I've not really seen enough of him to form a solid opinion. From the little I have seen is this guy strong enough to lead the line for us? Also slightly concerned that he couldn't get in the French Squad ahead of Gignac.Originally Posted by Özim
Despite the above he looked a real talent a couple of seasons ago.
I'm quite concerned I couldn't get in the French squad ahead of Gignac.

Schalke spending £20m on Embolo. Jesus wept.
Deschamps made some odd decisions, left out the guy from Seville Gameiro who is scoring for fun too and dropped Griezmann in the 2nd game, I don't the fact he's not in the French squad reflects on his ability.
He scores goals and that's what we need to be honest.
Yeah fair play. I'm not against us signing Lacazette, he's pacey and has a good scoring record. TBH, I'm just desperate for us to sign a striker. I pray Wenger doesn't screw up this window, our rivals are all starting to make moves in the market, I hope we do too.

NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.
Is he directly competing with Gignac for a place in the squad though though? I'd say he's up against Griezmann and Martial for that pacey / mobile goal-scorer role. Gignac looks more like some emergency cover for Giroud as a target-man after Benzema was removed as an option...
Not sure why the Vardy thread was closed, this place is hardly brimming with active threads. I'm quite shocked that he didn't jump at joining us. It's a sign of the times that Leicester can match the wages we offered him. Overall the Premier League is going to be amazingly competitive with every club having so much dosh. Next season will be amazing to watch.
Yeah fair point, he's not...but you would have thought they would have made room for him in the squad, technically they have two Centre Forwards in the squad, Giroud and Gignac, you could argue Martial is seen as a Centre Forward, though they do tend to stick him out wide when he does get a game.
I suppose it basically boils down to how Deschamps likes to have them play, he seems to favour a "target" man through the middle with mobile players either side of them.
