Spurs legend Waddle: Arsenal winger Walcott has not learned

Tottenham legend Chris Waddle isn't surprised Arsenal winger Theo Walcott missed England's final World Cup cut.

Waddle said in March that Walcott lacks "a football brain", and told BBC Five Live that he stands by those comments.

"He's had a long time at Arsenal, he's playing with fantastic players, a lot of young players around his age group. He's never nailed his shirt at Arsenal. I've got nothing against the lad. I just think it's no surprise for me he's not on the plane. I look and I just think he doesn't seem to understand the game."
