the only thing our strikers (whoever it will be) need to do is to convert created chances which we had plenty last season and we are going to have them this season too...

The decision not to get a top striker hurt us last season.

By far the best article I have ever read on this site, there was no bias or empty statements, just cold hard facts, the writer even respected wengers budget but still pointed to where he should've improved, there are no excuses, what you read is literrally all u get with arsene, if you gave him a budget of 9m or 1 billion, he will ALWAYS take the risk cause he doesn't give a fk about the consequences as if he was a teenager raging through puberty, his stubborn is absolutely pathetic, can you believe he turned down signing a keeper when almunia was shocking, can you believe he didn't sign a CB when squillaci was awful, can you believe that he REFUSED to sign a CDM for almost 8 years, CAN you believe on one of the most important transfer windows of arsenals history, arsene decided to go host charity matches in rome, that's right instead of trying hard for the fans that have respected him and pay him one of the highest managerial wages in the world, he decided to do what he pleased as usual, cause he doesn't answer to anyone, nor does he giving a flying fk, gazidis a man i thought was also a crook went and did arsene's job for him and at least got us a striker (which cost us the title in january last season) and arsene foolishly proclaims that «if i was here we wouldn't of signed danny» meaning we wouldn't of had ANY recognised cf till giroud recovered, arsene wenger is a joke of the highest order, lack of respect, lack of shame and lack order, i despise him

Today you get thumbed down for saying what we all seemed to realize last season, if Giroud remains our starting striker we will not win the PL.

something new for sure will happen at the very least we will be getting new players the question being who...... a striker with 30 goals abomyang a central defender a midfielder new maneger who diago simone will do well with atlatico or lazio he is connected to them arsenal needs some one within its ranks some one connected to them But today we seen an ugly encounter were certain players should have had the red i think technology should come in to it and players should be disciplined after The premier league is a physical strong competition to win it you got to be very strong very accurate and very demanding and if you do not have the team to do it you do not win our team didn't live to exceptions of last season so there for changes will have to happen

Obviously the 1st 2 are a little bit tricky to get but the last 3 are easier options of course when talking about proven strikers: Lukkaku would be my bet as he has shown that he can be that 20 + in the EPL or Higuain as he seems to be embracing that role at Napoli and is clearly a 30 + goal scorer.

Well it depends what you mean by «Worked» If you mean staying in top 4, not challenging for 1st or CL, making profits by low spending then YES If you mean challenging for all Trophies, then NO Last summer we only spent # 10 million and didn't get the striker we sorely needed.

Last season after we got Cech early we waited and waited like dummies for a huge signing like striker / dm and nothing (other than Adelaide)

Because Carzola is correct just like Monreal who made the point last week about getting a 20 plus goals striker.

# 20m in today's market is nothing, and so what if we don't get many seasons out him, as some people are suggesting, it's far better than the last four years of the mediocre strikers we've been used to!

Last season we needed a striker and DM Coquelin's injury killed us and Giroud / Theo didn't score enough goals Cazorla's injury hurt us too but Wenger got Xhaka so we don't need DM (even though he can play both B2b / DM)

he brought in a DM last season, snapped up a WC goalie this season and on schedule to get a WC striker next season!

Theo always has a bad stretch of matches and Giroud is too inconsistent, hopefully we'll get in another striker who can get thier boots on the end of Ozil's perfect passing, if not its going to be the same story as last season... or worse

if he had that situation last year he would have did it then too, thats what i'm trying to say, what you are saying is that he had changed from last year, but he is the same as last year, and to sanchez you implied that he is this good because of the moral impact of the new players and i just do nt believe in that, and thats why i wrote about the 6 goal - streak, he did nt need a moral impact its just that we have a better defense so that the strikers get a lot more opportunities to attack a defense and not a packed bus after a lucky goal like last year

the most obvious thing to look out for is the next up and coming 20 + a season goal scorer, thats where we should and could get ahead of the pack because the likes of city and chelsea have got last years model of strikers.

I read that PSG are more willing to sell Ibrahimovic than Cavani, he is a bit old, will be 34 in October, but still a top class striker... It will be very nice if we can get him on loan or for cheap, because he can't last much more longer, maybe 2 - 3 years in top level.
