    He's a striker, at Arsenal it means he should play on the wing.

    I don't get it, for me he's clearly most suited to play up front in a goalpoacher role, don't think he has the game to play on the wing and think we're wasting his talent there.

    If you want a winger buy one, don't buy a striker.

    He's very slow and his build up play isn't very good.

    He's worth a shot though as Giroud isn't setting the world alight.

    He the best finisher of the 3, imo. Could be a real threat as a goal poacher in and around that 18 yard area. But then, our manager never seems to be able to see the obvious, so no chance of Poldi proving my theory.

    sad but true!

    but if the BS about us now actually going for zaha this may give us an option for him to play left and free poldi for the central role at times

    Yeah dream on this is another kiddie corner project Wenger likes so much, he'll sign him and play him about 5 minutes until halfway through next season. When he does it'll be in some alien position that means even if he is any good he'll lose confidence and form and turn out to be rubbish.

    Of all the striking options we have up front- Giroud, Walcott, Bendtner, Arshavin, Chamakh- this guy is head and shoulders above the rest. Clinical striker. If this team could create chances, then having Podolski up front would make us very dangerous indeed. So much so, that we wouldn't be missing the c*nt who decided to go up to Salford.

    It's a surprise that he hasn't started moaning about not playing in his favoured position (well, yet, anyway)
