Arsenal winger Walcott tipping Chelsea's Sturridge for England impact

Arsenal winger Theo Walcott feels Chelsea striker Danny Sturridge can make an impact at Euro2012.

Walcott knows group opponents France will be a difficult challenge.

"France is a massive test," he told Arsenal Player. "We weren't quite ready when they beat us 2-1 [in November 2010]. We tried a few things that day, which is understandable in friendlies.

"But we have a lot of young players coming into form at this moment in time, players that are playing with no fear. Daniel Sturridge [of Chelsea] is fantastic at the moment and is trying to get into that team. So there are a lot of options for the manager at this moment in time."
