Our search for a striker has ended today. If it even begun that is.
Giroud has just scored a hat trick v pubteanam.
Pleased he scored a hat trick of course but Wenger will use this as a reason not to strengthen.
Roll on next summer

Didn't he score 2 against the last pub team as well?
Yeah Wenger will probably point to how many goals he's scored etc and we'll have to go through another season of him bottling the key chances when we need a goal.
defiantly....not.....wumming
Wenger won't literally come out and say "we aren't buying a striker cos Giroud scored against pub teams"
It'll be more likely to be something like "we have tried to bring in a striker but in Giroud we have someone who's been in good form in preseason and we trust him"
Basically means the same thing
Not it isn't it's frustration at a clueless manager who just won't spend some f*cking money on what the team needs for a change, we know him pretty well by now.
Go to the Wenger slaughterhouse.
When we last won the league in 2004. How many world class players did we have?. Jens Sol, paddy, Pires, Bergy, Henry. That's at least 6 some would say as many as 8. That seems to be the minimum you need to overcome the deficit of Wenger the clueless as your manager. A
Those arguing crap can sometimes come good are just on a wind-up. It's plain to see for any rationale supporter, that we have come down a long way in terms of squad depth and so have no hope of winning anything as the teams we are up against orestrengthening not diluting. The last year when we had RVP, we had lost Cesc our only other class player. It's Wenger on the gamble again, hoping to make 4th with a squad of journeymen. It's all bull
I almost feel as if he's become obsessed with achieving the top 4 target on a minimum/if not net spend in our favour.
Let's be honest, if he was to spend upwards of 50million Net I can't for one minute believe the board wouldn't expect some kind of improvement in terms of performance and the teams standing.
We're in a vicous circle and I have said on countless times...the REAL problem here is Arsene IMHO.
Ivan has more or less put Arsene to task with his preaching of the funds we have available, it's absolutely on Arsene's head to spend it and if he refuses to then he will be the one facing the questions if we fall short this season.
He's got nowhere to hide this time, the money is there.
