I'm uncertain of the number of times I have seen cassette play, maybe five or six times (and thousands of times in the 80s), but I'm certain that on each occasion he didn't impress. Of the 37 goals he scored last season, 38 were from the penalty spot. Maybe I just caught him on a bad day every time. Wonder why we aren't trying for Aubameyang?

Not even the YouTube hype videos can make this guy look special. And is he really only 5 foot 9? Fuck. 50 million quid? Why the fuck didn't we bid that for Suarez when we had the chance?

If we hang onto Ozil and Alexis then okay, Cassette is a useful (though stupendously overpriced) addition I guess. But if we lose Alexis and maybe Ozil too? If this is supposed to be Alexis' replacement then Wenger deserves every bit of stick he gets from here in.

People on here thinking and talking like Wenger. It's idiotic. Are we really going to argue for the younger cheaper option or hope he figures out an internal solution after all we have seen? More Giroud anyone? Perez hasn't even managed to score 15 goals in back to back seasons. Welbeck can't even connect with the ball to be striker.

Yeah, the fans will have to get behind the guy and give him encouragement and then hope he makes a step up. But it continues to demonstrate how out of touch Wenger is with the requirements of his own team and especially the expectations of the fans. We are not getting a Wright or Henry here. Fans will figure that out pretty quickly and then it might become a tough ride for the player. He'll have so much expectation heaped on his shoulders plus the record fee, and unfortunately he's just not that good. Maybe he's a late developer? We can hope.

His record is insane really, he scores goals for fun.

However, cant help but feel we are going for 2nd rate French talent compared to the likes of Lemar, Mbappe, Dembele, Griezmann etc.

Cant understand how he hasn't scored that many for France as well, Giroud has a much better scoring rate (and way more appaearances).

He hardly starts games for France from the looks of it. 11 appearances but only looks like he's every started 3 or 4 games. Has only played the full 90 once and looks to have been played on the RW or LW. I wouldn't pay too much attention to it.

He has a consistent record and that's what makes me more comfortable with this signing. The others may look more flashy but with only one standout season under their belts and young, we'd be taking a serious gamble.

Marc Overmars
03-07-2017, 04:06 PM
We've played the percentages. Signing a Lemar or Mbappe would have dragged on all summer and cost twice as much as someone with a consistent and prolific record in Lacazette.

With Wenger in charge we wont win the title even if we keep them for one more year. Might as well get some funds in to buy their replacements, as long as we're not selling to one of the English clubs.

I would prefer the club to put football and trying to win the title above all else. I don't care what the good business move is. We've gone along with that for far too long. I want the best team out on the pitch. Similar to what happened with RVP, you never know what could have happened if we kept him for his last year but with Podolski, Giroud and Cazorla brought in as new additions.

Good to see we’ve finally got this guy. Good signing. He doesn’t look like a one man band type of striker but he can finish. Scores a variety of different goals and knows how to beat the keeper. We need that. I’m hoping he’s the type of striker that makes the right sort of decision in front of goal. Too often we see strikers for us make the wrong decision in front of goal such as taking one too many touches or going for power instead of finesse, not hitting the ball first time…subtle stuff in a striker that’s underrated these days. Excited to see him play.

I also wonder where this leaves Welbeck. He needs to leave too if he cares about playing for England again. The player I'd like to keep is Perez. Technically an excellent player.

Spot on, won't be too disappointed to see the back of Giroud, would prefer to keep Perez who hasn't been given a chance and would be a good backup based on what he's shown.

I was thinking the same about Bif. He gets goals off the bench and is a good squad player. But I also have a feeling that Wenger would do something silly and play Lacazette on the wing just to squeeze Bif into the team. It’s not really Giroud’s fault. Heck, I’m not against Wenger trying to play a 3-5-2 with Bif and Lacazette paired up top.

In the build-up to that game at the end of last season Arsene Wenger suggested he was open to burying the hatchet with his old rivals.

“I am open always in life to everything, for peace,” he said.

Jose Mourinho responded by saying: “He doesn't need to. He doesn't need to [make peace] because there are no problems.

"In the last match at Old Trafford [1-1 draw last November], we shook hands before and after. I remember that I still met him in the corridor for the press conferences, we shook hands again.

"He doesn't need to make peace. When there is peace, we don't have to have problems.”

More likely Wenger's got some harebrained scheme to get him sorted now for some big end of season push he has fantasised about. He probably thinks we have more than enough talent to cover for him in the Europa where we shall be underestimating our opponents as usual.

You read comments by players saying Wenger's pretty distant with them, so who is it that does the work of building confidence etc?

Steve Bould???

lacazette's been signed for a huge fee, not given much service on the pitch and then sidelined as soon as someone else catches Wenger's eye.

It's a disgraceful way to treat people who, yes, get paid a lot but whose careers are so short at the highest level

Wenger wouldnt know what to do with Messi and Van Basten at his peak. His career was largely built on the back of players who gelled on the pitch and off it too. Players who largely ignored his instructions and played like a bunch of long time friends. When he lost that he lost everything that made his myth. Hes been doing his coaching badges at our club since 2006 and failing each year.

Someone we've got another player injured again, at least we excel at something!

Real shame, our chances of winning the Europa are regressing by the day, we've totally blown our chances in the league and now we'll struggle to put together an attack in a competition we have to win.

Massive blow to us this one, maybe Wenger can stick Xhaka up front, after all he seems to thinkthis guy is the best thing since sliced bread.

Embarrassing incident this one, a knee injury out of the blue, have we been playing a guy who's injured and made it worse?

Honestly how amateurish is this, we get rid of 3 strikers, buy a guy who is ineligible and lose our other striker for 6 weeks due to a knee operations that we must have know about before.

Bambi it is then, the guy who couldn't hit with a barn door with banjo.

I'd hire Moyes right now, without hesitation. If it means Wenger's gone then do it.

And the added bonus of hiring Moyes is we know he'd be sacked by the end of the season.

good points all, btw it's normally a cow's arse that people can't hit with a banjo - the barn door is big enough that you should be able to hit it unaided... :geek:

I've never heard that saying tbh, but I have heard the 'Barn door with a banjo' one before - as you've pointed out - is exactly the point of the quip.

I don't think it's legal to do anything to a cow's arse with a banjo, or any other musical instrument.

Although, when you google it - it comes up a lot - so clearly plenty of people have heard/used that phrase before.

That's just people googling it because they are looking to prove someone wrong who's used it incorrectly - it's kind of how fake news starts... :cool:
