If there's anybody who can offer advice to Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain about representing England at a
major football tournament as a teenager, it's his Arsenal teammate Theo Walcott. Theo knows all

M'Vila is also attracting interest from Italian giants Inter Milan and
Champions League finalists Bayern Munich.

the Gunners and Chelsea's defensive strategy was expected to draw a similar reaction out of the
Frenchman.
One of the players Newcastle have been linked with all season, is Montpellier captain Mapou
Yanga-Mbiwa. Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa Newcastle linked with Montpellier captain And there is news today in
