English attacker Theo Walcott secured his move to Everton from Arsenal a few days ago for a deal worth £20 on a three-year deal. After struggling to find form at Arsenal this season, the move to Everton might turn out to be a great one for the player and great for Everton as he is a powerful attacking option.

Since the start of the season, Walcott has failed to create an impact in any of his appearances and could be down to confidence. However, after coming on as a sub in their previous game against West Brom and providing an assist for the goal, Walcott could be a potent threat for the Toffees.

Despite a lot of fans hurling abuse at the player, Walcott does have the ability and mindset to come back from the undervalued position he finds himself in. Allardyce could help revive the player's international career as well but the 28-year-old will need a string of spellbinding performances at Everton before he could even be considered to be picked in Gareth Southgate's England World Cup squad.
