Arsene Wenger is set to recall Theo Walcott for Monday night's clash at Reading.
The England forward has been passed fit after missing Arsenal's last three games with a calf injury.
Risk: Walcott could start against Reading on Monday night
It's a gamble for the Arsenal manager, who knows that if Walcott aggravates his injury it will jeopardise the club's plans if they decide to sell the 23-year-old next month.
Walcott has just six months to run on his contract and is refusing to sign the 75,000-a-week deal on offer.

AW is ready. with post match comments. It goes like this. " We lost to a better team.Reading are at the wrong end of the table.You only need to turn the table to see. Crisis? Last time we lost eight and still finished third.Our spirit during this X Mas is high!.We only need to improve on the final ball and the last third of the pitch. Defensively ........."

yeh...right on. It will be detrimental to keep a player who heart is no longer there for the club. Walcott is laying good recently but, is he consistently good??...I doubt.

His letting agents take him for a ride. If his been offered 75k just sign it. Stop saying its not about money but playing as a striker.....ummm cose the whole world knows you are already playing as a striker Theo, it's just from the right side of the pitch n you have the freedom to move in the middle like you do in most occasions anyway
