LAB 1,030 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Lavezzi would be a very good signing imo, but only if he's fine being second fiddle.Never a striker. Viper22 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stroey 2,525 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 (Porto) Juan Quintero to Arsenal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petre.ispirescu 4,928 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Good deal for Arsenal. I've seen Quintero at the U20 World Cup last year - he is technically sound, such a joy to watch. He is on the same page with James, bar the work-rate. Quintero is lazy as fuck, never helps his defence. The work rate and stamina are some aspects Wenger needs to work on if they manage to sign him.

RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Jay Rodriguez?He is not that good, doesn't he? Assuming we sold Torres, for a big game, if Costa injured, would you rather put Drogba or Jay Rodriguez? If the answer is Drogba, he is not a good option then. S*** if he is the only option out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S*** if he is the only option out there.But he is our first striker. So of course we prefer Costa. Jay is a strong striker who can be a soild #2 and would be affordable. Besides that there is no one.I don't understand people who say "if Costa gets injured" who do Bayern have if Lewandowski gets injured? Real Madrid? Very few teams have multiple world class strikers. It's hard to keep them both happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we're not preparing for that, and only hope for the best scenario, then we're not learning anything from the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now they play either of bale/CR as the false 9. All WC options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is also a bit old and relatively expensive. I don't think he would be a good signing.I do like this player myself, but he is not needed here.

I don't think he would be a good signing.I do like this player myself, but he is not needed here.I completely understand your train of thought, as a matter of fact those were my exact thoughts two months ago. He is essentially a poor man's Ronaldo, as he can do just about everything (bar heading) attacking wise and his pace is very good. But you're right, we do have Schurrle who is already close to Lavezzi's level (except for dribbling). It would be essentially an emergency signing, in case something goes awfully wrong.

Don't see the obsession with having two world class strikers in a one striker system.dude, we aspire to be the best team in the world and for that we need the best players in the world.In bayern, if lewa gets injured, they play muller, who is replaced by gotze /alcantara.In RM if benzema gets injured, we gets replaced by bale/CR or maybe james. If costa gets injured, we play torres/DD, a MASSIVE fall down. We have played schurrle as false 9 and it has simply not worked. If we play cesc as falsr9, I doubt it works as well it did in barca. But even if it does, he gets replaced by rambo. There is a difference in class there. zolayes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
