Walcott wants assurances
FA Cup Final hero Theo Walcott will discuss where he is to be used and how often as part of his contract talks with Arsenal.Advisors for Walcott, who has just a year left on his £90,000-a-week deal, will finally sit down with the Gunners this week to talk about a new long-term agreement.
As well as seeking more game time, however, the 26-year-old England forward is keen to find a balance between playing out wide and up front with recent displays strengthening his case.
It is an issue that also surfaced during Walcott’s last contract negotiations.
He is set to make it clear in this week’s discussions that he is NOT pushing to play as the main striker in every game.
The former Southampton starlet accepts he is better suited in wider areas, while Arsenal’s first-choice frontman, Olivier Giroud, has scored 19 goals in all competitions this season.

Micah Richards considering his options
Micah Richards turned down a bumper contract at Manchester City last season in order to find first team football.He moved to Serie A on loan but struggled for game time with Fiorentina.
Richards says his time in Italy has improved him as a player, but he's ready to move on.
So, what are his options?
"The Premier League is fantastic but I had my best season at City under Roberto Mancini and obviously he's at Inter Milan now, so maybe that could be an option," he told the Daily Mail.

Liverpool close to securing Milner deal
Liverpool are close to finalising a deal for Manchester City midfielder James Milner, reports Neil Jones.The Reds are keen on the out-of-contract England international and will hold advanced talks later this week.
Milner has long been identified as one of Liverpool’s top targets, and has been reluctant to commit his future to City due to concerns over playing time.
And now Liverpool are confident of agreeing a deal that would see the 29-year-old move to Anfield on a free transfer on July 1.
A number of other clubs, including Arsenal, have expressed an interest in the versatile former Aston Villa man, but it looks increasingly as though it is Liverpool who have won the race.
Fans will hope he proves more of a success than the last ex-City player they signed.
