Sky Sports news sources have reported that Arsenal midfielder Theo Walcott has been left out of the England squad for this summer’s FIFA World Cup in South Africa.
This is probably the most surprising omission since all along it looked as if Theo was guaranteed at least a place among the final 23. 
Theo was selected for the last World Cup in Germany before he had even played a premier league game for Arsenal.
It has not really worked for him in the last two England friendlies, his final pass always lets him down.
I’m happy for Ledley King, he is a massive massive talent and going to the World Cup in South Africa is the icing on a very successful season with Tottenham despite all those injuries.
I’m also happy for Joe Cole the most creative player in that England midfield.
Players left out of the squad Darren Bent, Adam Johnson, Leighton Baines, Theo Walcott, Tom Huddlestone, Scott Parker and Michael Dawson.
The full team is going to be officially confirmed at 4pm today
