    He has been granted a work permit before being sent on loan again to Greece . That is not the real issue .

    If you are expecting Wenger to buy a striker in a mould of Diego Costa , I am afraid you might be disappointed again . He will only buy a back up to Giroud . A player like Remy , Ba , Cisse or Bony can be considered . His main priority would be to get an attacking midfielder or a winger who can score goals .Someone like Julian Draxler , Antoine Griezmann etc
    Wenger still rate Giroud as his no 1 striker even though many would disagree . He is the man in charge and will decide .

    To be honest i don't rate Diego Costa so i won't lose any sleep if he goes to Chelsea, to be honest anyone in the mould of a Remy or Bony for me is an massive improvement on Giroud. I don't expect anyone with a world class reputation to be honest, i just want someone with pace and a proven goalscoring record.

    Wenger will definitely buy a back up striker as he saw the consequences when Giroud was exhausted . But for those who would like to see the back of Giroud , it may be too early .
    On the positive note , the other striker will put pressure on olivier not to be complacent and improve his game if he still wants to keep his place as no 1 striker .

    We have cited Giroud being tired quite frequently but a lot of those times we were saying it, I just saw a limited player rather than one who was tired. Perhaps I'm being harsh on him.

    Bony would be an improvement on Giroud as his all round game is much better, he is even more powerful than Giroud and is much better in the air.
    The intermittently maligned Demba Ba would actually get 20 league goals or close to it given 38 league games in a top side which imo is why Wenger spent the dying hours of last summer trying to sign him. Unfortunately for us he was dealing with a club who's manager wouldn't sell him small pox or AIDS never mind an asset from his own club. One of the most naive pursuits in Wenger's career.

    There are a small handful of strikers in my honest view that despite not being world class, would actually get 20 league goals given enough games. Sturridge is the most obvious of them but he isn't the ONLY one..... which is why it makes it even more of a crying shame we went into the season with Giroud, Sanoogo and Bendtner.


    On Joe Campbell, he has certainly matured but I don't actually know that he offers us that Chamberlain or Gnabry won't apart from a few more South American tricks... For it to be worthwhile he has to likely to be of more or at least equal use to the Ox or Gnabry, both of whom can play in 2/3 positions.
