Ryo Miyaichi will be a regular at Arsenal next season, says

Theo Walcott Theo Walcott says full-backs around the Premier League won't want to play against the Japanese teenager next season when he returns to the Gunners



Arsenal's Japanese winger Ryo Miyaichi will be a regular for the Gunners next season, striking fear into full-backs around the Premier League according to Theo Walcott.Miyaichi, 19, is currently on loan at Bolton where he's enjoyed a successful spell and Walcott believes that's a sign of his development which should see him become a Gunners regular next season.

“Ryo has done very well at Bolton,” Walcott said on the Arsenal website.Walcott added: “The way he is playing, there are full backs out there now who are thinking, ‘I don’t want to play against him this week’.”Miyaichi, who made two cameos off the bench for Arsenal before joining Bolton in January, has since made eight appearances for the Trotters, providing two assists and scoring one goal.Walcott continued that he had been impressed by the way Miyaichi handled the recent episode which saw his Bolton team-mate Fabrice Muamba collapse on the field after suffering a cardiac arrest.“It is hard for such a young kid to go there and do what he is doing, showing no fear with everything that happened at Tottenham [with Fabrice Muamba]. It is hard and it has probably hit him definitely," he said.“He will be a better person for it, a better player and I can see him coming back here next year and playing a lot more regularly."
