With that attitude he would never go anywhere but Bayern.
He would be good competition to Giroud not decent back up for him imo.
That's not my opinion, that's the opinion of the poster two posts before.
I think he's better than Giroud personally, though I don't think he's as good as we are led to believe.
If Lewandowski is available for a good price then we must get him. He's not the type of player we as fans need to waste time weighing up the pros and cons for, he's a proven goalscorer and isn't one of those prolific but limited strikers either, he's technically good and comfortable with his back to goal as well.
Been very impressed with Bif this season but the more options we have the better for the squad overall.
He also provides us with a plan B, of perhaps 2 strikers upfront (eg 4-1-2-1-2 / 442) . Right now we can only play one up top given how stretched we are.
Nope, hes lazy, slow and thick. No cleaning up to be had. You'll see in 2 weeks when we run through him.
Dont kid yourself, Wenger would never play 2 lumps up front. Even a football philistine like Arry would go for one big'un and one little/fast'un. Thats my issue with him, too similar to Giroud. But 7 million is 7 million.

I don't think we need to be led to believe anything. I would be surprised if many have not seen him play a very good number of times, at CL level, international level and maybe even club level, so we can all make our own well informed opinion of him.
He could have a lot more hype around him considering his standing and there were no real big attempts from anyone to sign him last summer.....and pre contract agreements with a club don't stop other clubs testing the water.
He is not so similar to Giroud that he would make for a strange signing either. I think the comparison is a little lazy. Even if they were exactly the same player, I've never seen two players more alike than Chamberlain and Gnabry, but I am happy for the pair of them to remain......and whilst we are at it, I'd take another Cazorla / Ozil off anyone's hands if there's one going.
Like I've mentioned, I don't believe 7 million is even close to the price he would actually go for in January, but I have thought we should be considering him regardless of the latest rumour about being available for 7 million anyway.
If only for the lack of viable alternatives named in this thread alone.
Right I think it's now time for the Winter transfer shit thread.
You served us well.
Higuain.
Suarez.
Ginter.
Bernard.
Roberts. Maybe next time.
