Arsenal's Theo Walcott has avoided any disciplinary action for making a gesture towards Tottenham fans during Saturday's FA Cup tie at the Emirates.

Whilst he was being stretchered off at the Emirates Stadium, Walcott used his hands to remind Spurs fans that Arsenal were winning 2 - 0.

Both clubs have been asked by the FA for their "observations" in relation to claims that objects were thrown from both the home and away sections of the crowd at different times during Saturday's game.

Meanwhile, Walcott could be out for up to a month with a knee injury sustained in that game. 

The forward has a suspected ligament strain but is due to have a scan which will reveal the true nature of the problem.
