on a striker so Pedro would be a great move
Not exact matches

striker, or Juventus will go back with an offer big enough to persuade Napoli to cash in while there are still two years left
on the contract of the in form Argentina international.
The French
striker has been limited to the bench
so far this term, but has severely impressed when being brought
on, although I'm sure there are still plenty of Gunners who would like to see Olivier replaced or bettered in the coming windows.
and thats it really we sold Van Persie and never really spent the money we earned
on a new
striker and the likes of sanchez are rare
so who knows but I would bet we would sell him if City or bayern were offering serious money.
But there are many devastating
strikers around the world who are also weak
on defense and they are NEVER faulted for it
so long as they score.]
Forget the rest, just look at their
striker record, overpaid
on nearly everyone, most under performed in return and some were bought but couldn't be accommodated
so sold
on, anyone for Jo (# 18M), Robinho (# 32M), Santa Cruz (# 19M), Adebayor (# 25M), Balotelli (# 25M), Negredo (# 21M), Jovetic (# 26M), Navas (# 23M).
The Gunners have been actively pursuing a
striker to add to their squad this summer, but have
so far fallen flat
on their face, and are now looking at their options.
As per BBC Sport, Man Utd splashed out # 75m

so far this season.
Bruce is still in the market for a
striker, however, after he was left frustrated by Charlie Austin's failed medical

so far the former Wigan and Sunderland boss has no complaints over what he's been able to do
so far.
Wenger don't even try because people like you are giving him ideas of «what if he flops», then we will never ever going to buy proven
strikers and
so on just to avoid getting disappointed if they flop.
Each year we cant spend 70M
on new
strikers,
so if he is not willing for a top dog, get 2 from here and make them compete!!!
By the time Wenger gets his Finger out to sign a
Striker all the Top
Strikers will have been signed by Man Utd, Man City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Spurs and
so on.
This team is
so close to challenging to major honours, but we lack a world class
striker to ease the burden
on Giroud and a quality partner for Koscielny.
I
so hope I am 200 % wrong but to me it seems silly to think Wenger will spend 50 million or more
on a
striker.
well due to negligence
on our part lyon like other clubs know were desperate for a
striker -
so true values means feck all
So unless we can somehow get a significant improvement
on these current Gunners, do we really need a
striker signing this month?
And Wenger said again that Walcott is a
striker so that means Giroud and Walcott share that role, Sanchez
on RW and Iwobi
on the left..
There is
so much talk about getting wingers and
strikers that we are all forgetting our stats from last season.It was not scoring goals which was the problem (thanks to Alexis whom people have already started demonising for being ambitious) but its conceding goals which is our problem.
So shouldn't the club be more focussed
on getting a CDM and a CB.
So, no
striker because your f*cking ass was to lazy to get busy
on the market... Basically too lazy to do your job again (for # 8millions / year you deluded twat!!).
Yeah yeah yeah It's a priority to get a new
striker in of course it is PROVIDING that he cost less that a fiver, is world class, French and is young enough to make a profit
on when we resell him
So not really a priority at all!!!!!! The priority here is the same as it's always been and that NOT spending any money (where is the BT sports money we have got?)
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
Paul35mm u hav said it all wenger is ruining this club with sentiment and personal favorites, personally i feel
so bad for podolski,
on paper and
on goal ratio the best
striker at arsenal atm, then u play sanogo and bench poldi dats crazy and stupid from wenger... bcos of sentiments he refused to resign fabregas and song for that he should have been sacked cause there is NO excuse not to sign them also when he sign kim kalstrom injured that was an insult to arsenal fans... wenger should grow up or leave
However, neither player is a like - for - like replacement for Sanchez,
so it could be that Arsenal are now looking at Bale to fulfil that role, as the Welshman can comfortably fill in
on either flank or behind the main
striker.
Arsenal have spent a large part of the summer
so far reportedly
on the lookout for a new
striker to rival or even replace Olivier Giroud.
So Walcott will partner the in form Spurs
striker Harry Kane in front of a midfield diamond and that should offer him a chance to show his pace, movement and finishing
on the big stage.
He is still good, but we need another
striker that can also get 20, 25 goals in the league,
so that Giroud isn't put
on pressure.
Personally, in addition to a WC
striker, I would get Reus who can play
on both wings AND attacking Midfielder (We always have injuries
so he will always play unless injured)
Get real in his almost 5 years at Arsenal his scored less than 15 goals in all his games played.He is great
on the wings and should stay there, this converting a winger in2 a
striker talk is ridiculous, the
striker we are looking for belongs to another team,
so let's just go out and buy him, SIMPLE!!!!!! But yes the goal Ox scored against Chivas was pure class.
They scraped through the first round only to be knocked out by Romanian minnows Astra
on Thursday, losing their key
striker Enner Valencia while doing
so.
Aubemeyang is no Thierry but he is a damn fine player and goalscorer, he suits our play as - well maybe more
so than any other
striker on the market.
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.
we don't need any more midfielders we have enough what with Santi Cazorla, Jack Wilshere coming back and what with Alex Iwobi playing the way he is and its time Theo Walcott started playing
on the right wing like he use to,
so it remains us to concentrate
on a WC
striker and may be an understudy to Laurent Koscielny / Per Mertesacker
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!!!!
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.
The difference between a target centre forward and a
striker is that «A target man waits for the ball to be put at his foot or his head for him to score and most times a centre forward holds on to the ball with his back to goal waiting for runners to run in to receive a pass from him so he can position or free himself to score but a STRIKER is a player who runs to meet th

