Walcott will make a great pundit - will be a breath of fresh air to hear him talking sense in this era where 'banter' and fake outrage to be clipped up for social media seem to reign supreme...
it depends. The well spoken pundits never say what they're truly thinking. They are too polite to call a spade a spade. For example I couldn't see Walcott pointing out how rubbish Maguire is
Sadly, Walcott’s character is not what makes a successful pundit. ‘Banter’ and fake outrage is what people think they want to see. No room for down-to-earth, non-attention seeking people like Walcott.
It’s been really interesting to hear more from Walcott. He’s such a thoughtful guy and articulated his thoughts well, I hope he can do something in media
Honestly mate, he's very articulate and all of his thoughts and opinions are considered. He's a very smart guy; you can tell. I'm supposed to hate him for being a scummer and I just can't!
I watched it couple years ago, very good film. I hadnt heard of it before i watched it though, i think this is the case for many people. Also “Bad times at the el royale” is a great film, very taritino like
Great choice wasn't it! I hope Gary has watched it now and anyone in the comments that hasn't seen it because you're missing out! It will at worst enter your top 10...
I was hoping theo would have acted like most of us would act at garys response, which would be something like "what you've never heard of no country for old men? are you joking? coen brothers, do you, do you know who they are?"
@@dlmqsd Not at all, he didn't even start having injury issues until his early 30s. He was a great player but to act like he could've been on the level of those guys, especially Iniesta, is too far.
@@sm42941 If Santi had played for Barca then he'd be talked about with Iniesta for sure, unfortunately he didn't win many trophies cos he played for minor clubs. That's not a knock on Iniesta, either, he was an incredible player, but people clearly don't know just how insane Santi was, hence this thread.
Always great to see the man behind the footballer and it's enjoyable how often they come across as really nice and well considered people. Really enjoy these interviews
Him and Phil just waste their money and privilege. They're like council estate lottery winners. Working class and unsophisticated. They're actually proud of the fact that money hasn't changed them but then what's the point of having that money?
something i love about the football community is the sadness we all felt for jack Wilshire. We all make jokes about him being jack wheelchair, but its a shame his career ended so soon due to injuries, can only imagine what a top player he could've been
Injuries ruin a lot of players careers. At least he actually was able to have a professional career at the highest level, some kids get injured before important academy trials and lose everything.
@@richardsmith9615 no, it's because wenger had a blind spot when it came to goalkeepers and centre backs. All he had to do was sign 2 strong centre backs and an experienced keeper to compliment the array of attacking talent and Arsenal would have been up there. I remember him saying no to Marc Schwarzer from Fulham for £3m as he thought he could make a top class keeper out of Almunia. Then he had the chance to sign Jagielka, Distin and Cahill all for very reasonable prices but chose to spend more money on Vermaelen and Koscielny.... who were never upto it 🤷♂️
You mention 4 offensive players and state we had a great team, mate come on. We had some great players going forward, but like the saying goes "Offense wins you games, Defense wins you championships" and we were severely lacking in the defense department.
@@N2theLAS Mertesacker was one of the best defenders I've ever seen. He was scapegoated for cowardly and lazy midfielders. But yeah, we were always light at the back and stacked in forward positions.
wow! I live in this village and never thought id see Garry here, you can just about see the corner of it in 7:46 - great to see such an interview take place in my hometown
Feel like every time Gary does one of these, the guest will always mention something super famous that Gary's never heard of. No Country For Old Men and Iron Man, really?
Im a Gooner so im a little biased perhaps but what a lovely, down to earth guy Theo is!! Would love to see and hear more from him in the game. Get thay podcast started Theo! And kudos to Gary as always for these interview, top interviewer and pundit!
Very Good from Gary & Theo; Completely different styles & eras & backgrounds (Samuel L. Jackson). Fascinatingly thoughtful answers from Theo. Gary has really honed his skills on this Walking Interview/Chat👏 Did Gary really not know who 'Iron Man' was??🙃
I think he might have actually been faster than Bolt over 40m. If I remember correctly, Bolt was quite a slow starter. Relative to other sprinters of course.
@@richardsmith9615no chance. A world class (nevermind best ever) who is definitely faster than any footballer and Walcott out of the blocks, even if they are a slow starter 😂
@@ln5747 "Split times published for Usain Bolt's 9.58 seconds world record 100m run list his first 40m time of 4.64 seconds (though the next 40m of that race with a running start was 3.28 seconds)." Taken straight from first result on google...
Always was a good guy Theo. For someone who started football so late he really maximised his superpower to have a great career - 100 goals for Arsenal, many England caps, 15 years in the Prem etc. A good role model for sure. He's like a Christian version of Deontay Wilder lol, one insane attribute but learnt how to put it to the ultimate use.

