While Alexandre
Lacazette made his way to the club from Lyon in a bumper deal worth over # 45 million, questions over Alexis Sanchez's future persisted.
After making some crucial interceptions over the course of the game, the Colombian international had a heart - in - the - mouth moment right at the end when Alexandre
Lacazette made a run inside him and was through on goal — only to drag wide with just Hugo Lloris to beat.
Immediately
Lacazette made way for Alex Iwobi.
Alexandre
Lacazette made his debut for Arsenal against Sydney FC on Thursday and promptly got himself on the Arsenal scoresheet.
Alexandre
Lacazette made his Arsenal debut against Sydney and promptly opened his Gunners scoring account with a tidy sidefooted finish.
and this will be the pattern until Wenger leaves... hapless tactically, cant motivate, cant spot weaknesses in players... ozil for
lacazette made no sense, and the fact that deeney made a difference to them while giroud contributed absolutely nothing for us says it all for another very average player who should have been offloaded in the summer... can someone give the board louis enrique's phne numebr asap
Frankly speaking, if
Lacazette made 18 in PL in his first season then I quickly regard him as highly prolific.
Up front Ozil and
Lacazette made some lovely interplay, which sadly didn't result in a goal, but this is what I want to see more.
Lacazette made it four just before half - time but Arsenal fans took to social media to praise Ramsey for his magic and some even speculated that the finish was better then Olivier Giroud's infamous scorpion - kick for the side last season.
We will have to see whether
Lacazette makes the difference on Thursday, but if he does then everyone concerned with Arsenal will over Aubameyang a big vote of thanks.
I honestly don't think we can afford Aubameyang, even though I would prefer him over anyone else, but
Lacazette makes more sense.
wenger wouldnt get martinez, would he want a similar age player to giroud for big money unless he is of exceptional quality?looking at the market now Id say
lacazette makes the most sense as he is 24 and hungry for success.
For one Kolasinac and
Lacazette makes this summer a good start.
Lacazette makes intelligent runs all match long, but as you rightly say the built up is too slow and without Ozil no one has the ability to find him.
Yes you are right I forgot what it's called I think something like like «Premier League Wage Control Rules»
Lacazette making # 200,000 per week Kolsanic making # 150,000 per week and Ozil's increase to around # 300,000 per week surely means we need to sell or release more players.
I do nt think Wenger is looking for a lone striker... he will probably settle with Giroud / Welbeck uptop but a scoring forward like sanchez so the link to Mbappe or
Lacazette makes sense then... they are best played when they have support... I'm wary about Lacazette... he is not really a striker but not a winger either... anyone else concerned that even Deschamps does not play him in the national team and no one seems to want to sign him besides Arsenal if you believe the rumours!
With stars such as Alvaro Morata and Alexandre
Lacazette making move to England this summer, as well as players like Romelu Lukaku and Kyle Walker swapping one Premier League team for another in big - money moves, it seems as if all the title chasers are pushing the boat out this year in the race to be declared champions come May.
Not exact matches
People are only looking at 50M loss in sales but believe me that there are a lot of intangibles to Sanchez staying for one more and worst case leaving for free (1) We
make it to CL and recover the lost revenue (2) CL next year means that even if Sanchez leaves we are still attractive to world class players (3) We don't strengthen our rivals (4) Sanchez can
make Lacazette as deadly as we expect.
If he was then we would have
Lacazette, Wenger wanted him 12 months ago and AFC
made a bid of what was left over from the transfer kitty and AFC failed in that bid, ended up buying a player who Wenger has never shown any indication he has wanted.
I think if
LACAZETTE can keep this up, he's going to claim a place in the french world cup squad next year, his goal scoring instinct is sharp, he knows he won't get too much chances and
makes use of the few ones he gets and he was unluncky not to have scored against chelsea and his header wasn't a fluke, he knew where the post were and he directed the ball, he will be handful for defender when our complete squad starts and luckily for us he's not an injury prone player, having him, Sanchez (if he stays), Giroud and Ozil fit will be vital for us this season and i see plenty of goals..
With
Lacazette being the glaringly obvious addition I think we should save the pennies and
make these two the summer targets.
IMO the very 1st move should be is a record signing to get
Lacazette, someone proven to score and consistently,
make this signing a scream to the world that we are pulling out all the GUNnerS (bah bad pun).
It hasn't quite gone to plan for the 26 - year - old as he's managed just nine goals in 28 appearances in all competitions so far this season, and coupled with Alexis Sanchez's exit last month, Arsene Wenger opted to bring in Aubameyang for a # 60m fee that eclipsed
Lacazette's to
make him the club's new record signing, as per Sky Sports.
In turn, perhaps DT
makes a valid point as even when not scoring
Lacazette contributes to Arsenal's build - up play and he cost significantly less albeit he's two years older, but naturally there will be many who strongly disagree with his suggestion.
