Fans of Everton have been reacting to footage of Theo Walcott that the Toffees posted to their official Twitter account.
On Saturday night, the Goodison Park club posted footage of the Englishman doing ‘Vol.2 of his stay-at-home exercise class’ (per Everton) and this had some fans slating the attacker.

Has Theo Walcott been under performing for the Toffees so far this season?Yes, not been good enoughNo, been as good as he can |
During this season, the 31-year-old winger has been the Toffees’ seventh-worst performer in the Premier League with a weak 6.41/10 average rating (per WhoScored).
However, following the Toffees’ post to Twitter, while some Everton supporters slated the former Arsenal attacker others were much more supportive of Walcott.
Love this lads attitude. Never rises to the moaners. Just knuckles under and works hard. Form comes and goes but you can’t buy class.

Yes @theowalcott you make it look so easy, if I tried jumping up the stairs like that I’d end up backwards and in a&e !

What do we think?
Having only bagged one goal and two assists over 21 appearances in the Premier League so far this season (per WhoScored), it is perhaps understandable why some are disappointed in Walcott.
However, the response is still a little harsh as the attacker is being proactive in showing people how to workout whilst still at home in what are undeniably difficult times (per Everton), fans should cut Walcott some slack.
