It's a shame Tierney is off the market as he would be ideal for our system.

I'm sort of rooting for Arsenal so Emery gets a stay of execution, what a shame.

We should put in a cheeky bid for one of their strikers.

surely Emery is getting the SACK soon

I would actually choose Martineli if we were going to pick one.

[Special Juan 27,101]

This result masks nothing, absolute disgrace they are.

Pepe benched, get a bid in for PEA

[Jase 43,479]

If only Standard Liege had won at Vitoria! That would have put Arsenal's Europa League hopes in serious jeopardy!

We need someone more experienced to complement Abraham. We don't need more young players! 

[Special Juan 27,101]

No matter if they qualified that was one horrific performance.

Empty seats, Keown is going off it in the studio.

yes Aubameyang turns 31 this summer, and Lacazette turns 30 right at the end of next season

Either one would be fine on a short team contract, like 2-3 years etc. We need experienced striker(s)!

Werner is old enough, he is 24 and 25 next season and has a shit tonne of experience already

Tbf I was thinking more idealistic more than logistic, from what I've seen and heard of him he's got obscene potential that if realised could make Arsenal a serious threat by himself, ala Brendan's Liverpool and Suarez.

I'm sort of set with who I personally want as our new striker signing (out of realistic options) and that's Morelos, then sign a more experienced winger for balanced sake.

next season will be Werner's EIGHTH full time season at top flight footie

Still not older than 24/25.

Not that I won't take Werner, mind.

Morelos is a head case an plays in a farmer league

He's improved a lot on his discipline this season (think only 2 yellows all season) and is delievering in Europe aswell.

May not be the best league (understatement) but he's outperforming Dembele's efforts at Celtic who's now being courted by top clubs.

Every Rangers fan I've either asked or read an opinion online about him are convinced he's destined for the top.

I feel with Tammy's emergence we've been given enough scope to take more of a left field gamble in the forward department, compared to left back and possibly centre back where there is serious pressure to get our next signing right which means a lot of our budget may need to go there.

Lacazette, who turns 30 at the end of next season, is only in his ninth full time top flight season 

is 2 extra seasons really worth 5 years older?

plus IF we get Werner (odds are low) he only costs 25m quid

IF Arse sold us Lacazette they will ask for £65m or more, probably £70m

but no way they sell him

especially to us

I really have no clear preference after Werner atm in terms of actually available and doable

Dybala maybe, but he is not a pure striker

he would be a crazy weapon under Lamps though

Sarri is a fucking fool if he cannot fit him in at Juve

Lautaro Martínez would be a good move (he is winning me over) but Inter will not sell

'Cavani (old!) on a 2 year would work maybe, I think he has two good years left in him, hell maybe 3

Mousa Demebele? maybe, maybe not

Håland is really young, so not in veteran mould

Belotti? dice role, but he is scoring for fun again

Vardy would be great for 2 years, but he will not come here
