Next season prepare to hear this from commentator Peter Drury: "Alex Iwobi outruns Kante and sends a pass to Alex Chamberlain who dribbles Willian and passes it to Alexis, Alexis then sends a through ball to Alex Lacazette who smashes it in the net beyond the reach of Courtois, and its 3-0 at half time again to Arsenal just like they trashed Chelsea last season in the same style"

TheLoneCitizen:
It's no news that Arsenal FC have the most unstable football fan base. It's also no news that every pundit and fan out there have advised, or rather warned, Arsene Wenger to get a marquee signing after he signed a new contract.



Arsenal have remarkably been involved in every star out there, Ronaldinho to Messi to Higuain and the latest being Mbappe, according to their longterm manager. No doubt, disbelief had started brewing in the Gunnerside, after missing out on Eupen wonderkid, Henry Onyekuru. Another Disappointing Campaign?


Not until Rumours started flying that Lyon were receiving bids for Lacazzette from London, and it only became concrete when Lyon President confirmed this.



The reports reached a very strong probability of 5.0 yesterday with some sources stating he was having his medical. It became a reality when Arsenal started teasing fans on instagram earlier today. And now it's confirmed on their twitter account.



Alexander Lacazzette has signed for a reported €45M increasing to €53M plus add-ons, Arsenal almost never announce the transfer fee of their signings. Congratulations to the Emirates.

U don turn am to insult? Are you a teenager? Can't you have a decent conversation without any form of insult whatsoever? There are leagues and there are players. A league doesn't make a player. Players with their clubs make up a league. A Ronaldo, Suarez or Messi in French Ligue 1 can score as many as 50 goals per season. Some players are good enough to perform equally well in all the leagues. Mahrez wasn't even that spectacular in French Ligue 1, yet he made it big in England. My point is, using Lacazette's success in Ligue 1 as metric to shame other strikers that are plying their trades in bigger leagues is B. S. Most of the French players that Wenger signed in recent years were outright flops.

Arsenal is on the right path.
If only Wenger could weed all the Muslim players...they are Arsenal's problems.


Check out clubs like Bayern Munchen.

I am not a fan of any EPL team, but boss, Lacazette is not any better than Morata. Lacazette is more of a box striker. Even as a barca fan, i respect Morata's ability in the No 9 position. I can't say the same for Lukaku tho.

Augiiee:
calling Lacazette a box striker shows you know notin about him. Q: has Morata ever scored 25 goals in a season?

ITS OFFICIAL!!!!!

https://www.arsenal.com/news/alexandre-lacazette-agrees-join-arsenal

Even without champions league we got him!
Best Ligue 1 player 2 seasons ago;
Top League 1 goal scorer 2 seasons ago;
2nd top goal scorer in Ligue 1 last season;
And best French goal scorer in amount of goals scored in the last 3 years

All that and we got him at a fair price. I laugh at Chelsea, Man Utd begging to pay 80 million pounds upwards for the likes of Morata and Lukaku who are not even at his level yet!

Since 2014 to date, Lacazette has scored more goals that Benzema, Giroud, Martial and Griezeman as compared individually, meaning he is the most prolific French striker!

Same thing for Aguero, Kane and Ibrahimovic, Lacazette has scored more goals than all of them from 2014 season to date, go and check!

And for those that would say he is from the French league which doesn't produce good players, please be reminded that the last 3 EPL players of the season all came from the French league, namely: Hazard, Mahrez and Kante.

Next season prepare to hear this from commentator Peter Drury: "Alex Iwobi outruns Kante and sends a pass to Alex Chamberlain who dribbles Willian and passes it to Alexis, Alexis then sends a through ball to Alex Lacazette who smashes it in the net beyond the reach of Courtois, and its 3-0 at half time again to Arsenal just like they trashed Chelsea last season in the same style"

Arsenal beat Chelsea twice last season so you should be scared

Misterdhee1:

Have you asked yourself why the same Giroud he might be replacing benches him in the French National team? Dude has only made TWO strarts for France for your information.
Dont just counter my comment, pls go and google search about him and come back to tell me the number of goals he has scored outside the box in 4 years.



Coiled from the Telegraph:

Will he be a success?

Very difficult to tell. Lacazette has an air of the penalty-box poacher that has sometimes struggled at Arsenal: the original 'fox-in-the-box' Francis Jeffers, Podolski or Perez. Arsenal's best strikers have been complete footballers as well as finishers.

There will be much idle gossip about whether he is 'better than Giroud' or not, but more pertinent is whether he is a better fit for Arsenal than their current options. On balance, the answer is yes and that makes the signing a positive step. Welbeck has greater athleticism, but his end product and fitness are not as reliable. Lacazette looks a hard-worker though the fact he has never lived abroad before might cause acclimatisation problems, even at 26.

Overall, this transfer feels closer to very good addition than a transformational, 'last piece of the jigsaw' purchase. Whether that constitutes success for a £52m striker will be fiercely debated, though the sums involved in the modern market are bordering on meaningless. A likely outcome is a commendable return of 20-odd goals in all competitions, that leaves Arsenal fans still wanting a 'world-class striker' next summer.

SycophanticGoat:


And that is supposed to be an achievement? If that be the case then we can safely say that Liverpool achieved more than Arsenal last season since they didn't loose to any of the top clubs: Chelsea, Manchester United & City, Arsenal, Spurs and Everton; but that's silly anyways.

Mind you, I'm no Chelsea fan. As a matter of fact, I even like Arsenal more than Chelsea but I also like being realistic.

Like I said it was an achievement. Being realistic? How? So being realistic means Arsenal is no threat?

SycophanticGoat:


Even the greatest prospective buys comes with 0.5 probability or chances of success. So you can't say for sure that anything has changed in Arsenal's squad until Lazarus delivers.
