You would have scored the penalty, but the other 2

Not really sure what you mean?
A penalty? Yes, Arteta can score them.
The two gifts? Not dissimilar finishes to what Welbeck got against Gala.


Can we score goals like Aguero's? Of course we can, and have.


It is the constancy of Aguero scoring goals that sets him apart.

Speculation isnt it? Who knows?

Well ozil missed his pen against them

The point is Aguero earned the penalty, I expect our strikers would have bumbled it or miscontrolled it or been too slow and got caught

Well the first was a pen.

The second finish was top class, I'll give you that.

The third - most decent footballers should be finishing.

Those goals were a result of horrendous defensive mistakes. Of course, credit to Aguero for punishing the mistakes, but it's not like he dribbled his way from his own half.

Giroud 2
Sanogo 1
Welbeck 0

Alexis can

I don't think Giroud would have scored any, he can control the ball but he is too slow and would be caught.

Yaya SoNoGoals is fast enough but he is like bambi on ice - he'd miscontrol those runs and would probably not score any either.

Welbeck might get one - he's in between Giroud & SoNoGoals on pace and ball control.

Note: Walcott & Alexis are not central strikers so aren't really relevant.

Alexis would score all of them
Wallcot probably 2

Beside the pen.
Our strikers?
Welbeck would probably run it to corner flag or out of play
Giroud would flick it to the opponent

Sanogoals would score?

Like most people here, not sure what the OP is trying to get across here. Aguero is a brilliant player, yes, and we don't have a striker anywhere near his level, but his goals were pretty much standard.

The only other thing I would say is that the level of alertness and anticipation shown by Aguero was impressive. The 2nd goal he intercepted the pass well, but the run and finish was sublime. He did well to keep clear of Boateng in the third, and the finish was neat.

The only person at Arsenal who can finish like that is Alexis. Honestly i'm not exactly sure why he can't be made into an out-an-out striker. Aguero has proved that a small yet strong attacker can thrive in the PL. Personally I think Sanchez is wasted out wide or behind the striker.

We were granted similar gift against United and also fluffed them so i doubt we would have scored any of them chances.

The real question is whether from that point in the game Arsenal could have forced the mistakes from Bayern to allow those chances in the first place...

I'm doubtful.

============================

Well I thought it was pretty obvious Serial, our changes->goal ratio is horrible, and in the Aguero examples I am unconvinced most of those would have even ended up as actual chances.

We are just not clinical in front of goal

That's because we have 3 of the worst strikers in Europe.
