Arsenal forward Theo Walcott ruled out till next year

Arsenal are likely to be without Theo Walcott for their game against Crystal Palace and Bournemouth in the New Year, with the forward yet to recover from a slight calf strain he picked up before West Bromwich Albion.

The 27-year-old has scored 11 goals this season, including one against Manchester City and Arsene Wenger may be looking to give Lucas Perez an opportunity after the forward made a good case for his inclusion after coming on as a substitute in the precious game.
