It really will be interesting to see how we line up and perform if Laca leaves.
Lacazette should be sold off no question.
Doesnāt fit the rebuild and we shouldnāt be extending the contract, ergo sell and reinvest.
If he stays heāll be playing second fiddle to Eddie as well as depreciating further in value, his time at the club should be over.
Willian (Saka) - Auba - Pepe
Sounds like a good frontline to me
No doubt, but again we will be left with very similar strikers. Iām not saying donāt sell. I think we should with 2 years left because I wouldnāt renew. In fact, we shouldāve bought Auba the summer we bought Laca. I do think we will need a replace, if not this summer then in the next 2 transfer windows. We wonāt have any strikers that naturally play with their back to goal. Weāve been caught out a few times not really having different options to change the game. Although it does look like we will a some proper forwards on the bench who can do something.
I agree with everything you say apart from if he stays heāll be paying 2nd fiddle to Eddie, I think heās substantially better than Eddie.
Eddieās ādial upā goal celebration is miles ahead of Lacazetteās weird flute mime routine. Get rid.
Scarcely shown in the past season.
Plus Eddie has much more athleticism in the role.
Eddie isnāt particularly good but he is miles ahead of Lacazette.
In terms of link up, scoring, everything.
Got more away goals for us in a few games than Lacazette managed in like a year.
Can juve bid 50mill for Laca please
Might have a domino effect - would give Atleti the money to spend on Laca
Atleti already need another striker given that Costa is total shit, Simeone does not seem to trust Felix, and they play a two striker system. I have a hard time seeing them selling Morata.
Have they forgotten to quote that 50M* means in the value of bit part players they continuously want to flog?
Why does it feel like Morata keeps moving for big money without actually doing anything?
Yeah I rate Laca higher than Morata definitely
Yeah itās insane, his stats are seriously subpar for a player of his transfer fees and rep
Scoring ? Lol the bloke has scored about 3 goals for Arsenal in his life.
Tbf he was pretty good towards the end of the season.
We are finished.
Luckily Castles says clubs are trying to get this guy.
And actions speak louder than words. We are not trying to extend him, which means heās not exactly integral to our plans.
Or maybe he will be slightly less shit as a fox in the box and not an awful defensive striker.
