He has scored 9 goals in total in his 6 Premier League seasons ! Marcos Alonso scored 6 last season. Injury problems. Not a striker. Came off the bench lots. That explains that. Wasn't starting week in week out like Alonso did last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all he still managed to play those 129 games and most importantly, he's still an offensive player, 9 goals is indefensible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

communicate 2,703 Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Am I the only one who is confused why are excited about this one ? Yes he can be a good option for rwb but there is no way Arsenal is going to sell him to us unless for ridiculous money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the wes 7,212 Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Chelsea will this week step up their interest in signing Arsenal midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, according to reports in the Sunday Express. However, the Premier League champions can expect a battle from rivals Manchester City for the England international's signature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ox is far from the worst option out there, a useful squad player who will allow us to sign 3 more non-HG players. Not every player we sign can be Morata level.

zekinjo 449 Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Now is the time for Sandro, if that's possible. We stopped all our business after Bakayoko deal so we can concentrate on ST which was the most important position at the time for us considering Diego situation and having only one in Michy. After signing up Morata now we can concentrate on Alex Sandro. Maybe we'll first sell Matic this week and then push for Sandro immediately. Conte said he hopes this week someone will arrive while they're in Singapore. To me personally that sounds like someone he wants, someone important. That's why I believe he wasn't thinking about possibly Ox arrival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polo7 3,496 Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Cant believe how underrated Ox is on these forums. Not only does he have pace, decent crossing and strength, he can also play in a number of different positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went into this window hoping for three clear upgrades, two depth signings and one or two players that were bought for mostly their potential. If the following is our window (and I still hold hope for Sandro), it would be close enough: Morata - perhaps not a clear upgrade on Costa as a pure striker, but a clear upgrade on the striker situation (better fit both in terms of competence and personality). Bakayoko - Imo better than Matic Alex Sandro - Clear upgrade on Alonso Rudiger - Width that could in time become an improvement Ox - Width that could in time become an improvement Caballero - Width Richardinho (w/e) - Bought for his potential Really, really good window if it happens.
