Higuain to Chelsea,according to many reports. He has scored 33 goals in 34 serie games this season, pretty impressive.
We should definitely make a move for him but we probably wont.
As good as Higuain obviously is, unless we change up our style of play I don't think strikers like him can really rack up the numbers with us. WUMger wants his striker up top to do it all and that class of player is very hard to come by.
There were periods this season when we played with Theo upfront and we looked good and direct but then he got injured and Giroud came in and the rest is history. We play slow tippy tappy because Wenger is obsessed with sideways posession but we also do it because we have Giroud upfront. Higuain is the kind of striker to score goals against any kind of defense, he is a poacher as well as a scorer of great goals.
If the chavs are in then we are out. We have never gone head to head in the transfer market with a club that invests and come out winning. We either find players the investing clubs haven't targeted or we nose around the bins after everyone else has finished doing their business. As soon as those season ticket renewals are banked the window will go deathly silent for us in terms of transfers in. Should be quite busy for transfers out though.
Kante wants to join us, all over the French press apparently, reputable papers too, also Matt Spiro's on twitter has a piece on the story.
Rumour is Wenger wouldn't try and trigger the clause of Kante until he had verbally said he wants to join us.
See if this one develops.....would be extremely surprised if we're in for both him and Xhaka.
Bitt odd, that. All the places mentioning of this are saying Kante has 'chosen' us. Weird.
Sign him up!
Kante AND Xhaka?
Hell of a midfield, that.
We will never sign them both...
