"Listen he's had a good week. The guy needs to relax. Try to play well for the next seven or eight months," the former Manchester United captain said.
However, that almost seems like a compliment compared to Sutton's analysis of Walcott's performances for England against Malta and Slovenia over the past week.
Whereas Keane gives Walcott the benefit of the doubt, somewhat, Sutton just takes his game apart after two underwhelming performances for the national team.
"All the fuss about Theo Walcott this season — I don't get it," Sutton told The Daily Mail.
"People are saying he is a changed player. He is neither clever nor creative and he was completely ineffective once again for England. "The Arsenal man has no guile and didn't link up at all or put any decent crosses in all night. His pass appreciation is desperately poor and his defensive clearance just after half-time summed his night up. Everyone has credited Gareth Southgate for having the courage to drop Wayne Rooney, but he needs to learn fast and leave Walcott out. "Andros Townsend was far more effective in his 28-minute cameo."*Gulp*. Hope you're okay, Theo.
