Alexandre Lacazette: Laca the Net

[GBGooner]

Now for those of us who go to games, or have a season ticket 'ahem', and those of us in block 6 'ahem' we need a song for the Laca man!!

 

[Bergkamp120]

Who knew it would take us signing a mobile striker for me to post on here for the first time after almost a decade of lurking.

Welcome Lacazette.

Absolutely buzzing!

Welcome.

Tsamina mina eh eh

Gooner gooner eh eh
Laca laca zette zette

You are onto something

 

[Trilly]

Imagine thinking there's a better front three in England;

All bias aside that is a CL level front three. Just need the rest to catch up.

Wow. I've pretty much ignored his thread for the last month since I'm not very keen on him. Not sure how to feel about this. Hope he proves me wrong.

Same. Not overwhelmed by this signing. I pray he proves me wrong.

My bad. I meant 30 goals in his first season!

if he scores 30 league goals he erases Giroud, Walcott, Vela, Welbeck, Eduardo and some more from my memory. Maybe not Giroud.

> 30 League goals in his first season, and he starts getting into Bendtner territory. scary proposition.

 

[Kingslayer]

Is he a good penalty taker?

Sh*te.

 

[Kingslayer]

Lyon confirm the fee is 53M euros 46.4M pounds.

Sing it:

Squad cost is rising
@Makingtrax is terrified!

 

[Trilly]

Sometimes I look at him and think there's no reason why he won't score 20+ league goals for us.

On the other hand that's quite optimistic. Can't wait to see him play for us and evaluate.

 

[Likemusic]

The transfer should've cost half the amount of what we've paid.
Lacazette is nothing more than a younger Defoe, great player, but far from world class.

 

[Likemusic]

If Lacazette could add some extra dimension to his game, I will consider him as a world class player.
Building on his current abilities, it would be great if he can either: learn a few tricks, or train himself to become half as strong as Drogba.

Good luck finding a striker that's scored more than a 100 goals in the last 3 seasons for 25 million.

According to @hydrofluoric acid, £395m and we win the league. He's proved it. End of story.

In a French league

In a French league

Do you think Lyon are gonna see the French league as inferior to the PL and hence sell at a lower price? Of course not.

You should stick to music.

The price should only reflect the player's quality regardless of how they perform in the league.
If you put morata in the Chinese league he would've score 50 plus goals. Given that Messi also score 50 plus goals in the spainish league, should they cost the same?

 

[HollandGooner]

With the addition of Lacazette we need to keep Sanchez at all costs and add some players while we also need to sell some deadwood.

What kind of argument is that? Based on your logic we shouldn't buy anyone from outside Premier League, because we won't know if they'll perform? Lacazette is entering his prime, and has proved for four consecutive seasons that he is a goal scoring machine. Morata, Lukaku and Belotti are going for minimum £70m. I think £50m(+) is a great price, and I'm sure that he will deliever the goods. Imagine the passes from Alexis, Özil and Xhaka. With his conversion rate, he will score goals.

If that were true we would never have ended up with Henry, Pires, Vieira, Anelka, Petit in the first place.
