But not striker that improves us, eh GT?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You surely want quantity not quality, right. For the sake of it. Good on you.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You really think we couldn't have signed a better striker than our current options!?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not sure how many times I have to explain myself here.
I want Wenger to buy a striker....of course. I want Wenger to spend serious money on a quality striker that is a reliable better finisher in big games than Olivier giroud who is not. Simple.
If you remember I liked the idea of Lacacette at Arsenal. Watching him the last few weeks I have to say thank God we didnt....
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Lacazette has had a falling out with the manager so I would think that has had some affect on his current form this season more than his ability!

GT, I never mentioned Pedro you melon.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
WHat changed over the last few weeks for Lacazette? And if Lacazette didn't inspire confidence over the last few weeks, how can our crop of strikers inspire any? Or do you expect Welbeck to come and suddenly get 5 hattricks in a row?
Honestly our goal drought will change and these guys will suddenly get a hot streak and get some goals. However over the course of 38 games, it is certainly not good enough and I fear, nay, know, that we will be short again.
And Coq will play 50 games this season or something. Fantastic

GT, given United's summer, using them as an example of a beacon of sanity is hardly wise

So right Darren. United needed a CF the whole summer long and didnt do nothing. Not only linked with the likes of Benzema, Cavani or whoever is world class and end up with Martial on deadline day.
Brilliant stuff this! If you believe in that shiiiit it's up to you.
We weren't going to sign a big name striker anyway as Rooney's got us over a barrell.

Name one top striker that has changed clubs this year ?
There is a reason for that.

Top teams are mostly set. Apart from Arsenal.

Very true
The only striker who was truely unavailable would have been Lewandowski (although he would have been the most suited for our team). Every other player would have had a price.
Jackson Martinez - Sold for about £28 Million
Cavani - Could have been had for around 45-50Mil
Benzema - £45 Mil although this would only have happened if Real signed another striker.
Higuian - Why not bid £40 Mil to test the water?
We should have just gone for Jackson Martinez.
Wenger is a complete and utter fool as usual.
Thats why Liverpool moved early for Benteke. They pretty much bit the bullet and paid over the odds rather than risking it all.
Arsenal obviously wouldn't have been able to sign Cavani and Benzema.

We also would have been able to sign Sanchez and Ozil.
You need to face it that players would want to come to Arsenal, we have world class players we just need to fine tune some areas which wenger again messes about.
Benteke was available for 30m. PL proven, quality young striker, would've obviously chosen us over Liverpool. Absolute mess Wenger is. Senile
Madrid and Barca dumped them.
PSG and Real want to keep those two, however. There's a big difference.
#higuian dose not fall into the to class bracket.
Martinez no better than Walcott.
-----------------
Really hope you are taking the pee with the MArtinez is no better than Walcott comment.
1 is a WF trying to be a CF and the other is a cracking CF who has scored at all levels.
Higuain as much as i think hes a chocker is better than Giroud, that is a FACT.
I'm not sure if you're lying Gunnerthru or just have a short memory, just a week ago you were saying that you didn't believe De Bruyne was available but also conceded that every player except maybe Messi has a price.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Nah, Benzema was a very real possibility.
There's a reason he stayed silent on the matter throughout the summer.
Even an Arsenal board member (Lord Harris) told the Daily Mail that Benzema was interested in the move.
The problem is, once that deal couldn't be made, they didn't have a good Plan B - that should have been Morata.
Cavani was unrealistic though because Zlatan is 33 or something.
Real didn't want to sell him. He's their only striker.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes, but they considered selling. No idea why
A huge offer may have pushed it over the edge.

Wenger is pathetic,lost all respect for him
