At 29 - years old this could well be
the last chance for the striker to get a big move while at the peak of his powers and I feel that the biggest beneficiaries of this Arsenal transfer news could be Roy Hodgson and England.
Not exact matches
Not only is Sanchez a big boost
for our
chances of success today, it tells Gooners around the world that our star
striker is going nowhere during the
last few days of the current transfer window.
Morale is down, toxicity in the stands is spreading to the dressing room, pay attention to Ozil and Sanchez and even Bellerins body language, the playing
for a lost cause... If I'm Ozil there is no way I'm putting in a similar level of performance I did
last season if the «main
striker» goes missing
for 14 games despite creating 141
chances and breaking the premier league record
Sanchez is our
striker yet no one has created a
chance for him in the
last two games.
And this match could be one of the
last chances for Welbeck, if he wants to keep playing as Arsenal's main
striker.
It would have been a big help to Arsenal and our
chances of winning the Premier League this season if Leicester City had managed to beat Chelsea or at least stop the league leaders from adding another three points to their total, especially after the setback of a defeat
last week and the loss of their main
striker Diego Costa this weekend, but the fragile Foxes could not even hold out
for seven minutes.
I thought people here were debating about two or three seasons back why he should be our top striker.When I thought the Monaco match was the icing on the cake to show how average he was it seems just like Wenger we» will never learn our lesson.Now people our okay with him being a super sub which is debatable.Giroud was a super sub in games
last season because he wasn't played when he was supposed to.He's not your ideal super sub because he very hardly creates but rather requires people to create
for him.Most of the time super subs are the one's who tend to create the
chances and open up spaces in the opposition defence.West ham are ready to pay and hence we should demand more from them.We can then use the money from his sale on far better players.Given the same seasons, time and
chances a lot of average
strikers can do better than what he did.This is because Arsenal create a lot of
chances and it just needs someone who can finish.Goodbye!.
It has been said that our Fench
striker Olivier Giroud has lacked a bit of confidence in some games, and we all have vivid memories of the Arsenal hitman missing a hat - trick of easy
chances against Monaco
last season, but he made up
for it n spades
last night as he finally scored his very first hat - trick
for the Gunners.
Well im not in a wonderland he has his failings as we all do and great teams find a way to win good teams sit where we are 6 -5-4 but thats besides the point and it would be nice if your aunty had bolocks cause then we d be second but ive watched the games were an offensive team most the time although were terrible in the pissing rain but
for the most part the game plans have worked weve created
chances quality scoring
chances one after the other problem is
for me the finishing unless we sit back with 9 man behind the ball or ten when you push forward you will give up a goal if you lousy forwards fail to finish the set ups have been there this year but our
strikers have failed to kill the games if we create quality
chances and grab leads in the first 60 minutes like we have
for the most part and in those games those games should of been killed even if we give a goal or two alongside the strategy but we failed to hit multiple should be goals we tried laca we'll see abou auba although hes a bit lazy so far but we'll see but we've lacked that quality in front goal a player the
chances have been there im looking at the failure of the
strikers and maybe that is his fault but monreal has scored as many goals recently as our
strikers and thats sad our defenders or a midfielder will score and our stikers cant tally one in th first 60 mins of a game alongside them then were tired
for last 40 give them hope there still only down one and we rue our missed
chances while they push thats where iv been frustrated with this season not the tactics but the finishing
A big reason
for the Brazilian
striker being so cheap is that his current contract is due to run out in January and so this is the
last chance for his club to recoup and transfer fee
for him.
unless we are planning to sell jack, Ramsey, Carzola, or even coquelin i don't get these transfer... who do we play where??? We had no problem in midfield
last season (in my opinion) but if we are doing these just
for the numbers then am ok with it... Our real problem is the No. 9 position... Guys theres a reason
strikers cost and are paid higher than other players... A
striker who scores at - least a goal in three good
chances created is exactly what we need
It seemed as if we were going to struggle with taking our
chances once again, an issue that has been present at Arsenal
for the
last few years due to a lack of an out and out
striker.
I have to assume that the manager is expecting either Chuba Akpom to step up or
for Serge Gnabry to return to fitness and match sharpness, but surely this would have been a great time to give our young Costa Rican
striker the
chances he has been crying out
for since he returned to his parent club after impressing in the World Cup finals in Brazil
last summer.
To be fair it he has brought this on himself...
for years we have said it in a calm manner buy and build...
last 2 years we have got 3 quality game changers (Sanchez, Ozil, Cech) but we needed more... We have had
chances to sign good young players
for a good price (Dybala # 25 million... Kondogbia # 23 million) he has let them slip through his hands... Summer we asked
for a
striker and keeper and DM, he only got a keeper..
Actually that was very wrong in taking out Lacazette because everyone and their dog knows that the
last 15 minutes of the game players are so tired and there is the
chance for a lethal
striker like Laczette to finish off the game.
He was drafted in
last summer to provide backup
for Harry Kane, and understood that he would receive limited
chances in the first team with the prolific nature of first choice
striker Kane.
The Belgian
striker scored 15 league goals
for Crystal Palace
last season which would significantly boost Stoke's
chances of getting back in the top half
for next season.
In the
last game against Stoke City, I say it is very important
for the
striker to have the
chances to score, no?
United had one
last great opening to claim all three points right at the death after substitute Cameron Borthwick - Jackson set up Rooney at the far post, only
for the
striker to miss the target and the
chance to relieve the pressure on his under - fire boss, who insisted after that whistle that he would not resign.
Maksim you are 100 % percent right about Dan Petrescu's faith in youngsters.In just a few months he gave
chances to Ivan Solovyov, Pavel Solomatin and Vladimir Sobolev to play in the first team.As
for Mogilevets i think he will become and excellent player but not at Zenit.He needs to move elsewhere (and not on loan) to play first team football like Ionov did a few years ago.In my opoinion Zenit needs a
striker (if they sell Hulk to AS Monaco) to score goals.Kerzhakov is not at his best, Bukharov has forgotten when was the
last time he score and Dordevic is not gonna get a chance.I understand that midfielders of Zenit are all capable of scoring goals like Shirokov, Danny, Witsel, Bystrov and Fayzulin but thats
striker's job and Zenit may lose a player on the filed.And something else, i was so impressed with Yuri Lodigin's performance against Krasnodar and maybe Zenit found a great replacement
for Malafeev.
It was not a case of
strikers not taking
chances for Meyer
last season, he created 45
chances, much less than Eriksen.
Sky Sports» Kaveh Solhekol also reported that West Ham rejected the
chance to sign the French
striker for as little as # 6 million
