We don't have all round strikers

Think Martinelli is more the type of striker we’re transitioning towards. Seen a bit of what we currently lack in Balogun too (pray that he stays).

Aubameyang’s qualities outweigh the flaws in his game, and overall I think, when he’s on his game, Lacazette is pretty good at holding up the ball, and bringing others into play.

Pepe seems a lost cause now, and Nketiah just confuses me. I think we’ll try to offload both in the summer though.

Just feel as a striker, more is needed in your armoury, especially in the game today our strikers are very poor in that department.

Someone like Rvp was the ultimate

"Auba, Laca, Eddie, Pepe all are decent enough goals scores"

Aubameyang. A decent goal scorer. Lord help you Castor.

"However, one of the biggest reason why we have struggled to create this season "

The biggest reason we've struggled to create this season is because we didn't have enough quality behind the striker and the slow ponderous midfield. Our best games, and most productive, have been when we've rectified both positions.

Strikers don't create chances. They finish them.

Against the low block, players behind the strikers will also suffer. You need help from the striker.

The job of a striker, in modern times, isn't just about goal scoring

It's why I said some are a lot better and yes Auba is a more than just a decent goal scorer

Look at most of the top strikers in the league and look at their assist records

No I don't. I like gabriel. He has just been poor recently

Luka Jovic please.

Pepe and Nketiah look like a lost cause to me, you cannot wait years for players to "come good" because they almost never do.
Lacazette is okayish when in form but of course is not a patch on Kane or Son - and I have to say that through gritted teeth.
Good grief, even Lucas Moura is better than these three...

What about Will James (he’s been downgraded from Wilner as it’s an insult to James Milner)?

posted on 24/1/21

James isn’t THAT bad

I don’t know what to call him anymore. Williaspas? I know Aspas has had a decent career but in the PL he was diabolical

posted on 24/1/21

He really is. Obertan and Bellion were probably better. I suppose he’s not earning obscene money like Wili Dia is, though.
