if we do not buy one
of the top strikers out there, we will finish the league as usual... as simple as that... walcott is not striker, striker must have off all stuff he possesses the first is technique, which he do nt have... He is fast but that is not the major quality striker must have, if you compare him and pippo inzaghi... pippo barely could walk, but he is by miles better striker than walcott and giroud..
Arsenal have also been linked with a number
of top strikers out there, and in recent times, their board have come out and revealed that they will be continuing their philosophy of finding value in the market place.
Not exact matches
Wenger has no tactics, plays his favourite players over better players, gives long term contracts to average and injury prone players, hates strong physical players, plays players
out of position, always looking for excuse like refrees and saying other teams played more in pre season, does nt spend money on players required like if we need
strikers he will buy CAM, waits for other teams to buy
top players and signs average on deadline day, calls accident when we lose, talks cohesion and mental strength when we beat terrible teams and win mickey mouse trophy like Asia cup and community shield.
I don't want to say this, but in the interest
of Arsenal's Ucl success over Barca, I want to say, if the Ucl attacking quality
of Barcelona's 4 players
of, Suarez, Messi, Neymar and Rakitic will play for Barca against Arsenal in both 2 legged ties, the Boss MUST consider the possibility
of upgrading the Arsenal's 2 CBs & DM position with 2 or 3
top quality new additions
of a CB, DM and a
striker to face Barca and knock them
out of this round
of 8 fixtures.
Its not suddenly goig to hit him over the head and all
of a sudden he is a
top class
striker, they have literrally got to train the winger
out of him.
either way I seriously suspect we will be linked with a large number
of players and the only one we will see in an Arsenal shirt come august will be Granit We nger has NOT changed in anyway and has already stated that Giroud will lead the line next season which rules
out Lewondowski, Aubamayang, Higauin and any real
top signings and IF France win the euro (wich will be no real indication
of anything much) Wenger will sing Giroud priases to the heavens and state that we have the
top striker in europe.
At least if Wenger does splash the cash on the fabled «
top striker» then at least that will stave off the WengerOut protests until at least January when we drop
out of the title race!
On
top of that, Wenger knew Welbeck was going to miss the majority
of the season with injury, so we were already one player down, and amazingly, we actually only have one
out - and -
out striker in Giroud.
So what would be the chances
of Arsene not only buying a
top striker, but also forking
out for a Giroud replacement.
Giroud plays week in week
out and gets a lot
of flack as he's gone 8 games without a goal, yet theo who can be totally anonymous in games, then gets a little fortunate with every shot going in and scores a hat trick is suddenly a
top quality
striker?
The closest Arsenal will come to a
top striker is Wenger going to Mbappe's house when Mbappe is
out of contract at Monaco.
I even thought
top clubs were in for him.Some three or 2 seasons back many here were debating why he should be our main
striker.As soon as you mention any other
strikers name people would come
out with stats and many things defending him.Even Wenger has defended him blindly in the past.People say Wenger's stubborn yeah.But don't we know that there's a reason why everything happens?Honestly speaking he's the reason why Arsene Wenger has failed to sign a
top notch
striker because he still believes in him.The funny thing is we signed Welbeck at that time who to me did nothing before to be the main man here.People keep saying Welbeck is hardworking and that he works his socks off.But the question is was that our reason for signing him.Welbeck being signed to challenge Giroud tells me a lot about Giroud's quality.Even Walcott (no offence to him) who has zero CF qualities was even chosen over him for a string
of games and all in all I think he did well but has too many defeciencies for that role.We've compromised as a club and it'll come back to bite us.

