's apologised. He's not a player to do those sort of tackles – he'll put his head down and work very hard for club and country. "But there are no hard feelings, not at all. He's sent a few text messages to Aaron. I'll let them get on with it."
Probably went against the Wenger party-line at the time I'd imagine.

Taken from the arsenal program the week after the England game Walcott. "Dirty stoke bastards"

He'd score a lot of goals if played as a striker, Ozil threading perfectly weighted passes through, with Walcotts pace! scary
