Both Walcott and Jack Wilshere rushed to the Arsenal bench to celebrate with physio Declan Lynch, who helped both players back to full fitness following injury.
Lynch leaves Arsenal at the end of the season to join Bath Rugby and Walcott insists he will be sorely missed at the Emirates.
“Declan’s going to be truly missed," Walcott added. “He’s moving on but he’s a man I’ve got to know very closely through the rehab on my knee. He’s a great personality, a great man and a great physio. He’ll be truly missed and will never be forgotten.” |