STRIKER is a player who runs to meet the ball.
Sell him to Munich in the summer and buy the
striker we need,
on a positive note, well done Danny welbeck, have to admit I don't rate him but he was great last night really impressed me, maybe he can develop to b much better than I thought, hope
so, also Montreal deserves real credit for his huge improvement from last season.
With their Swedish centre forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic injured it is likely to be the young English
striker leading the line at Old Trafford
on Saturday,
so is he the main danger man and does Wenger need to take special care to stop him hurting our title challenge once more?
Then after the bid
on Vardy and after buying Xhaka I realized a top
striker is not Wenger's priority
so I started to hope for a lesser
striker but at least one that could give me hope (Morata, Hernandez etc) of not having to see Giroud start every week.
Nothing, but yea we need a classy
striker so Giroud will get his ass up and never bow down, i do nt think we need a
striker on the claim that we ain't going places with Giroud.
So on one hand you would prefer a striker that only has 2 seasons in him and is possibly just a one season wonder, and on the other hand you would prefer a striker who scores less than Giroud and hasn't shown any sign of full filling his so called «potential» people keep talking abou

Everyone keeps
on with this buy a
striker malarchy but the quality of
striker signing we'd get is tantamount to the Remy's or Falcao's who've done
SO well for Chelsea.
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.
Alexis Sanchez gets the nod
so both Welbeck and Giroud will start
on the bench and Theo Walcott and Iwobi will play
on either side of the Chilean
striker.
So we may not have any good news
on a new
striker coming in, but at least we are not going to lose any of our existing ones either!
The French international has managed to score just nine goals in 29 appearances
so far this season, and coupled with the January arrival of Pierre - Emerick Aubameyang, the pressure really is
on his shoulders having been benched for the last two games since the former Borussia Dortmund
striker arrived.
Ok can this side work against chelsea, i think it can but i would be a little more defensive in the middle, by taking out ozil and pushing cazorla behind the
striker and add Hayden / Coquelin beside Flamini, we can carry
on Ozil in the last 20 minutes, Chelsea defensive players hates a pacey forward line,
so they will be committing lot of fouls and their backs will be occupied.
Still yet to see if he can make the step up from Ligue 1 to the EPL but we've had much worse
strikers in the past
so he's already an upgrade
on alot of dross I've seen come through
Only reason I see him there is
so we have a forward that can defend from the front, that is not a good reason to keep a
striker on 100k a week.
Arsenal have been
on the lookout for a new
striker so far this summer, but have yet to yield in any results.
It is a massive blow for the
striker as well, especially coming
on the back of Giroud producing his best performance of the summer
so far with two well taken goals and a standing ovation from the French fans in the quarter - final win over Iceland.