Agreed also he was never a particularly high IQ player so can't see him doing in depth technical analysis. @@WOOOPdoctorFROGhere
He just said he supports Liverpool and thinks Van Persie was a better finisher than Henry so he is clearly saying what he thinks.@@WOOOPdoctorFROGhere

Theo retiring makes me feel old
Made me feel old when he made his debut 😂

All Arsenal players of that era mention Santi Cazorla. Was so underrated in the main stream media
Injuries robbed him of a career equal to all of those guys mentioned above. Magical player

My dad bought me my first Arsenal shirt with his name. He passed away a few years ago and anytime I see Theo it refreshes old memories.
Always great to see the man behind the footballer and it's enjoyable how often they come across as really nice and well considered people. Really enjoy these interviews
It's almost like they're just normal people like me and you but are good at football.
Almost like normal people!? They're not aliens. They are normal people.
@@limarofipamaThey aren’t normal tho. A lot of them were millionaires by the time they were early 20s, surrounded by other millionaires
Always thought Theo was a very down to earth, articulate, likeable guy. Wish him all the best!
"I like good movies" Yet never heard of "No Country for Old Men" is a very Gary Neville type vibe 😂
Probably not good enough for Gary 😅

See the players in these situations..good work Gary and the team
this formula the overlaps made for gary to interview former and current players is so so good. i watch all of these and they're so easy to watch.
Gary is top class at this! Seriously could have watched this for a few hours! Theo TOP MAN
Boring

What a super guy Theo is...on his day...absolutely electric! Happy retirement and definitely do your own podcast ..Nice one Gary! 😀
Walcott, RVP, Nasri, Fabregas. We had a great team but a shame we never won the league with these players
Well, that's cos whenever we got close, we sold our best player.

He comes across as a very nice, well adjusted fella 👍
Great interview and seems quite intelligent. I couldn't help but look at the scenery. The Cotswolds never fails to impress.
Thanks, I was wondering if it was somewhere in the Gloucestershire Water Park.
My favourite Theo goal would forever be the goal he scored against Chelsea (the one where he got tangled, fell, got back up, and scored) ❤
Good to see Theo being so open and candid
Theo what a top guy!
Wherever this was filmed looks absolutey gorgeous!
The Cotswolds. Went there for a holiday a couple of years back, beautiful part of the country. Highly recommended.
Theo Walcott….Well Done Sir No country for old man is a hell of a movie!!!!
Walcott could be a class pundit! He speaks so well!
No Country For Old Men is an absolute gem 💎
Theo seems like such a sweet guy
The area this is filmed in is gorgeous
Cotswolds
Bilbury
I think it’s a village called Bibury
Looks like Cotswolds
One of the few who appreciate the brilliance that was Santi Cazorla😎

14:50 Gary: The world is in front of you. Everything's there.
I like those words
Very impressed with Theo. Articulate, thoughtful, considered. Get him on the TV!!
This is a great conversational show and Gary is first class
This was the most unexpected overlap for me… theos far smarter than I ever gave him credit for. Expect him to go on and do well
Theo walcott is my alltime arsenal fav player watching from my schooldays i love the way of he play always☺☺☺
Can’t believe Gary hasn’t seen no country for old men absolutely brilliant film
One of the best 👌🏽
been looking forward to this for a while
Always think of when he left Barcelona in the dust when it comes to Walcott. So quick.
United fan here, was a pleasure listening to this. Good bloke
Theo is that player at a rival club who you quietly like and respect.
Love it good questions Neville more of it plz xxx
1:09
Just finished reading his book. Makes sense, all that energy and attributes.
Im a Gooner so im a little biased perhaps but what a lovely, down to earth guy Theo is!! Would love to see and hear more from him in the game. Get thay podcast started Theo! And kudos to Gary as always for these interview, top interviewer and pundit!
Such a nice bloke. Hope he enjoys his retirement.
seems like a lovely lad!
also does he live in hobiton?
Theo carried himself so well as a teenager in the spotlight. Still does. Hope he stays in the game in some capacity.
Love these quickfire questions really interesting
Cheers for all the memories, once a Gunner, always a Gunner! Enjoy retirement Theo!
David Yates being theo's uncle is something I didn't expect. Theo retiring makes me feel old.
My favorite player as a kid.
Good to see he's stayed really humble, considering he was thrown into the limelight as a teenager.
Walcott was heralded as many things in his career and had alot of pressure placed on him. He's actually quite an intelligent and thoughtful guy.
Great interview, Theo seems like a very down to earth person.
Any more of these quick fire videos coming up? They’re class 👍🏻
Legend Walcott big fan even as an LFC supporter
For those that don’t know this man was proper rapid! Had 96 or 97 pace on fifa back in the day
It's not that fast compared to R9, who had 99 Pace on FIFA
@dappadondadda7227 Fifa stats were stupid back then lmao, all the top players had 99 stats
@G5947X ... I do think that 99 pace for R9 pre injuries was justified though.
No Country for Old Men, what a great shout.
This guy is the next Gary Lineker on MotD
Theo is such a lovely bloke.
Theo comes across like such a lovely bloke
Pleasantly surprised by Walcott
Like you Britts say
“What a lovely bloke”

Very Good from Gary & Theo;
Completely different styles & eras & backgrounds (Samuel L. Jackson).
Fascinatingly thoughtful answers from Theo. Gary has really honed his skills on this Walking Interview/Chat👏
Did Gary really not know who 'Iron Man' was??🙃
Have to watch these twice; first to listen to the questions and answers, second to watch how people react in the background.
Theo Walcott 40m sprint - 4.42s
Usain Bolt - 4.22s
I think he might have actually been faster than Bolt over 40m. If I remember correctly, Bolt was quite a slow starter. Relative to other sprinters of course.

@@lukesanders7194 yeah. 10.6s at 15yrs old is ridiculous though. And he could’ve gone faster.
As a lifelong Manchester United fan and a movie freak.. Gary Neville not having a clue on 'No country for old men ' wound me

Yeah, it was there will be blood. Ignore me
