@john0711 I was asking of
players worse than Giroud
for Arsenal in terms of finishing.I consisered finishing only.Out of your list when all are in form you can argue that Walcott is better.But in terms of finishing he's the worst of that lot.Only Gervinho's finishing is worse.The guy doesn't deserve this club and so does many of our current
players.Face reality he's odinary and if you were a manager and wanted success would you put in a # 30
bid for Giroud?Yet his stats suggest he may be worth # 30 showing the contradiction between stats and real life.The earlier we get some average
players out of our club and stop defending the indefensible the better
for us all.With this kind of mentality success will be far
from this club.

from the offset in my mind this was done deliberately by Wenger and the board in order to say to the AFC fans that «well we tried to get him but....»

bid upwards of # 40 Million and a
player exchange I may be getting ahead of myself but f we were to get rid of any of those guys I'd rather it be in a deal to a team, that couldn't provide a threat to our title ambitions whilst it simultaneously being a deal that advantages all parties.

that's a joke you know right... apart
from the Barca rumour years ago, which other top club have come with serious

players or bring in a coach who can shape the young minds into champions... you don't do the same thing year after year and expect a different result

If Barca make a cash + Rafinha
bid for Bellerin we should sell him.We should also demand a satisfying amount.In the future if Rafinha wants to go too we can let the cycle continue.All we have to do is make sure we benefit
from their talents.I still imagine what if Wenger had accepted the Thiago Alcantara and Bojan + cash
bid for Fabregas.They could've have been far better than they are today under Wenger had he accepted the offer years back.Let's not make the same mistake with Bellerin.I don't know if he'll even be staying beyond next season.Bellerin is very expensive as of now and to me we should cash in.A
player like Rafinha will definitely become a great
player in Arsenal.He just needs his chances and can do that.At times you need to have foresight in business.It's not just about keeping the
player you want to keep but also about doing everything possible to make sure you're always profiting.
