Which striker do we need in the summer ?

[dostoy]

I cannot see us signing a really big name striker in the summer because they all seem to love their current clubs.

Lewandowski and Muller - loves Germany and Bayern Munich especially.

Higuain - loves Napoli.

Benzema - loves Madrid.

Cavani - when Zlatan leaves he will be the main central striker I would think.

Aubameyang - loves Dortmund, apparently wants to play for Real Madrid.

Ronaldo, Neymar, Suarez and Messi - lets not waste time.

The one I would say MIGHT happen is Romelu Lukaku from Everton.

He is young, used to English football and would want to improve his situation by moving to Arsenal.

It would take an offer of 35 to 40 million and maybe more.

It would take major balls from Wenger to do it especially as Everton are an English club and would NOT want to sell.

Any other suggestions ?

Lukaku, absolutely.

Maybe Lacazette but he's had a stinker this season.

Yarmolenko might be a good shout, as we need more goals outside the striker/Sanchez. Although he's a wide player. If could shift on Theo, he'd be a massive upgrade.

I'd like Lukaku too but he won't be coming here Kano and you know that.

Ighalo is the cheaper version, that's the kind of striker I think Wenger will be looking at.

I think I'd like someone from the PL, unless there is someone abroad genuinely special and wouldn't need a settling in period. Lukaku is the obvious one. I think I read he's approaching 50 career PL goals and he's not even 23, that's a potential record goalscorer there if he can explode at a top club. Would we drop 50-60m on him though? Ighalo would be a good left field alternative.

The one thing we can't afford to do is pussyfoot around though. We need to go knocking on the doors of these clubs, no one is going to fall into laps and I think that's the mistake we made last summer. Be a little aggressive, unsettle the players and put the selling club in a difficult position. God knows we've experienced it ourselves in the past, now we have the money turn the tables in our favour.

I agree, thats why I said it would take balls, which I'm not sure Wenger has.

Surely our new striker, and there has to be one, does not come from Watford.

Not really arsed what club they come from if they're scoring goals to be honest. Giroud's best PL tally is 16. Ighalo currently sits on 14 in his first year and with a pub team, there must be something to work with there.

From the league, I'd get Vardy or Lukaku

Outside the league, its Aubamayeng

Vardy is too old for Wenger and there is no chance of Aubameyang.

Wenger is at least semi-intelligent, he must realise we need an upgrade.

Please get Lukaku.

Nobody is asking anyone to pump money into this Club because Arsenal does not need 1p, 1c or 1 Rouble or whatever the fuck they use in Uzbekistan from anyone.

Just spend some of the fucking money generated from the mugs fans that have been shovelling money hand over fist into this extortion racket of a football club.

That's down to Kroenke and Wenger though, Usmanov has no say in that, I was only responding to NQ's point about Usmanov putting in his own money when he's got no control or say at all.
