big game players

After Theo's performance on Sunday, (i'm not jumping on the bandwagon btw) I think overall his had an OK season. (with not enough goals).

it got me think, he actually shows up in the big games or when the pressure is really on. vs Udinese in both CL legs, Chelsea (on couple of occasions), against UTD (in the 8-2) he played ok and of course against Spurs on Sunday.

basically it got me thinking.. how many big game players do we have..?

Theo - based on what i have said about him and at 22, his performance should get better and more consistent

Koscielny & Wilshere
both players on there performances the CL, games vs Barca and the consistency throu out.

Robin van Persie based on his outstanding performance this year.

thoughts?

Van Persie shows up week in week out regardless of opposition. but yeah we do seem to up our game against the big sides (bar united), especially at home.

We win Tottenham and now we are a team for the 'big' matches. I'm sorry, but before Spurs we had only won one game against the top 6, we were and may still be the worst team in the top 6 in the big games.Walcott big game player? last week it would have been 'why is Walcott still playing for us?!?!?!?!' I would love it if he performed more consistent but i'm 100% sure he will not turn up next week.
