especially the way he left, the things he said after leaving and his agonizing celebrations... I don't see this happening at all... but we can
get a striker with his qualities or even better if only we have the ambition to do so!
I seriously doubt he will
get a striker with Giroud, Walcott, Sanchez, and Welbeck in the squad.
and no matter he much most of us buttress it, it will hurt if he rejects us cuz
getting a striker with lower risks is going to b hard
From a business perspective we'd be
getting a striker with amazing potential and an on the brink of world - class player.
Not exact matches
Wenger had some negative experience
with the fans last year and i think he realise that there is a lot of hate festering that will come out if he does not
get a
striker, also he as said we needed replacement for Welbeck, he as already done the vardy bid and i expext him to try for another
surely the back up point is that we have never come close
with him as
striker... but do nt let such a small point
get in the way of sucking up to the frenchman
So the title does not mean that Wenger is pandering to the whims of our Chile international
striker, but exactly the opposite, as The Mirror is reporting that the boss is
getting tough
with the former Barcelona star this season.
When we
got Sanchez, Debuchy, chambers and Ospina I had so much optimism but
with the combination of us not
getting a
striker / CDM and the aggression of Chelsea (
getting Fabregas, Costa, Remy) goals galore, I'm losing my optimism
Giroud misses more than he hits, Walcott has NEVER delivered his expected talent, Welbeck will NEVER be the
striker to score 20 goals a season Coqellin will NOT go a whole season injury or suspension free, Sanchez and Ozil WILL have down period during the season, all teams have these problems to a greater or lesser degree but most of the top teams will address these problems and players either inprove or are sold and replaced
with better or at least more consistant players, NOT Wenger he keeps doing the same thing over and over
with the same players and he expects a different result but
gets the same outvome time and time again, yet its ALWAYS someone else's fault be it the Ref or the linesman or the opposition or bad luck or whatever and whoever and its NEVER the fact that HE has done nothing to change the situation and LOOKS LIKELY to not change it next time around.
The reason that people
get worried about Per is that he can't run after Sturridge, or Aguero, or any one fast, but I'll tell you this; If your sweeper at any club whatsoever ends up chasing
strikers so many times that it becomes notable, then there is something wrong
with your defence.
Arsenal made very hard work of the first half, and
with Palace playing it very tight at the back it was looking difficult to
get the ball to lone
striker Yaya Sanogo.
As for Giroud I hope what I'm hearing is not true.You
get the feeling that once Lacazette starts scoring he just won't like it.He's also another overrated player who's also hear because of Wenger's kindness.Apart from the fact that he's good
with his head I don't see the positives of keeping here and even Welbeck.We need players who can push Lacazette to perform and these are just not the players.They are more of rotation players.Do you think if Welbeck and Giroud were at top form they can challenge Laca at his best?I always laugh at our
strikers though.On one hand, one doesn't fit our style of play but at least he can finish.On the other hand, the one who fits our style of play can't even score a goal.I can't believe we are joking
with such a crucial role.I'm sick and tired of seeing average
strikers in the club.It's been painful watching the likes of Bendtner and Chamakh already.Now I have to cope
with this.
That's why Walcott is asked to play as a hold up
striker, Ox is supposed to play off the shoulder of defenders, Podolski had to cover for Gibbs and rarely
get in the box, Arteta had to cover the counter attack and pass sideways, and Gabriel has to be a slow, awkward white guy
with great positioning.
I expect Giroud to
get a rest and Welbeck to replace him at centre forward, as the Frenchman could do
with a rest and the England
striker could do
with the game time, especially after doing so well against his former club in the last round.
Spurs will have a great chance of finishing ahead of us by
getting Janssen Janssen is a decent
striker and the duo of Janssen and Kane is better than the duo of Theo and Giroud IMO Spurs also have two Top CB
with Vertonghen and Alderwireld.
If we had
got a Top
striker, Top DM, another Top LW, our Arsenal would be a Trident Submarine
with loads of Trident nuclear missiles
A chelsea fan down here even said Arsenal are currently in spot to clinch the EPL, that we're complete in defence and midfield, said
with the way our players are hungry that nobody would be a threat to us but all we need to pull the trigger is
get a WC
striker.
We needed to sign a top
striker (we
got a decent one
with potential), a quality defender (should have kept Vermaelen if we have only 6) and top CDM
We
get scored in the same way
with marcelo, modric and kroos chasing
strikers towards goal while walking and Varane and Nacho swarmed
with opposition shirts.
Ozil was supposed to break Henry's record and create his own record this season... but thanks to Wenger and his son Giroud, alongside his adopted son Walcott, Ozil can kiss that record goodbye... and this is what we deserve when you try to buy a World class
striker for # 40.1 million pounds... live
with the regrets... i don't care if we
get Messi, Neymar and Suarez now, Wenger should just leave
Them not having a
striker only removes that long ball hold up play to
get out of tough situations but we would be ok
with that most of the time.
Same problems from last season Which are intensity and tempo being to slow and the balance of the team looked completely wrong
with a fake LW 3 cm's and a
striker who can't even control the ball and
get involved.
but i think we are using giroud as a scapegoat for our shortcomings, its not like we defend too well either.we might
get a wc
striker but how many points will he be worth if we let in cheap goals?i know we
got a good gk to help
with that, but he alone cant do much..
The thing about our league compared to theirs is how their
strikers are brimming
with confidence from the
get go, whilst we went into match
with a crisis of confidence in front of goal.
Lets
get a top
striker, a young sound quick defender like Varane to replace Per (I «m always filled
with trepidation whenever i see him struggling back to make an interception) and a creative attacking midfielder like Mkhytarian.
If Arsenal can
get their hands on a dangerous
striker with goals on him we can assume Arsenal can win against teams who come to sit at the emirates.
Walcott has been doing well out wide so far this season, and is likely to be given the nod to play off the
striker alongside Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil,
with the former
getting his preferred role back after being forced to play as a makeshift
striker in the previous two matches, as Giroud will no doubt be taking his slot back.
I'm really curious who is going to replace Giroud — Wenger was never going to
get a
striker this window but
with his main man out something must be done and done quick.
I don't
get why people are thumbing me down, the best
strikers won't be satisfied
with one goal, they won't even be satisfied
with a hat trick, they keep demanding for the ball and keep moving forward.
And of all the bunch of
strikers we
got at the moment, dhat guy seems to be the onLy one
with a
striker's instinct...... (Tho he's still an unfinished product and isn't even world class yet)... the rest of em are just models
With around 50 - 60M left it is not easy to

