Theo Walcott, a former Arsenal and England forward, has praised Christos Tzolis' impressive performance in his debut Premier League game for the Gunners. Tzolis joined Arsenal from Club Brugge in a £34 million deal this summer and delivered a stellar display at the Emirates Stadium during Arsenal's opening match against newcomer Coventry City.
Bukayo Saka, Kai Havertz, and Martin Odegaard scored the goals, contributing to a 3-0 victory for Arsenal against Lampard's team. Walcott expressed his admiration for Tzolis, stating that the young midfielder reminded him of Alexis Sanchez due to his quick, positive touch and instinct to move forward and challenge full-backs. He also noted Tzolis' distinctive style of play, which includes graceful movement across the pitch and increasing confidence.
Walcott believes that Tzolis' pace, similar to that of Trossard but faster than his own, makes him a valuable asset to the team. As Tzolis becomes fitter and Arsenal players grow accustomed to his playing style, Walcott is confident that the young midfielder will continue to impress.
