Redknapp: Arsenal's Walcott can build on England performance

Former Tottenham star Jamie Redknapp hopes Arsenal ace Theo Walcott can build on last night's performance for England.

Walcott came off the bench to score one and create the winner against Sweden.

Redknapp wrote in the Daily Mail: "I've been feeling sorry for Theo Walcott, but he didn't feel sorry for himself.

"He was aggressive and direct and he made such a difference.

"He's had to take his place in the pecking order and he's the young player everyone wants to criticise.

"I hope this impact performance gives him belief."
