Everyone watching the England, Switzerland match will have cringed when seeing the injury Theo
Walcott suffered tonight after landing awkwardly on his right ankle. My first instinct was that he
had done his ankle ligaments and that means a pretty long lay-off but if his studs were caught and
with his ankle looking like this.
In a rare moment of me saying something interesting on Twitter, I dredged up the statistic that
Arsenal haven't lost at home to a foreign team since 2003. And a dark day that was. 40-odd quid to
stand on the North Bank and watch Arsenal get spanked by Inter Milan.
But since then, part of the reason we are always a danger in the Champions League is that we are
exceptionally hard to beat at home.
