Theo Walcott on bench for Arsenal as he faces old side Southampton
THEO WALCOTT will start from the bench this afternoon against his old club Southampton as Jack Wilshere starts.
Wilshere played in the 1-0 defeat against Germany at Wembley, but Arsene Wenger hasn't been deterred by Wilshere's midweek exertions.
The Gunners have made two changes overall - Wilshere replacing the suspended Mathieu Flamini and Per Mertesacker returns at the expense of Thomas Vermaelen.
Southampton have made only the one change with Jos Hooiveld replaces Dejan Lovren.
Kick-off has been delayed.
