Arsenal Fans Call Out Theo Walcott For Exuberantly Celebrating His Goal Against Them

Arsenal fans couldn’t help but turn on their erstwhile cult hero, Theo Walcott following his goal celebration yesterday.

Walcott spent 12 massive years at the Emirates Stadium before jumping ship in 2018 but last night, he returned to haunt them.

Less than 20 minutes in at Highbury, the striker dinked home the opener for Southampton and while the Gunners faithfuls expected he would keep his cool, Walcott wheeled away with hands wide apart in a rather exuberant celebration.

Needless to say Arsenal fans were left disappointed. You need to see their reactions..

I still do not know why some people are quick to pick on a player who scored and celebrated a goal. I’m still scratching for answers.

Ex-player or not, players are still human. Any one of them can score and choose to celebrate like it’s nobody’s business. And it really should be nobody’s business.

Cut Theo some slack, Gunners fans. Rather than turning on a player who expressed happiness for getting his job done, I think it’s high time they drag their defence for, time and again failing to tighten up.