Just analyze Wenger's statement today, «I didn't come
out against Benzema», its not the same as saying that I did not show or I don't have any interest in Benzema, and to
top it off when ask about ruling
out any future purchases (this within the context
of an additional
striker) Arsene pointed
out what he currently has at his disposal and think they are sufficient, while adding that if an opportunity to strengthen presents itself, he would not be adverse to pursue it; this seems a bit contradictory and points to someone who is being a bit evasive.
Mistamonn most
of the time his playing players
out of position is because we don't have the necessary depth
of players for each position specially on the left, the team is always
out of balance he rely needs to buy W / C if not
top players in key positions, last year i was commenting that we needed a
striker before a class DM but i was so wrong, we first need the best DM that money can buy no mater how much then and only then we can look for another class DM and a couple
of descent defenders.
The rumour mill will undoubtedly throw
out a whole host
of names that Arsenal could sign during the summer (Zlatan Ibrahimovic being one that stands
out), but while Wenger's eye for a bargain may have deserted him, most people would agree that our chances
of success next season would be significant improved by the arrival
of a
top quality centre - back, holding midfielder and proven goal - scoring
striker.
Its NOT just Giroud its the whole strike force that are absolutly rubbish, I mean yes Giroud misses far more than he scores and that is NOT the mark
of top notch
striker, but Wellbeck is not the finished article and to my mind shows no signs
of becoming so, He seems to suffer from this innate lack
of courage, a lot like Wallcott does, in laymans terms they sh!t
out when it comes to the crunch, Giroud is just not good enough to be the
striker we really need on the end
of Ozil's assists.
50 - 70 mil
striker might win you crucial games in EPL and CL... If we got that one we won't be knocked
out every time from 16 - round
of the CL, we might have taken the chances that we had against Utd and Chelsea... With this type
of thinking we lost our title the season before when we were
top of the league and I genuinely believe we lost that to City because we did not add
striker as a main reason...
Spoiler Alert people, we are not getting anyone in the front
striker position OTHER than what we already have, there was a story in the star yestrday about the 250 million wenger is looking to spend on the likes
of Marco Ruess ect ect and I really can not believe that after all these years the Prof will change his ways and spend all that money and evern if he was going to he needs to pull his finger
out as all the
top players are being strongly linked with other clubs, meanwhile we wait for the brat Vardy to make up his mind when we know he is highly unlikely to come to us another summer
of dissapointment for us as wenger has already stated that Giroud will lead the line next season.
Unsurprisingly our great French
striker Olivier Giroud yet again comes
out on
top with a cost
of only (lol) # 275,000 per goal, while Walcott is three times that price at # 726,000.
But it is also true only 2
out of 10

lets all thank arsene for finally doing the right thing only time will tell but have we finally signed the DM we need STRONG MINDED NO HOLD BAR MIDFIELDER WE HAVE ALL CRAVED, but lets take it back we all know it will take 2 or 3 more like minded players to make us great again, he has tricked us all buy buying one superstar in the last 3 windows ALEXIS, OZIL and CHEC great players but can't do it all on their own, spending huge amount
of money and saying we can buy the best players, on the surface this looks great we are buying
top top players big prices but instead
of spending his usual 50 mill on 2, 3, 4, 0r 5 players he has pulled the wool over are eyes with 1 superstar thinking the fans are that dumb enough to believe it, infact he has never spent his budget only balanced on sales too purchases, i love arsenal but this summer i hope for more he needs to do that consistently through
out the team spend the same amount on the team stop balancing the american owners, grow a pair say yes we will buy a
top defender and a world class
striker, stan we love arsenal please be one
of us do whats needed then you will fell proud as we are and we will adore you for it.

Our team is
out of balance in a major way, too heavy on midfield players who like the ball on their foot and dribble in the middle

While some will point to bad luck, as it is those pesky away goals that look like costing us

we did nt force midfielders to adapt
out wide we just played with a different tactic and formation than the most simple tactic
of one
striker and two wingers, if that was the only right formation then there wouldnt be so much different formations, you guys always talk as if the 4 -3-3 is a rule and wenger absolutely has to play a winger in the right slot
of the 3 up
top, tactics arent and shouldnt be that simple, it isnt a rule that one has to play two wingers..

striker 5) Rotations, so we don't wear our team down.

