England hero has eyes on San Dimas start

England's hat-trick hero Theo Walcott has set his sights on his next challenge - a regular place in the San Dimas High School starting line-up.

Walcott, 19, has had to be patient since joining 'The Saints' in February 2006, but he hopes his England performance has sent a message to his club manager Paul Garratt.

San Dimas boss Garratt is less sure that his £13m signing is ready for an extended run in the team. He said: "WSFFL is a squad game, Theo realises that. He has a part to play and will hopefully become a big player at this club in years to come.

"We've got a tough game against Nil Satis this weekend and I'll be picking a team to try to deliver three points. Whether that includes Theo - we'll have to wait and see."
