Honestly atm I’d keep him and evaluate the striker situation next summer, or if we do sell him give Balogun and Martinelli his minutes, not a guy like Tammy.
The thing is, he has one year left. Shouldnt we sell him and get money out of it then a replacement ? Although ive always defended the guy, I can see why it would be a good move. Given that we have a replacement of course.Honestly atm I’d keep him and evaluate the striker situation next summer, or if we do sell him give Balogun and Martinelli his minutes, not a guy like Tammy.
Im a big Nice fan, following their every game. Dolberg should not be there, he is way to good. But he is a true 9, if the team behind him cant give him chances he cant do sh*t.
Plus they poorly managed his integration.
Anyway Nice bought Stengs & Kluivert notably to make Dolberg stay since they both were at Ajax. So that he feels better there. So i dont see him coming to Arsenal even though id' love to see him there.
Honestly, I don't know how he's got on at Nice, but he showed elite potential at Ajax. Lots of quality goals, chips, great movement in the box, good control over the ball, unlike Abraham who seems to have springs in his shoes with half his first touches.
Think he’s here for one more year. Decent player, shame really, gets about 13 goals a season. With other strikers that could be prolific as well eg Auba, Martinelli, Pepe, Saka, together with a top manager and a midfield that was quick and exciting in transition, I’d have backed us for top 4 scoring levels next year.I want it to happen as well (I want all the players I like to leave) but he’s obviously leaving on a free.
Yeah and on top of that he was actually our top goalscorer considering the poverty attack of last season.I've never understood when people say "with one less striker and exactly the same people otherwise we will do better than last year"...
We’ve got to face it. Any team that played top 4 level football and drops to mid table, their individual players are tarred with the same brush - not good enough. Particularly when the football was as a poor as it was last season.We spent 55m euros to get him we need at least get some money from him would be very poor losing him for free
I dont get the incentive for him to move. I just dont see him moving to Atletico. He wont get more money or more playing time. Logic thing would be to see out his dealFor me he’s a valuable member of the squad, I don’t see the desperation to out him. He’s a squaddy and seems happy with that role.
Like @Macho said though, he’s not going anywhere now anyway, will leave on a free next summer - get a nice sign on fee and a 3 year contract somewhere.
How exactly is that enough for this season?? Unless we bring in another forward or AM it weakens us, doesn't matter whether Lacazette is good enough or not.
Can't rely on injury prone Martinelli and unproven kid Balogun.
He's a much cheaper alternative for them than Griezmann. Plenty of incentive for him as well, joining the champions of Spain is a big step up from Artetaball.I dont get the incentive for him to move.

you can do better with same players next year because young players improve and some players settle. Saka, ESR and partey will be better. But Abraham is not a guy you spend 40 million on to make a squad player. He will be main striker and he is not better than auba or even laca. He is a limited player just like Auba, but lesser of a goal scorer. Laca is comfortbly better footballerI've never understood when people say "with one less striker and exactly the same people otherwise we will do better than last year"...
He will have to take less money and instead he can be free next season and sign one last big contract with someone who will get him on free. Its not like he is not playing football nowHe's a much cheaper alternative for them than Griezmann. Plenty of incentive for him as well, joining the champions of Spain is a big step up from Artetaball.
This is only applies they are offering a BIG contract. Which I doubt.He's a much cheaper alternative for them than Griezmann. Plenty of incentive for him as well, joining the champions of Spain is a big step up from Artetaball.
Next summer, Laca gets a sign on fee, probably a few million, and multiple clubs from all over the world offering him a deal, as he’s free.
He’s in a very very strong position.
Pogba ain’t moving though. I’m pretty sure he will see out his contract. But pogba and varane have international careers as well as being younger. Laca is at the stage where players protect what they have and think if life after footballTake your point but it’s not as cut and dried as that. Look at this summer. Pogba likely moving with one year left on his contract, Varane as well. Mbappe would probably move if Real stumped up the cash for PSG as well.

Laca on free will get PL move if he scores between 10-14 league goals which he will. Going to new country at his age would be dumb. Specially a club he will play less than in ArsenalPogba and Varane are at the stage of their careers where this will be their last big move, just like Lacazette. The motivations for them to see out their contracts and move on a free are just as great, if not greater than they’d be for Lacazette.
These are uncertain times. Players can’t be sure the money is going to be there next season if it’s offered to them now. They’re also one injury away from the whole thing falling to pieces.
If that’s true why did Willian get such a lavish offer at 32, £10m a year for three years? There are clearly crazy clubs that’ll make deals like that.No serious club like Atletico will be in for him after a year of warming the bench while losing precious hairline.
Believing a player will automatically get millions because he's signing on a free is such a myth. Only the top ones get lavish offers.