im not Theos biggest fan but the way hes being treated right now i wouldn't be surprised if he left.Against Hull, Wenger played a central midfielder Ramsey on the wing insted
of Walcott, then when he brought Ramsey off he brought on another central midfielder Wiltshere, he only brought on Walcott lfor Giroud.If your Walcott what would you be thinking?Those
of us who understand the way we play with 1 up
top kow that Theo will never be our regular
striker because he doesn't have the necessary skills.His only real postion is on the right either as an inside right or an
out an
out winger.The fact he doesn't track back alot may be reason why Wenger does nt start him, but even so he must be fi.
He's as versatile as forwards come and can play in numerous roles within the final third like: the main
striker, supporting
striker, centre forward, attacking midfielder or inverted winger — but you get the best
out of him when he plays as the main man up
top.
I have been reading comments
of fans on here, especially those who have chosen to appreciate the average in ability that a
striker like giroud possess, my question for ya all is, when did arsenal become a team so low on profile to sing praise
of a
striker who no one can rank among the
top 3
striker in the league, I have seen an arsenal team with a striking force with players like, anelka, Wright, Henry, v persie, no one can rank giroud or whatever his name is in the category
of my mentioned
strikers.we all have got to face it, giroud is not good enough to be leading the attack
of a team dreaming
of winning the league, and Henry is right saying arsenal can't win the league with giroud as our
striker,,, check this
out, man u won league titles with
strikers like Rooney, van nisteroy, v persie, man city won with aguero, Chelsea with drogba and now Costa, giroud stand no chance against any
of those.let's stop appreciating mediocrity, wenger should get us a good
striker as giroud is damn too average for arsenal
Nothing like one underachiever blowing smoke up the ass
of another... we know that Ozil has some incredible technical gifts, but to be considered the best you have to bring more than just assists to the table... for me, a
top player has to possess a more well - rounded game, which doesn't mean they need to be a beast on both ends
of the pitch, but they must have the ability to take their game to another level when it matters most... although he amassed some record - like stats early on, it set the bar too high, so when people expected him to duplicate those numbers each year the pressure seemed to get the best
of our soft - spoken star... obviously that's not an excuse for what has happened in the meantime, but it's important to make note
of a few things: (1) his best year was a transition year for many
of the traditionally dominant teams in the EPL, so that clearly made the numbers appear better than they actually were and (2) Wenger's system, or lack thereof, didn't do him any favours; by playing him
out of position and by not acquiring world - class
striker and / or right - side forward that would best fit an Ozil - centered offensive scheme certainly hurt his chances to repeat his earlier peformances, (3) the loss
of Cazorla, who took a lot
of pressure off Ozil in the midfield and was highly efficient when it came to getting him the ball in space, negatively impacted his effectiveness and (4) he likewise missed a good chunk
of games and frankly never looked himself when he eventually returned to the field... overall the Ozil experiment has had mixed reviews and rightfully so, but I do have some empathy for the man because he has always carried himself the same way, whether for Real or the German National team, yet he has only suffered any lengthy down periods with Arsenal... to me that goes directly to this club's inability to surround him with the necessary players to succeed, especially for someone who is a pass first type
of player; as such, this simply highlights our club's ineffective and antiquated transfer policies... frankly I'm disappointed in both Ozil and our management team for not stepping up when it counted because they had a chance to do something special, but they didn't have it in them... there is no one that better exemplifies our recent history than Ozil, brief moments
of greatness undercut by long periods
of disappointing play, only made worse by his mopey posturing like a younger slightly less awkward Wenger... what a terribly waste
whatever you think
of ramsey... and in my books he is a decent b2b but certainly not
top class... he is not going to control the area between edge
of box and centre line which is what all great DMs do... nor has coquelin proved that to me... he is a guttusso type player and has improved massively in that role... not convinced it is what will take us to challenging for titles however which is why a cavalho type DM is a needed addition especially as arteta and flamini are obviously not up to the task... but have always said that wengers job is to get best
out of ozil santi and wilshere who are the real creative world class strengths
of this squad... they need protection behind them and options in front... at moment the real worry is that wenger will continue to use mertesakher at CB and fail to bring in quality
striker... so the song remains the same... without quality DM and attacking option we will be trying to retain 3rd place and reach qf
