We need better though but I'm in full 100 % support
of the purchase
of Shkrodan Mustafi and Lucas Perez.Mustafi can help Koscielny now.I've been saying it here time and time again that it's not a world clsss striker we have needed but a clinical finisher which we have lacked for several seasons and counting.Hopefully this guy puts Giroud where he belongs which is on the bench.Though a world class striker is good what we have lacked is someone who puts the
game to bed in clinical fashion but Arsene Wenger has listened to many people to the extent that if he can't get a world class striker then he can get anyone.If Arsenal had a clinical finisher for some five seasons or so we coulda won the EPL then.Giroud has cost us matches and will continue to cost us matches.Giroud is half decent as someone said here the
last time.I expect Perez to be much better if he can take on his man and be clinical in front
of goal.

I believe tgere are 3 titke contenders this year Leicester, city and arsenal About Leicester they are doing great but there football depends on counter attacking and few quick passes to reach the ball to mahrez or vardy i don't think they can impress anybody if they faced teams that park the bus like what the teams do with arsenal and also any injury for mahrez or vardy will ruin there season so i don't consider them a real challenge and in an open
game we got the best out
of them and beat them with 5
goals to 2 so calm down gooners About city they had very impressing start for the season then they were vety baf winning most
games by pure luck or
last minute
goals and they could be beaten easily Arsenal are the best team form we controled most
of the
games and the losses and draws were by bad referee decisions or bad luck and the 4 points margain with city could have been easily 10 or 12
