Theo Walcott reveals his excitement at the prospect of returning to Southampton for the first time with Arsenal.

Arsenal striker Theo Walcott has admitted that he is looking forward to coming up against former club Southampton tomorrow evening.

The match will mark Walcott's first match against the Saints at the St Mary's Stadium - a ground that he left seven years ago to link up with Gunners.

"It will be a very tough occasion against Southampton, but it is one I am really looking forward to," Walcott told the Daily Echo.

"It will be a very special moment for me and Alex (Oxlade-Chamberlain), and also for some of the fans to see us come back to the club."

Walcott is still the youngest player to have represented Southampton at senior level.
