Arsenal’s statistically most creative players this term: with Walcott 3rd and Cazorla 2nd

3) Theo Walcott – 1.8 key passes per match

It’s perhaps surprising to see Walcott on this list, as he’s known more for getting on the end of key passes than he is for playing them himself. During his nine top flight starts this term though, he was exceptional, and this statistic says a lot about the all-round improvements in his game.

Walcott’s pace is other-worldly, and when he’s in the side, he makes Arsenal a far more dynamic and dangerous outfit.
