I even thought top clubs were in for him.Some three or 2 seasons back many here were debating why he should be our main striker.As soon as you mention any other strikers name people would come out with stats and many things defending him.Even Wenger has defended him blindly in the past.People say Wenger's stubborn yeah.But don't we know that there's a reason why everything happens?Honestly speaking he's the reason why Arsene Wenger has failed to sign a top notch striker because he still believes in him.The funny thing is we signed Welbeck at that time who to me did nothing before to be the main man here.People keep saying Welbeck is hardworking and that he works his socks off.But the question is was that our reason for signing him.Welbeck being signed to challenge Giroud tells me a lot about Giroud's quality.Even Walcott (no offence to him) who has zero CF qualities was even chosen over him for a string of games and all in all I think he did well but has too many defeciencies for that role.We've compromised as a club and it'll come back to bite us.

we won't be signing a striker so please lets stop, i want one as much as any of you guys, but wenger stated Giroud will be the main striker and he even wanted Vardy to play the wings so imo wenger is looking for welbeck replacement.

@Goonster, you are absolutely correct my friend, what we see as the priorities are not Wengers priorities, we see this season after season with Ozil being probably the worst case, we all know a striker and a dm were more urgently needed.Some will say Wenger knows best but clearly he doesn't because our progress is so slow we appear to be standing still.Sanchez came in did well, but we still finished further away than last year.An Giroud still doesn't have any real competition upfront, im not a believer in Walcott as a main striker, if we do get a top striker like a Benzema it will most likely be a last minute deal after every1 has made their moves

There's only Wenger who could buy a striker like Giroud, get us to hate him for all his misses and then force us to want him back so badly when he's injured as we have no other players anywhere near as good in that main striker role.

I agree mostly with what has been said, I do actually think that Lacazette is the cheaper and younger option which will obviously prove vital for Wenger and Aubamayang is a better player maybe but when you consider he will disappear every other year to go and play in the ACON we would be losing our main striker for an important part of the season too often and that has to be a serious issue for any team

We have ONLY one main striker and if he's not in the form that he should be (because he's not the striker we need to win the PL) then we have no one who can really seek out the oppositions net, The last two games we have been mediocre at best Im still NOT convinced that Wenger still has the magic he once had despite a massive improvement in form

So when you see links to mediocre / washed up strikers link Bony be afraid be very afraid as wenger can say he made the purchase in the position we asked for whilst still keeping Giroud as his main man!

Wenger lost the plot when he brought in Giroud... what about the beautiful game involves having a lumbering striker who's main attribute is holding up play... our success with Wenger, and even before, came with pace and clinical striking up front, having a boss in the midfield and having physically imposing CBs... what about Wright, Bergkamp, Anelka, Henry or RVP remind anyone of Giroud (minus the left foot of course)... the formula was broken, which didn't have to be the end of our success, but when you adopt half - measures you can't expect things just to work themselves out on their own... at the very least Wenger should have brought in some wingers that can consistently cross the ball and then spend significantly more time addressing our lack of success with set pieces... ultimately this is why we continued to struggle with consistency and continued to constantly play people in the wrong positions

The fear would be that Wenger uses him as a substitute and keeps Giroud as our main striker.

Wenger wants to play Giroud as the main Striker, this is his plan always.

Vardy was suppose to be our main CF target but Wenger never spoke to Vardy and it was a bit of a joke about how little Wenger appeared to care about that transfer, Perez confirmed that Arsenal looked at him at the beginning of the transfer window and we waited till the end to panic buy a striker, was this a Wenger signing?

I think you'll find that Per is a natural centre forward and that Wenger has already earmarked him as our main striker.

If Wenger still believes that Welbeck can be our main striker one day, he should loan him out to a mid-table team, where he can as much as he's able to, and build up routine and confidence.

Off topic we have Welbeck the striker that never score and some Arsenal fans still think he's a good but because he works hard no he's a flipping striker his main objective is to score goals, Giroud without having half the pace Welbeck has will always be a better striker than Welbeck and the sad thing about buying Welbeck is that I don't see another striker coming in until Wenger leaves.

Against Man City, Wenger played Alexis as the main striker, when the Chilean is not in his best form and only scored once this season.

If Wenger signs Lacazette trust Giroud will not be played as back up but rather our 1st team main striker.

You'd really have to ask yourself if he'd still be here if he wasn't French.Wenger has every right to sell Giroud.If we were very ambitious we would've sold him long ago.We're treating him as if he's a crucial player.The lesson will only be learnt when Lacazette goes out with a long term injury.We will then see how good the back ups are.To me he's not a super sub as he's the kind of striker who requires service.Being a super sub is not enough because remember he's the next in line if anything happens to Lacazette.Giroud was Arsenal's main striker for a reason.Last season 99 % of the matches he scored coming of the bench were matches he should have started to give us that aerial presence but Wenger shockingly started Sanchez.It's a shame fans will blame him next season again for his short comings.The guy is just not good.It's not good enough to be strong in aerial battles alone and weak in almost every other aspect.I expect Arsenal and Arsene to do better.He must be sold.

We have been here before with Olivier Giroud, the worst mistake we fans will make again will be to allow Arsene Wenger keep Giroud as our main Striker.

It's funny how the above article rates Lacazetti as not a big name player yet he remains Wengers main striker target.?

In as much as we want Perez to start but I won't be surprised if Wenger starts with Sanchez as our main striker..

don't think people wanted him to be no. 1 when the transfer window was still open, people had no choice after Wenger says we have enough quality to win the league, and OG is the only main striker, and the transfer window closes with no panic buys

I know that Wenger is more likley to sign a player who is young and cheap but for me the main goal is to get a DM to compete with le coq, and maybe a striker (not Nolito or another player who is in the same rankings as Giroud..)

Wenger now says that he was correct to keep the money in the bank, as he always knew that Theo Walcott would come good and become our main central striker.
