Arsene Wenger and the Arsenal fans can hardly believe our luck that Louis van Gaal took the decision that Manchester United were full to the brim of
quality striking options (snigger) and felt that he no need of Danny Welbeck and would therefore be happy to sell the forward to a direct rival.
Now that the financial crippled club has not managed to get the asking price they wanted for David Villa, with both Barcelona and Real Madrid looking elsewhere for
quality striking options, they are forced to consider lowering their valuation on Silva in order to make ends meet.
The sad truth is that we are just a couple of players away from having a very strong starting 11... Wenger's fixation with Walcott and mertesakher as starting players remains a mystery to me... neither have the quality of a top team like arsenal... I am not a giroud hater but he is still too inconsistent and the big question is whether welbeck can push him in a way Walcott won't... Campbell has done well and has moved ahead of Walcott and, ox for sure but there is still a question about how much more he can improve... Elneny is certainly an upgrade over arteta and flamini whether he will make it I don't know just hope that he does but arguably wenger could have been more ambitious... That leaves a top
quality striking option... There is no doubt that wenger deluded himself over the summer and that needs to be corrected ASAP... Draxler dybala aube and even griezman with a big enough big could have been prized in summer... january not a good time for this but it is not difficult to find better options than Walcott ox or Campbell... All a question of whether wenger wants to win EPL on his terms or wants to win this for the club
Not exact matches
Gundogan is a
quality player who I'd be happy to see in arsenal shirt but without another world class
strike option... Sanchez is the only one right now... I don't see much chance of progression next season and with wenger's stupid recent talk about Walcott there are real worries that the guy is looking in right places to strengthen squad
Watching game yesterday should confirm need for another
strike option... Walcott wellbeck sanogo podolski etc will not do the job... and if Alexis proves anything it's that shelving out on
quality reaps dividends... 20 goal a season man would be the best but someone with a dozen or more in them is critical
Though this formation would mainly help control the Midfield it would also offer the best of our
striking options in combining Giroud and Sanchez, which both oddly enough have the exact
qualities the other player lacks, and will offer an aerial presence in the game.
Don't understand the Frenchman we need
quality defensive cover whether DM or cb and another
striking option....
Ox a better
option but need anither world class
striking option in summer to match the
quality we have in creating chances
Lille striker is a top
quality, but affordable,
striking option.
arsenal have suffered recently from playing
quality players out of position... Sadly Monreal isn't
quality and the belief that over a season we have adequate back up with him as CB is just dumb beyond belief... this was a good win against an under strength competitor... but we need a DM and another
striking option for sure....
I agree it was a close game but in the knockout stages of the UCL
quality makes the difference and our
striking options are not world - class.
Giroud is just an average footballer and with Walcott or welbeck or Campbell as
strike partners even with Sanchez in mix there is simply no way we can win anything with current attacking
options... The fact that wenger has refused to acknowledge this over last 4 years is astounding even for the 8m a year man... And we thought Phillip green was overpaid... Shameful stuff which can only be justified if he brings in two
quality strikers... I reserve judgement til September but not optimistic
The team seemingly look sluggish, with defensive and
striking options being limited and lacking the
quality we come to expect from Liverpool.
I really can't believe anyone would say we should put most of our
striking options on Campbell, we can only judge him by a few reserve games, some games for Hull City (nowhere near topflight) and pre - season games (which is just as silly as judging a player based on youtube videos), we still need a clinical finisher, something Tevez and Rooney are not, Manucho has no experience in England and i don't think the Angolan league is anywhere close to EPL
quality.
This leaves Walcott and Podolski as our only remaining
striking options, a position neither of them impressed in last season, however, with such
quality and work rate in our midfield they would have far less to do and could focus more on link up play and running at defenders (Theo's biggest asset).
The ASPCA believes that while effective shelter policies must
strike a difficult balance between appropriate discretion and necessary accountability, the primary responsibilities of animal shelters are to identify and pursue successful placement
options for the animals in their care, provide
quality care to the animals sheltered and to fulfill the needs of pets and people in the community they serve.
