Shaw and Bertrand would not be a competition. Shaw beats him in every way possible, that kid is the real deal. If you sign Shaw, then Bertrand might as well consider leaving if he wants actual game time.
Gold or copper? Kelly Brook or Jade Goody? Champagne or Sainsbury's own brand vodka? There are too many dilemmas nowadays as tough as the one the OP poses.
Class act mate, I hear he's a Chelsea fan too which is good on his part As SJW said, I think he's a lot better than Bertrand is! Be good to get another potentially class british left back at the club again.

you are correct he can change a game but one out of 10 .. is it enough to play him everyday? NO.. may be a good sub when need changing things around and try your luck yes walcott can change one game out of 10 ten go missing in the other 7-8 .. that is the opinion of many Arsenal fans who were were criticizing him and were fed up with him in lots of games Welbeck is much more consistent and teamwork player
I don't mean Walcott is a world beater, I'm just saying he's much much much better than Welbeck. As for consistency, we were talking about this season (in the striker role) and Walcott has been extremely consistent for Arsenal.
That's not really the case with Walcott any more. He is much more consistent. He has certainly not gone missing in '7 or 8' games after one good game. He has scored 18 goals in all competitions this season, and has provided loads of assists as well. His only problem is that he is not as effective when he comes up against packed defences, but even then he has managed to score a goal or provide an assist against those type of defences more often than not. Last week against Liverpool was an example of that.
you seem to under rate the role Welbeck dose behind the curtain, going back defending, pressing players up in opposition territory, linking up the play, terrorizing defender with his fast strong runs ..etc read the comment below by SuperJackWilshere10, is now only when Arsenal seem to appreciate walcott better.. welbeck is 1.5 years younger .. and if sir alex choose him over nani, valencia, Chica, giggs.. sure he is doing something good given that top clubs meet in 70-80% of times clubs that sit back and defend in numbers, that is a major issue tbh if he is not good facing them, we are currently having same issue with Valencia who need some space ahead him too to use his pace
It's an issue in that sense that he does not run riot against those type of defences in the same way he does against lesser teams that attack us (Reading and Newcastle). But he has still been able to have a say on those 'big' games. He has scored against Spurs,Schalke,Chelsea,Everton and Liverpool this season. Against City, he was left up front on his own in a team that was down to ten men and against United, everyone was abysmal.
he is adding to his game and improving, and with time & experience he will do better with more organized sides like City or UTD or clubs that sit back and defend in numbers
How anyone can argue that Welbeck is better than Walcott is beyond me. Walcott has done enough now to shake off this 'inconsistent' tag that he always seems to be branded with from a few seasons ago when he was a lot younger. He even has better production this season in terms of goals and assists than 'world class' Bale who plays in a fairly similar position a lot of the time........
