Arsenal are also in great
need of a new striker as they look to bring in a player to fill in for the injured Olivier Giroud, with little in the way of backup for the Frenchman at the Emirates Stadium as he faces as much as four months out.
United don't exactly look in desperate
need of a new striker, but could perhaps do with an upgrade on Romelu Lukaku, who has largely failed to live up to expectations since his summer move from Everton.
Arsenal looked in
need of a new striker during their loss to West Ham on the opening weekend of the season.
The out of work manager claimed that we are in
need of a new striker and a central defender, and named Romelu Lukaku as somebody who should be strongly considered.
Just one season at Chelsea and Diego Costa is being linked with a bizarre return to Spain with Real Madrid, who aren't exactly in
need of a new striker given the presence of Karim Benzema and the suggestion that Rafael Benitez could play Cristiano Ronaldo up front next season.
Because we are in
need of a new striker does not mean we have to shift the blame to an individual who has been trying is best, (he is not the speedy built forward that we keep crying for) but we have the speedy outlets around him.
You can still get odds on United rekindling their interest in Morata, although Chelsea remain favourites for the player — and they have spoken with Real about a possible deal, as they are in
need of a new striker — having missed out on top target Lukaku.
Not exact matches
But in order to set a
new Premier League record
of 21 in one season, the attacking midfielder
needs another four and if our
strikers and other outfield players continue to spurn chances the way we have been seeing then he might just fall short.
Nothing you could ever do to Giroud would ever make him come good just nothing.Its not a formation set up that gets a player to dribble, score, be world class, be dependable, wow the crowd and the like.Its the players» own ability that makes him do that.Once you don't have it ya ain't gat it brother.Read my lips!!!!! Once ya don't have it ya ain't gat it.As simple as ABC.So I expect this to be another de ja vu case and waste
of time if Giroud and Alexis are paired.I'm even shocked it's coming from Henry.He should rather be giving us more reasons why we
need a
new striker and why we would fail if we don't get the
new striker.Forget Giroud's stats for a moment and judge him by how he plays when you are watching him.You would realize that given the same chances at Arsenal
strikers who are not even world class can do better.I want a
new striker even if not world class and to be honest its not necessarily a world class
striker that wins you a league but just increases the chances
of winning it.Peace!!!!
We
need at least five quality players a defender, goalkeeper, a defensive midfielder, a attacking midfielder and a
striker Though winning the f.a cup did take a bit
of pressure
of him only time will tell There got to be a
new structure at the club, and get rid
of the also rans like Lucas Perez, Jenkinson, debuchy and sagono for starters
By the time wenger gets the
striker we
need and possibly CB, the likes
of ozil and sanchez (plus possibly others) will have refused to sign
new contracts and will have been sold.
I rally don't know what is going on with Mr Wenger he let jensen go to spurs and now he is diddling his finger around It looking like «we didn't find the quality
striker we
needed» we have a tough start with
new shrewd managers around by October we could be in the relegation zone God forbid I recommend we voice our concern now rather in the middle
of the competition so not to embarrass our selves in front
of our opponents in the stands
Uhh guessing this is a question from football retards exam night... We have one quality forward (currently off form) two decent
strikers who can deliver in bursts (but probably wouldn't make the bench
of most
of rival top 10 european clubs we aspire to match) and three hugely overrated wing players who should be nowhere near starting in a team aspiring for top honours at home and abroad... Conclusion we
need at least 3
new attacking options in the summer....

Still think we
need a
new striker to convert more
of the chances that Giroud does get, but for me he gets the nod over Walcott every day
of the week.
Yes he could be alot better at finishing, but let's see, maybe we got a
new sturridge... What I am mad on Wenger about is not so much the lack
of a proven
striker to our ranks... No it's that we haven't bought a central defender to cover, but most important, we haven't bought a defensive midfielder, that we
need so much!!? Wenger makes the same mistakes over and over, everybody else can see it, just not him... hmm: / but still lets respect him as a man and judge when we are atleast half way into the season... COYG!!!!
Last week saw Arsenal complete the transfer
of Mohamed Elneny from Basel and today we added a
new contract for our Spanish left back Nacho Monreal and while a lit
of Arsenal fans are hoping for or expecting more from the club, with most
of them hankering for another
striker, Smith is not and he does not think we
need any more players to win the league this season.
We
need a
new striker certainly, I hope Wolfsburg pull through in their interest
of Giroud so we can be rid
of him and his measly 13 goals, I was shocked to see that Jermaine Defoe at relegation threatened Sunderland has 15 goals which is more than Giroud while playing with worse players!
In the middle
of the last season we all
new that we
need a
striker and playmaker and for some reason front office couldn't address that issue (at least for now).
Henry — Arsenal

