It’s a good question. Another question might be if we break quicker with a more mobile striker, with Cazorla, Xhaka and Ozil all capable of delivering precise long balls.
Finally he can play some through balls . With Giroud, it’s not possible
Santi Nacho and Héctor be like: pulpo a la gallega
And it is funny what I did there (did anyone notice?)… I actually mentally bought into the notion (or simply resigned myself sub-consciously) that we wouldn’t get a first striker and hence said “we needed a second striker/first winger” - anyhoooooo, glad the window is shutting and I can focus on watching football.
The point was more that Barcelona don’t tend to buy garbage. Even being a backup option for them would indicate he has something about him.
I thought that until Pedro happened.
What, the starting winger from Guardiola’s best Barcelona XI?
Yeh that’s the one.
That makes no sense with the Vardy situation.
Shit I forgot about him. Okay in that case, we had a plan with Vardy and when that failed, we looked at alternatives - aimed high to begin with and then lowered our sights towards the end of the window.
The Vardy setback caused us to re-evaluate and in classic Wenger fashion, loads of time went by without much happening.
Lol! Really? Paella for everyone!
For the 1 season wonder, check out this goal 3 years ago:
Assists, then goals in Greece (he’s the number 10)
FC Karpaty
I immediately turned that middle video off when I’m at a payphone started blasting through my speakers.
Giroud will still be number 1 choice, unless Perez proves to be better then him
Which shouldn’t be hard.
At least he doesn’t always look like he’s running through treacle. It’s a good start.
In before “I’d rather have this guy than Ibra”.
Huh? Who would say that?
