Sanogo is already enough cause for laughter, except the joke is on us fans
frankly concerns me the amount of times podolski has been linked with an exit from the club, i'm still of the opinion that he has more value to us as a striker than Giroud...he is a better finisher and has more pace.
Well I hope there is some sort of decent replacement lined up otherwise that is 15 goals going out the door this season. Sanogo and Campbell will struggle to get to that combined total.
I've had this inkling for a while that with his finishing ability (one of the best in the league) he could be an absolute goal machine up front, gobbling up chances and scoring 25+ goals a season there.
I know it hasn't worked in the past but that may be more because of the system Wenger's designed where the striker is expected to play a more supporting role in the attack, something he's not capable of doing because he's too lazy and doesn't have the physicality. Not that I suggest changing the entire setup just for one player but it would have been something worth considering given how difficult it is to bring in a 25 goal a season striker as the past two transfer windows have demonstrated.
Agree with Kano as well. Hopefully this does mean we sign another striker as his goals will be missed unless Campbell (got no hopes for Sanogo) steps up.

'We have Sanogo!' :haha:
We're not signing another striker. He's put his faith in Giroud and that's that.
We'll see if he continues Ozil out wide. Makes even less sense to turn down Cesc if that continues on.
Getting rid of our best finisher but keeping the worst finisher we ever had? I admit, I don't get it.
Did he ever really get a fair run of games up front? I know Wenger sees more of him in training, but it is a shame to be losing proven quality. I agree with the above though, Campbell is still very raw, and I just don't see the potential in Sanogo that some talk about because I think he lacks basic technique. Hope to be proved wrong though.
Then again, always had a feeling one of Poldi or Santi would be off this year.
Sanogo has had a longer run of games up front compared to Pod and Walcott. I hate the fact he mentions these players as valid options when he knows he's never going to use them.
It's the same with Sanchez. Wenger lost faith in playing up front quickly from the looks of things, even though you can't blame the attack for conceding in less than 20 minutes.
