Not good either way, don't sell him and risk him not trying or getting stick from the fans or hold out for as much as they can before selling him.

He is not £90m player, far from it.

2 years of Wenger to come :D

On a positive note, Lacazette is always looking to move and score, he seems far more active than Giroud.

What's wrong with Sanchez?

Apart from being a greedy bugger.

Re: Season 2017/2018
 

typical Arsenal performance id say great going forward not good at back great game to start premier league season though

Re: Season 2017/2018
 

Nor are others sold this summer as the transfer market is utterly obscene IMO.

Giroud is what you call a lazy coaster who bigs himself up when he scores but when Arsenal need him he goes awol.

When you lack a commanding centre back and a midfield spine then the same weaknesses will exist sadly Dave.

Re: Season 2017/2018
 

Err we needed him yesterday and he scored the winner. He has scored a number of match winning goals for us.

Re: Season 2017/2018
 

And went missing when they needed him most missing many easy chances along the way in these crucial matches..

Re: Season 2017/2018
 

A bit like Liverpools defence just now. ;)

Re: Season 2017/2018
 

l agree totally Jim as you have known my thoughts on our defence for several seasons now and nowt has improved sadly.:(:td:

Re: Season 2017/2018
 

Defenders aren't required this season?

Re: Season 2017/2018
 

But without good defenders one wins nowt..

Re: Season 2017/2018
 

Two great neutral games to be fair thus far. Mo Salah had a decent game, his pace and overall movement is solid but his final product is pretty shocking, first game nerves maybe, he can only get better. Lacazette was fairly good for Arsenal too, as earlier, his movement is better than that of Giroud. I still like Giroud but it's about time Arsenal had more depth in the area. You know you can count on both for goals now.

A week ago, Gary Cahill was Chelsea's new leader, the step in for Terry, the man to lead Chelsea. He's led them to a 3-0 deficit before half time.

Re: Season 2017/2018
 

So much for the 'big six' truly awful defending from three of them so far.:shocked:

Great to see Rooney on the score sheet.:)

Re: Season 2017/2018
 

Cahill to me is one of the most over-rated English centre backs in the game.

Is it any surprise as they have had all summer to sort their defences out and they have done and learnt nothing as Sunday league teams could defend better then Premier league sides IMO.

Re: Season 2017/2018
 

It's just a case of being daft, he was being dispossessed and he's clumsily dove in on it.