Although they later fixed their relationship, things didn't

striker....
I just pray we
get the
strikers we need bcos they have been scarce since last season that's why ManU had to gamble
with Martial...
Hope we
get a top class
striker like benzema vto go
with that
i
get where you are going at but not a lot of the top teams were in the need of a top
striker the ones who were already bought a
striker at the start i.e. chelsea and man u and man city (nolito) and tottenham, of course there should have been other top clubs in search of a
striker but i think it shouldn't be a knock - down that we were the only one who triggered the clause but i agree
with all the other things you said the its absurd to compare him
with griez and vardy and we have to be patient
with him
Pedro is a good player to have, its a good idea to
get him and move Theo to cf. I would actually settle
with Pedro and no
striker.
We can
get let's say rues and keep giroud as our main
striker with welbeck as second choice.
What about vincent janssen He has scored 14 goals in his last 11 games and made 3 assists He is a complete
striker he can hold up the ball amd he can run behind defenders even he is not very fast he also play
with his two legs and give very nice passes He is only 21 My ideal world will be if we
got a super
striker like zlatan and
get this guy for the next years I'm sure he will be a beast in the coming years
If you leave it
with these AKBs, we don't much!!!! as a matter fact we don't need
striker, we don't need CB, or maybe we don't need a team!!!! as long as we have a manager
getting paid 8 Mil, and an owner, who likes to go to bank everyday, we don't anybody.
Reading the thread on this article and I noticed a lot of people naming
strikers we could have
gotten in past transfer windows that have gone to other club and failed, Balotelli, Falcao, Martinez, Boney etc are recurring names in all the comments, and am sat here thinking because they failed in thee clubs does not necessarily mean they would have failed if we had pulled out our fingers and hot them back then, Balotelli aside I strongly believe all of these players could have made a difference playing infront of our midfield and given the kind of attention and care Wenger gives Giroud and Walcott, adapting our play to suit them and giving them chances after chances even when its blatantly obvious they are average players so please lets not keep using that as an excuse for Wenger's ultra careful attitude in the transfer market, they could have failed
with us, or they could have been massive for us, all speculations.
But seeing our current
strikers got written off so easily by fan just piss me off Giroud is not there
with Aguero, Rooney, Costa — But I take him over Dzeko, Remy, Falcao (at MU last season) Walcott may or may not be the answer, we don't know yet, the last few games look very promising — writing him off as not be able to play as Center Forward or can not hit the 20 + goals per season now is premature.
Things can only
get worse on Thursday when Arsenal travel to Milan
with only Danny Welbeck as
striker, and now Josh Kroenke has spoken publicly about the need for Arsenal to be honest about the situation.
I still wonder why some won't just forget about Giroud n instead keep putting him in their potential line up even if it means starting
with just 3 defenders... FFS Giroud should join Walcott out n we
get another
striker along
with Vardy.
So will Arsenal have to
get by this season
with the
strikers we already have and the England forward Danny Welbeck?
I mean look at carzola, he says outright without hiding that we need a
striker... about finishing strongly, we did that last season and the season after and the other after after a first leg screw - up... maybe ramsey loves his friends in the dressing room but saying that we need a few quality wouldn't have hurt anyone... we weren't able to beat the chelsea that hez talking about at home even with a full squad so i don't get his reference plus other teams are strengthening strongly and will only get better... man utd with a mediocre team played us like we were some kids FH at OT and we had no injuries...

and if he fails he
gets to compete
with Pedro who he vacated his rw position to because of the
striker issue
his goal scoring record speaks for it self but would be better if we
got him for cheaper price like closer to # 20 million, could be bargain for 2 - 3 years of shed - load of goals probably the most flamboyant of all the
strikers we could be approaching this summer, has
got a right nose for the back of the net and scores from every angle under the sun
with both feet, and he would be a great stopgap until akpom comes good in 2 years time.
The first half was pretty cagey for a while
with a real battle in midfield and you could say that Hull should have been ahead after a great cross from the left found Aluko but the
striker got his free header all wrong and Mertesacker cleared.