of u shut ur stupid mouth.
our rivals all have good squads but they are still bringing in stars every season and improve their team, we are virtually 3 signings away from having one
of the best teams in our history, and again they talk about having a good squad, we
need an upgrade in goal, ospina is solid but when someone like cech is available you go for him, we
need a DM to share the duties with lecoq, and we for sure
need a
new world class
striker, and yet we wait and all our targets are heading in different direction.
Yaya Sanogo bags a hattrick in the Emirates cup and all
of a sudden we do not
need a
new striker.
If the recent reports
of Chelsea
striker Diego Costa's impending departure from Stamford Bridge are any indication, Jose Mourinho will
need to have a
new striker all lined up to take his place.
So those
of you out there who have been getting excited, ever since the failed transfer bid for the Leicester City and England
striker Jamie Vardy proved once and for all that the boss was after a
new forward in the summer transfer window,
need to realise that whoever does come to Arsenal will not be coming as a replacement for the big Frenchman but as competition and cover for him.
... the fact is some gunner fans have forgotten that we almost won the league 2 years ago without sanchez nor cech and with the same olivier giroud as our ONLY strike force, and as we know if not for lack
of depth and injuries we would av won the league that year... now we av sanchez and cech plus welbeck, we now av the depth, all we
need is a fit team and we will win the league next season... I believe in this team and frankly, its high time we put all the doubts away and stand with the team and manager with or without a
new striker signing... COYGs!!!
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
A few weeks ago Giroud was crying that we don't
need any
new striker's... With one day left
of the window, he is now saying that Benzema would have been a good signing lol
But, he should have had another 2 before he scored, I think we
need to be patient with Theo, people attack him for not making the correct runs or lacking the instinct
of a
striker, but for this he simply
needs time, games is how he will learn this, I would think he is getting good advice from AW and perhaps our
new U18s Attacking coach The King can give him some tips.
From your point
of view we don't even
need a
new striker.
Haha and a
new stadium as well too, with lots
of car parks, sorry mate our midfield is well loaded barring any major injuries which
of course as we know will most definetely happen, all we
need is a world class
striker (Admin * Cough - article *), centre back, maybe a winger and handle the two other positions which are not that neccesary but could be useful for rotation like the ospina back up position and getting an extra midfielder in Ngolo Kante I love his simplicity and his mobility much much much better upgrade to flamini
mmmh injuries (not news and infact we already are in it), lack
of a proper dm until the
new yr (le coq emergence who desperately
needed a back up), lack
of a lethal
striker (giroud's injury noted though obviously not good enough and the sole reason even wenger himself
needed a
new striker) and finally lack
of depth in key positions (CBs, DM and yes a CF).
We have our CB in Gabriel, I do nt see any
need for
new strikers or wingers, neither right / left backs, we only
need to fill the lack
of a quality backup / contender for the DM - spot.
theres no logical reason why Wenger would want to buy a
striker as far as he see's it we can manage with what we have, He is gagging to turn someone like Sanogo into the
new Tierry Henry and then he can sit back and say «I told you I was the master» its as plain as the nose on your face that Wenger has had no interest in buying a
new striker since we got Welllbeck who we all know is a great tryer but will either never have a long period
of fitness OR will never be the ruthless clinical finisher we really
need.
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
But the manager has always been the same, and seems to be immune to criticism, why?We can talk about how much we
need a
new striker and cdm, but am not sure they will improve our performances because
of how they will be managed.
Spending money to sign Arda Turan will be a waste
of money.To me he's world class but he's not what we
need at the moment.The most important thing we
need in our squad is a
new striker and Turan ain't that.It's just gonna be a waste
of resources.I really hope Arsene Wenger spends the money he has on a better
striker than Lacazette.He might be good but for that amount I think we should be able to get better.
Everyman woman and child knows what should be done here it's a consensus that is rarely seen just amongst the faithful, but in this case is the opinion
of virtually everyone who knows even the remotest scrap
of knowledge about football and this is that Arsenals current squad
need a
new and «golden moment»
striker and also a competent and experienced DM.
1) He will
need time to adapt to this Tough EPL 2) His body physiology may not cope with the rigors
of this League 3) In a season or two, we'd be back in circles in search
of a
new striker when the decline sets
The emergence
of Francis Coquelin has nullified the
need for Arsenal to buy a
new «Beast
of a DM», so this leaves the «World Class»
striker that we have all desired to give some true competition for Olivier Giroud.
There has been much debate on JustArsenal as to whether the Gunners are still in
need of a
new top - class
striker to rival Olivier Giroud next season.
Even if he was a
striker before, he will
need some time to adjust to the
new league and its environs; let alone being a winger for most part
of his time with Barcelona.
Blues boss Guus Hiddink has confirmed that he will be on the lookout for
new strikers during the January transfer market after admitting it's an area
of the squad that
needs boosting.
KM Totally agree with with you regarding finances however on the pitch
newer mind competing with the likes
of Bayern, Barcas and Reals we are having problems with the likes
of Everton, Southamton, we
need a manager with great players behind him like Pep Guardiola we
need world class left / winger we
need world class defensive / midfielder one or two in defence and may be world class
striker but let's see Dany and Sanchez until January, people we have the money,
Seems to me we
need two
new strikers, irrespective
of whether walcott stays or not.
Clearly now and especially now with Danny Welbecks massive injury we ABSOLUTELY
NEED a
new W / C
striker and thats the target that Wenger should be putting ALL
of his energy into ALL summer, AND I DO NT MEAN A LIKE FOR LIKE LUKAKU DEAL EITHER!!!!!!!!
Milan are likely to continue strengthening in the coming weeks as there are still areas
of the squad that
need to be addressed, namely a creative central midfielder and another
striker to take some
of the pressure off Silva next season, but this is undoubtedly turning out to be a very impressive summer transfer window, the first window under
new owner Yonghong Li's stewardship.
We can not be sure but I strongly suspect that the
striker would not be keen to fight for a place at Man City with Aguero or with Kane at Tottenham either so can you think
of a Premier League club heading for a Champions League place that
needs a
new first choice centre forward?
We don't
Need Stirling and frankly I would rather that money be spend on a world class striker NOT an upstart young kid who still has to learn his trade... we have Walcott, however on the subject of Walcott I just wish he'd stop being overtly greedy and sign the contract so that the transfer team can concentrate on brining in the New players we need NO wasting weeks of negotiation on a player who should be happy o play for the club with the wages he

I will happily bet my house that Wenger will state that Iwobi is the next Tierry Henry so no
striker is
needed and that Wilshire being an injury recovery is like a
new signing (A la Diaby) there wont be any
new signings
of note and they wont care if we as fans do our bollocks or not cos they know theres NOTHING we can do
We
need the
new striker, not because Giroud is not good, he is, but is he the
striker that will win us that kind
of match?
