Laca has 1 goal less than Lukaku in less minutes.

Think we probably got the best deal.

#825

Thank god for that. Have had enough of wasteful strikers. :stuck_out_tongue:

#826

Lacaā€™s been good all season imo, even games he doesnā€™t score his off the ball movement is great. I know Wenger hasnā€™t played him as much as we like but I expect there to be a tactical or fitness reason behind it.

*2 non penalty goals behind

Chelsea got the best deal. Morataā€™s overall play with his close control, pace, link up play and ability to make his own goals is better than the other 2 as is his movement.

I thought Lukaku cost 75m??

Itā€™s feasible I didnā€™t hear about add ons.

Would agree that Chelsea made the best signing, early days though it is.

Big loss.

Hope we start Welbeck rather than Giroud, but I think itā€™s unlikely given Oliā€™s braceā€¦

15m add ons yes

#831

Walcott should be starting at CF for us against united.

#832

Yea would definitely start Welbeck with Giroud off the bench later on depending on the circumstances.

A real shame for Laca, would have been interesting to to see the trio in this form against United.

#833

I start giroud United are going to park the bus anyway so might aswell Crossballs into the box and hope giroud heads them inn

#834

Lukaku is good at what he does, but i prefer a striker who controls the ball and then shoots immediately.

#835

Giroud has a decent record against United as well doesnā€™t he?

Weā€™ll probably start Welbeck and Giroud together. God knows weā€™ll need the height against Uniteds giant team.

#836

I fancy Welbeck against the defensive frailties of Lindelof so far, could easily see a game where Giroud is rendered ineffective against United being super defensive.

#837

Remember him scoring a golazo against them in 2014.

#838

Iā€™d probs start Welbeck too. The guy has alot to prove, that should work in our favour

#839

We lost that game. Did Giroud start?

#840

No he came on as a sub

STFU already

Itā€™s not a ridiculous proposition, honestly. Walcott is the better goalscorer. But meh, Welbeck offers better workrate and pressing and I guess more potential in that if it comes together for him on the day and he forgets how to be such a shit finisher heā€™s a more complete player.
