it's about having enough pace in the attacking unit not every player needs to be super fast
-------------------------
That is not true. Think abt it for a second. The starting position of those players are vital to pushing CBs back and creating space.
RW/LW start from a deeper position and are usually defended by full backs of the opposition. Full backs are much faster than CBs so the opposing back line does not need to drop deep. Most managers accept that a LW/RW will have to beat a full back and a covering Cb to get onto goal. So its easier to defend a fast LW/RW.
If there is a FAST central striker on the CB however (furthest forward), the CBs have to drop deep or play offside. Playing offside against someone of the class of Ozil/Alexis/Santi putting in through ball is suicidal. This is why Barca got rid of Ibra (one the best link strikers ever) so quickly. Fluidity really needs fast players across the front line. This is why Messi, Saurez and Neymar are such a fantastic combination. All three are very sharp, make terrific off the ball runs, rotate (so you cannot mark one out of the game) and push the entire opposing back line backwards.

You are getting worked up about not going for players a 5 days after the season has finished when everyone at Arsenal is taking a well earned break
Take a month off, its the summer holidays. Go and find a nice girl book a weekend away on a beach somewhere. This place will be here for you to moan, rant and rave when you get back I promise.
Spend millions of pounds on someone who doesnt make the difference when it matters. Right? Make sense.
--------------
Spend millions on Benzema to replace Giroud? Makes perfect fackin sense to me seeing as he is twice the player.
Benzema hasn't been main man for Madrid so it's hard to judge his big game influence. Bale is a big game player but even he's been ineffective in big games because all goes through Ronaldo.
Bale's biggest moment was in the Copa Del Rey final, no surprises it was when Ronaldo wasn't playing.
Benzema has a strong mentality it just won't be acknowledged till he's main man, his ability is worth us affording him that opportunity.
Much better than Giroud
he's ready to play there now and there's a good balance with him/Giroud rotating and Theo playing wide sometimes. They have opposite style so we can mix up tactics.
---------------
What a myth
The fifa mentality returns.
When has there ever been a successful rotation policy between strikers for a title challenging team?
You don't simply rotate and expect them to score or even impact the games they start.
CF needs to be a 1st choice and reliable, they need to develop a rhythm.
We will need a certain No. 1 next season and I don't think Wenger is ready to make Theo that guy, the same way he hesitated on doing it with Welbeck.
From what we currently have, Giroud will always be the main choice and it's simply not enough. He's backup quality

----------------------------------------------------------------------
You contradict yourself.
You are saying Giroud not good enough in big games. He doesnt wins your titles.
Benzema isnt a big game player either but you want him at Arsenal for the sake of it and pay money over the odds. (Dont think personally that Benzema is available but that is another story).
You want Giroud replaced for the sake of it and at best being sold. At least you should be honest.
Now imagine an elite CF that's quick like Theo but also clinical.
-------------------
So why have you mentioned most of the names you have when none of them are that. Have you actually just forgotten how fast Theo is? Is there even a striker out there who can fit that bill before Walcott scores 30 and "Officially" fits it himself. I confess I don't watch much football other than Arsenal games but exactly what elite CF comes anywhere near Walcott's pace? Because there's nobody you've mentioned that he wouldn't decimate in a foot race.
And this is what bugs me about you harping about this CF. You already know that the player whom fits your above-mentioned description either doesn't exist unless Theo becomes him. Or is totally unobtainable for Arsenal short of Real and Barca going bankrupt and having to sell all their stars off cheap.
GT
When have I ever said Giroud should be sold?
He's proven to be brilliant backup quality and good off the bench but not convinced he's main man.
I don't want Benzema for the sake of it. I want him because he is a quality CF and I have faith that he'd influence big games for us if he was in our team

FFS I'm happy with Theo being deployed my main concern is that eventually he will not.
Looking at the way Arsene has utilised him over the past 6 months is a sign that he's just no fully convinced. Regardless of how much chance he may or may not get Giroud is No. 1 at Arsenal.... FACT.
This isn't good enough not to mention Theo is injury prone and unproven at CF long term.
If he plays there regularly, then great but my main issue is that he just won't
Does anyone have any stats for how many times Giroud has come off the bench and scored. Must be one of the best ratios in the history of the premier league. The Newcastle game a while back, alone would bump it up but then this season you have Everton away and the cup final off the top of my head.
There is a good argument to start Theo and then bring Giroud on later to offer something different

b) part of the reason why he has done well off the bench is the strength of opposition and the tactics at the time. That is CBs drop deep instead of pushing up because they are defending a lead or are tired. How many times has he come off the bench and changed the game against class opposition.

Exactly. Giroud's attitude is spot on, hence why he has scored so many from the bench. He was even the one advocating for us to get another striker to give him competition
Giroud is class but its clear that he cant sustain that top form for more than about ten games at a time ( who can apart from the very very best?) So rotation will be key
Away from strikers.
Javi Martinez would be a superb signing. Could stake a claim to start at centre-back whilst being sufficient cover at DM.
