Welcome Welbeck - Forward, Winger, Prophet

Welcome Welbeck.

A big Welbeck Welcome. There has to be the perfect word play for this but it is just out of my reach.

Welbeckcome Welcomebeck. Whatever...beck.

As I touched on yesterday. Danny Welbeck's arrival is pleasing to me. He is now listed on the website:

 
 
Now we have 3 keepers, 10 midfielders, 9 forwards and... 6... defenders. *gulp*.
 
Welbeck has been talking about a vision. He envisaged a career at Arsenal. He "imagined" playing in the Arsenal team many times and now it has come true. Startling. He also foresaw joining in with our trademark link up play, running onto balls and scoring lots of goals so hopefully he maintains his so far 100% accurate record as a prophet and does just that.
 
I'm certainly all for Welbeck the Seer striking fear and goals into the opposition's defence. After time, defenders will simply give up. "Welbeck foresaw this goal" they'll say. "He is correct in his visions with eerie accuracy." or if the defender is John Terry "'e knowed it'd go in 'e did." not that it would stop him flopping in front of the shot like a dolphin in an effort to stop it when he could have used, you know, his feet. Like a footballer.
 
Here was Welbeck talking to Arsenal player about his vision:
 
(edit: I just realised it's a bit of a tease putting this picture because it looks like you can click play and it will be a video - Sorry! ^.^)
 
Were I granted the opportunity to ask Welbeck the Wise a question, I'm not sure what I'd ask. "Will you score many goals?", "Will Arsenal win more silverware this year?", "Will Suarez bite again?". Maybe "How many minutes will Diaby rack up this year?"
 
If you're reading this perhaps you'd like to suggest some questions below? Then we can make a list and send them off to be answered all at once. Peppering him with questions will probably grow tedious after all.
