Theo Walcott quotes:

I'm showing the boss what I can do. I was bought as a striker and I always believe I am a striker.

The game must have been past my bed-time.

I was a Liverpool fan simply because my dad followed them. Unfortunately I wasn't born when the team had their golden era, but I enjoyed watching the likes of Michael Owen, Robbie Fowler and Steve McManaman when I was growing up. When Liverpool won the Champions League last year, I went mad. I was shouting so loud I think I woke up the entire village where I live!

I've been consistent in patches this season.

If you're not frustrated that you're not playing football then you shouldn't be playing football

T was a brilliant feeling to make my debut and to hear the crowd chanting my name. It made me play much better.
