100 % would like to see another forward /
striker come in this summer.
Not exact matches
I do hope that Arsene Wenger has a fantastic ace up his sleeve when it
comes to getting a new
striker for Arsenal fans to cheer about
in the current
summer transfer window, but I must admit to living more
in hope than expectation and as the days and weeks tick by my concern increases that it will be the same old story for us.
While there have been plenty of former Arsenal players, including the TV pundits Paul Merson and Thierry Henry, as well as every man and his dog with an opinion about Arsene Wenger and Arsenal, ready to jump on the bosses back and bemoan his failure or refusal to use the
summer transfer window to sign another
striker, there are a few that have
come out
in support of the under fire Frenchman.
We ALL know that theres NOT going to be any «top class
strikers»
coming to the emerites this
summer, Wenger is sitting on his hands yet again and the reason for this is that he expects France to win the euro's and if they do he can spout about how Giroud is the best
striker in Europe and then he will have no reason to spend any money on a new guy.
The Serbia
striker, whose contract at Standard Liege
came to an end this
summer, signed a pre-contract agreement with Liverpool
in February, but speculation has been rife that former Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez, now at Inter Milan, would attempt to ambush the deal.
Lacazette's manager at Lyon, Bruno Genesio, has admitted that although he wants Lacazette to remain, that his star
striker could still leave the club this
summer if the right bid
comes in.
his goal scoring record speaks for it self but would be better if we got him for cheaper price like closer to # 20 million, could be bargain for 2 - 3 years of shed - load of goals probably the most flamboyant of all the
strikers we could be approaching this
summer, has got a right nose for the back of the net and scores from every angle under the sun with both feet, and he would be a great stopgap until akpom
comes good
in 2 years time.
Another downer on the situation is that Aubameyang has said himself that he favours the Spanish League, and Spanish reports have already this month claimed he will be joining Real Madrid
in the
coming close - season, but that could possibly open the door for another
striker to move this
summer.
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.
I agree 100 %, my frustration does not stem from being kicked out of the FA cup by Watford or an other dumb red card against Spurs or for being eliminated from the CL, my frustration
comes from the fact that we all know
in the
summer we would suffer injuries and that we need more goals
in the team
in the form of a quality
striker.
Id be highly surprised if Benzema
came to us anyway Ill be every very surprised if Wenger goes
in for an established
striker this
summer my own feeling is that he's already put his balls on the table with his statement regarding giroud.
However, with his contract
coming to an end this
summer, the
striker's future is up
in the air, and it remains to be seen whether he will sign a new deal
in the French capital.
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.
So the news reported by The Sun about the Nigeria international
striker Odion Ighalo and the acceptance of his current club Watford that they may have to sell him
in the
summer should
come as music to the ears of the prof.
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.
Maybe all those concerned with the success of Arsenal
in the Premier League
in the
coming months will have something to worry about if the reports about this transfer deal turn out to be true and the Spanish international
striker Pedro Rodriguez does join our rivals Chelsea from Barcelona this
summer.
Even if they turn out to be just the usual sort of spurious rumours that we will be seeing a lot more of
in the
coming months, the Arsenal boss still looks set to have a big problem with his star
striker, all because of the strange decision to hold another Copa America tournament this
summer, even though the last one was held less than a year ago, with Alexis scoring the winning penalty against Argentina to win it for the first time.
sorry to be all negative but we all know where this signing, as good as it is will lead Benzema will be out of Real madrid this
summer and Ibrahimovic is looking to
come to the premier league BUT will we be involved
in getting either of these world class
strikers??
come on wenger sign carvalho and hummels
in january and
in the
summer sign a top class
striker and we will be champions.Thats 100 milion and you get a winning squad
Score loads for Crystal Palace and either;
Come back, play more, prove your place or Wenger sell him
in summer and take the profit then spend on new
striker.
would wenger spend that sort of money on a defender??? nahh he has» nt spent that sort of money on a a
striker, But Sven Mislintat may do
come the
summer, Control of the transfer policy has been gradually being wrested from Wengers tight little grip, but rome wasnt built
in a day and the board are still
in the tail end of Wenger mode.

in the
coming summer transfer, get 1 top quality
striker, a CB and a CDM for Arsenal next season campaign.

