.....I still insist we sell Lacazette if the right price comes. I know he is a fan favourite but it's the sad truth. The guy doesn't have the natural instinct of a striker and lacks positioning and doesn't finish the few chances he gets. He scores great goals no doubt but he is a home kind of player and that isn't good enough for a team wanting to win the league or compete in the champions League.

.....We can't have two elite strikers fighting for one spot, it won't work. It's why they usually insist on playing together as Laca is more of a second striker but that combination has barely produced goals. By the time we get two good wingers, one of them is bound to leave anyway, and my money is on Lacazette. Auba's pace with two wingers is any manager's dream. Cash out now and build our team. Those deadwoods we have will barely fetch us 35m in total and I doubt if we will sell Chambers; we need a capable backup for Torreira and the English quota system will come into play too.
Ozil is highly unlikely to leave; we screwed ourselves with that one so except we want to go through another season with an "unbalanced squad" we need to sell one of those strikers and get a cheap capable one and use the remaining money somewhere. It's just logical.

..... We need to be ruthless; the time of fan favourite and hoping players come good is why we are where we are today. Klopp and Guardiola came in and cleanse the squad because they wanted players with their vision of play. If Auba is the one to be sacrifice I could care less; Arsenal is the goal here and not any player. We must get back to the top.

Exactly.
Sign him and use under 23 games to build up his confidence level.
If he proves too good for U23s by the way outstanding performance (goals, dribbles, assists), them promote him to senior team ASAP.
Iwobi is a waste of space.

Fkhalifa:
I also feel he can, his team at Sevilla was quality, hard working and technical.I want to see him bring his players before I conclude.
He might tried to drill the boys,but they don't have the energy to do it a whole year.
Guen started as someone who's got heart,takes risk and ready to Man the team,but seems to have been infected by his seniors with fearfulness and laziness, only if had quality leaders to build him up. Forgot how Bellerin,Iwobi and Chambers started? Now fans want them out.No leaders!
I hope Emery and scouts can be and bring those unpopular good players before they get too expensive.

sod09:
sell him to turkey besikas,fenebache or gala for 25-30m
He should be comfortable with their game play there and they will worship him

sod09:
I was waiting to see ozil on your to sell list and miraculously he survived.
How come

pazienza:
So, have we officially signed Martinelli yet?

We need players to walk into our starting eleven straight away, will Martinelli do that? I doubt. Heard will be playing for the under 23 side.

Any way,, I watched his highlights and he can already shoot better than Iwobi, not that it takes alot to do that, seeing that Iwobi shoots like a grandmother.
It's better. After all nobody thought that guen will ever see shirt this season, not to talk of playing over 20matches. If he can dribble and shoot, then he should enter our squad o. After all most of us here fit want chukwueze and chukwueze is young also. Anybody that can dribble with pace and shoot accurately is highly needed o, even if na 14yr old boy. Lol

Fkhalifa:
Thank you bro. What I saw in that spurs team is pure ruggedness, city was too hot that day, I was picturing mY Arsenal in that situation and I answered myself we'll crack and get raped.
Next time spurs are playing, Observe the following: Rose, vetroghen,Alderweirld,Sissoko,Wanyama to mention a few, they play with heart,and should they lose a game, their opposition must have done an hectic job.
I hope we get back to UCL, so we can attract good players, we may not necessarily invest largely like city, Emery can do Klopp and poch's style by getting players like Zaha,Tarkoswki,Knockert,deloifou,Docoure,Carrasco, etc.

.....I understand but since Emery likes using one striker most of the time and Auba rarely gets injured, it will be a waste of money to have one sitting on the bench. We are not Mancity and don't have that endless kind of wealth. Check out most teams, they have one elite striker and an average one. Having both in our doesn't make sense especially when we don't have such quality in other vital positions on the pitch.

....Sell other players you say? Bro, the highest we have gotten for a player leaving our squad was Chamberlain I think. It's just shows we don't sell well and yet our owner won't give us a dime of his own money. Can we honestly say that there is any player in our squad that will give good money in our squad right save for the big money buys? Get two quality wingers with Auba in the middle and we will be feared both home and away. Right now, our attack is toothless that's why after twenty minutes yesterday, when we did nothing apart from passing here and there, wolves came out because they knew our attack could do nothing.

... Right now, Auba guarantees goals whether we are playing well or not, Laca has to be sold for us to get back to the elite. He is one of the few that will fetch mega bucks for us in our horrible squad. I know we like him but if we get a big offer, we should sell just like Liverpool did with Coutinho....

....Iwobi won't improve unless he has serious competition and now who is he competing against? Suarez? Mkhi? By the time he sits on the bench for three to four games for better players, no one will tell him to learn to shoot.

..... It's why I have been crying out for the lad, the guy cost City 37m but we were buying Lacazette for 50m who has scored just seven away goals in two seasons while Auba that people dish have scored 7 in 12 away games. What's the difference between Laca and Giroud when both fail to score goals when needed. Look, if we can get a buyer for Laca, we should sell asap and get world class wingers. A winger like peak Sanchez cannot be overemphasized. A striker with 7 away goals in two seasons? Jesus! no wonder our away form has been atrocious the last two seasons.

Actually the GPA will be the points

City will be the guy who made 4.94 GPA while Arsenal the one who made 4.52.

MrDojo:
Welcome, broda.

On this thread, your either for Guen or against him...

kakakii:
I'm sorry but you pop out for nothing and it's sad that you had to leave your guest mode for this man...

He is shameless and will find a way to turn your simple question into a 5 page argument
On your mark
Set
Go

raumdeuter:
In your analogy where do you factor the numerous draws that Wenger had that didnt make him get up to 100points

Guardiola lost 2 games and still finished 10points ahead of Wengers best season

solomonbrown64:
.........Hello bro....nice meeting you too.

sod09:
you welcome bros, we hope you don't watch from sidelines again and contribute too
Wengay almost made us living dead let's hope Emery turns thing for us.

Cheers

pazienza:
You are welcome brother.

Fkhalifa:
You're welcome, we hope you contribute more on here, mind you we attack one another here gan , yes it will be so until we get to the level we wanted.

raumdeuter:
That's because the points record is more important than unbeaten

Like I said,
5 wins 5 draws 20 points
Or
9 wins 1 loss 27 points

Pick one
