Don't know a great deal about him either but he seems to be technically sound and also capable of scoring a range of goals.
Good start to the summer if we can get him in the bag early.
Yep he's a miles better player than Giroud IMHO.
He's an established 2nd tier type player, like at say Mata or Hazard level, could turn into a World Class Player if developed properly, I.E. Top 5 in his position
I like him a lot from what I have seen of him, technically excellent, quite strong, quick, actually OK in the air too. Can play in a number of different attacking positions. His number are OK for a striker, could see him scoring 20+ if he has a storming season though.
In the current market he's most def a 20-25million pound player.
Would be very happy with this purchase.
Not so sure €30 mil is much of a good punt on a striker who's only managed 39 goals in 160+ games over 5 seasons.
That stat sounds more befitting of an ACM. Are you guys sure he's a striker?
Media over here, obviously a bit behind you guys but saying he is our absolute first choice but saying we may not be his as he prefers Juve hence the wait and see what Juve do period. . .
Another 'story' is Wenger's 'Im nit saying no, just no comment' regarding Rooney shows there may be more to it
One more Cesar is as good as done deal
Just stories so dont shoot the messenger
He's like a 2nd striker, out and out type. He's not a prolific scorer over there but he knows where the goal is, I reckon he'll score a fair few for us assuming he joins.
RVP's stats were similar to his at the same age.![]()

Wenget turned Adebayor into a 30-goal striker.
Jovetic should get 50 at least.
Seriously though, even if Wenger has lost his player development magic recently (although Nasri is the last special talent we bought), even a pub-teamer can get into healthy goal figures for us so someone as talented as Jovetic should start combing them in with regularity. He should be quite assisty too.
For a team like us, someone who links the midfield and attack effortlessly like RVC did and presumably Jovetic is being hauled in to do, is far more important than an out-and-out goalscorer. The fact that we've had players develop into goal machines on top of that has been a bonus. Hopefully the bonus is instant with Jovetic. Having second-season Giroud and Podolski more attuned to the League and Walcott being a more decisive player now should in theory mean there's not too much burden on him either, especially if he's playing alongside them rather than being the central figure.
