Yeah, Lacazette has been banging them in in the French league, we'll see how it goes when he gets a taste of the PL opposition and their refs. Pre-season only, but on what I've seen of him in the last couple of weeks plus in the games I watched out for him last season, he looks second tier not top tier. Doesn't mean he's shit, but at 26, let's just say we don't have the next Henry on our hands. Couple that with Wenger's unique abilities and I think the guy is going to have a hard time. Maybe he's a quick study and maybe he can find a way to ignore Wenger. We'll have to wait and see.
But if we end up swapping Alexis for Lacazette, that will very much represent us getting the shitty end of the stick.