Barbosa could prove to be a huge signing

summer of 2013 [via Guardian Sport], and it has been widely speculated that Wenger is ready to re-ignite his interest

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.
Well put steven i think the winter period hurt laca first year
in epl is tough on majoruty of foreign
strikers bellerin has been decent but he could srengthen up and xhaka has had his oppurtunoty and not grabbed with cazorla
coming back and a
summer open for signings he is indee pressure now but with time i think the new signings will start to gel and with perspective to the Rticle i agree with uou there is no white flag being thrown up this article really lacked the perspective that was being asked because it jist said we lost some games without an honest reflection pf how those games went everyone has lost games this year and liverpoodlians even lost to swansea city to wigan
This
summer's transfer arrivals may well prove the biggest inclination as to whether we will be staying
in the current formation, with a new defender needed to
come in and play centre - back, and a top
striker needed this
summer.
Despite the Mirror's report that he has now signed a new long - term contract, it is also claimed that Arsenal will be

The Boss will indeed
in the
coming Summer window sign some top quality addtions that'll include, a top
striker, a top left back, a top CB and possibly sign another top CDMF.
Alexis
in his second season after a freakishly brilliant start, Ozil
coming in to consistent form at the end of his second season, Coq now with a proper body of work under his belt and a whole
summer to work on it, Bellerin with his first season jitters out of his system, Giroud finally realising he might be a pretty decent
striker, Gab with some solid performances and the close - season to bond further, Monreal maturing
in to an unspectacular but tremendously solid FB, Ospina settled — it is my opinion that these and others will be what will bring the bigger improvements and the consistency needed next year rather than any wholesale changes.
Mr Lean, I agree I think Lacazzette is something wenger is thinking about he's typical wenger and he would add quality finishing to our side, we have some deadwood eg Flamini and I wish him the best but him and Diaby need to be released
in the
summer, I think Reid will
come in this
summer as a back up to the other 3, all we need is another
striker and another DM and we are good enough to challenge
I know it's a big «What If», but according to Arsene Wenger we
came so close to signing Kylian Mbappe last
summer that Le Prof even went to visit the young French
striker at his home to try and tip the balance
in Arsenal's favour.
Manchester City though, believe they hold the trump card
in the inevitable
coming summer saga, with incoming Dortmund boss Thomas Tuchel being keen to land Citizens
striker Edin Dzeko.
I think the signing of both of these players would be a great boost for us for the
coming season Cavani has undeniable class but can't see Wenger going for a
striker this
summer considering that we only bought Welbeck not even a year ago, I think we should go for Marco Reus as our now customary (or so they would have us believe) marquee signing of the
summer and promote from within to fill some of the other gaps
in our squad, except for maybe CDM as we lack rotation
in this area, but our very own Le Coq shows what promotion from within can achieve, he is just one of many players to
come through the ranks to command a spot
in our starting XI, such as Bellerin those 2 seem like almost the first names on the team sheet nowadays who would have thought that 1 year ago or even 6 months ago?
Nice article... I used to be one of those staunch Wenger fans through the years... I used to believe he is superior than Sir Alex, because with almost nothing to spend and playing with kids, he managed to keep us up there every year... I was really caught up with that half season wonder we used to show...
In the summer 2013, him or the board (I don't recall) came out and said we are much stable financially and now we can fight with the biggest bullies, I got my hopes high, I thought we are definitely signing a top striker and DM, that what we need... What happened, only hours before the window closed we managed to sign a top AMF (remember we have our best player for the season 2012 - 2013 was AMF, Cazorla if you remember), I was really depressed seen Giroud leading the line every match... then comes winter window, and we were right there top of the table... My friend send me a poster of an elephant on a tree, and on the bottom of it «no one knows how it got there but everybody knows how it will get down»... I told my friend that we are only one decent striker far from the gold... and what happened, we signed an old injured DM on loan... That for me was a completely arrogance and stubbornness cost us the league title... There I completely lost the plot with Wenger... I wish yesterday I was with those who raised that banner... I would write in my banner «Enough talks and philosophy, we need results&raqu