Lacazette......... [Both must play to
make them both more effective] Welbeck....
cech bellerin koscienly mertz kolasinac coquelin xhaxa Ramsey Sanchez
lacazette wilshere Would have
made it more difficult for city.
to be frank yedder or
lacazette wont
make us title contenders, but if we add mahrez to either of those - who knows
i worry all the contention is so acidic it will
make its way to
lacazette, maybe it will affect him?
We missed so many: Goretzka, Renato Sanchez, Draxler, Brandt, Fosberg, N'zonzi, Carvalho, Lemar, Seri, Krychowiak, Coulibaly, Kostas Manolas, Van Djik, Ross Barkley and than some... but with all the revenu that we
make on matchday, commercial deals, kit manufacturer and simply the Arsenal brand we had no money availbale as the
Lacazette deal used all of our money LOL... sure... Spurs are building a stadium yet still spent... we are net positive what a shame!!!
this kid had it all and could have been truly great but guess what, you can take the kid out of the hood but you can't always take the hood out of the kid, sterling hangs around with a bunch of idiots who think posting their mate online doing laughing gas is clever and there all living in London, bringing him in would be a huge mistake in my opinion and those of you suggesting to offer theo and money, Im so glad you don't run the club, theo is the best r winger in the league when fit, we also have Wellington silva coming back, not to mention ox to cover or Sanchez if we want to play Danny or mezut on the left, let city have Raheem and let their already volatile dressing room implode, let's get Cech,
lacazette and a solid dm to compete with le coq, sell Chesney to inter for good money podolski could be used as
make weight for Morgan or the like release flamini let arteta and Roz have there last season if they choose or let them go if they want more first team football, Rio to have one more loan Diaby pay as you play and last promote chuba who clearly is going to be an animal, with this I believe the title is ours and if the new 3 settle a real tilt at the cl is possible but please gooners get behind theo he is absolutely essential COYG
Lacazette isn't known for his assists but he would have more if he had players like Alexis around him,
Lacazette has a good pass on him and able to
make space for other attackers, problem has been they haven't scored them.
Giroud should stay and Welbeck to
make space for a world class striker like j martinez or
Lacazette..
Lacazette isn't dead either yet with reports that negotiations are still ongoing, this would also explain Aulas hard stance as it would
make him stronger in negotiations.
Lacazette has welcomed his new teammate to north London, as seen in his Instagram post below, but ultimately more will be
made of it given he's chosen an image of him appearing to slot home an effort in training with Aubameyang watching on in the background.
Utd have
made an approach for
Lacazette lol??
Available?every player is available at the right price,
Lacazette has 26 goals in 30 games if Wenger puts 35mil on the table there's no way Lyon will refuse, for progress to be
made hard line decisions need to be taken!
* We purchase a top quality striker, Benzema, Higuain,
Lacazette (choose your pic) * We give Theo a full season to prove himself up front and hopefully he can stay fit and improve with his hold up play, his movement off the ball and finishing has improved immensely (His finish in the FA Cup final wasn't as easy as he
made it look... with his weaker foot) and we then sign Reus to play on the right.
Instead it is Alex Iwobi who comes in with
Lacazette and Welbeck in attack, while the two wing backs and Nacho Monreal keep their places from the end of Thursday's game, with Koscielny and Mustafi
making up the back three and Ramsey and xhaka in central midfield.
The intelligent running of
Lacazette and Sanchez into the channels gave passing options for Ozil and
made it difficult for the Everton defence to track.
I think Wenger will be elated if he gets back the # 46 million he spent on
Lacazette or even
make a profit.
Even
Lacazette who many here obsess with — can he really
make us title challenger in his first year in the EPL?
Lacazette and Sanchez
make up the four strikers we need.
I can't recall Wenger admitting he's
made Vardy a target... nor
Lacazette...
Yea, that's a right attitude from
Lacazette it shows how intelligent he is... the team should come first and if we can stay solid at the back, it will really
make a difference because we will score at least a goal...
Don't worry,
lacazette will come good, even with wenger, though there are coaches that will
make the arsenal players better
It's no secrete we need a man with pace to play in between and run off the defenders
making use of our world class A / M (ozil / Santi) if I look who us available in the striker position the one that stands out is
lacazette, he has similar qualities to remy, but has a few more tricks..
Combine them with
Lacazette and Mesut Ozil to
make a quartet packed with creativity, technical class, flair and finishing, it has the
makings of a very balanced and talented Arsenal attacking line - up if they are able to get this deal over the line by Wednesday.
i tell u what
makes me laugh, people laughing at zlatan as he scored 40 goals in a «mickey mouse league» but now
lacazette is linked, suddenly half that amount of goals in same season is valid.
Also
Lacazette has been
making intelligent runs in recent games and without Ozil and Wilshere there has not been Arsenal players competent to read his play and find him with a pass.
If you watch Arsenal carefully this season, you would notice that beside defence, one of our major problems is that our midfielders don't
make enough runs into the box leaving
Lacazette isolated and marked out.
