Alexandre Lacazette (Out)

[SingmeasongSong]

This is beyond depressing - make or break of my believe on our management, you just CANNOT be ripped off with such crap players.

That's bullying of the highest order, no knock, no big **** Raul or anything of that matter.

 

[Rex Stone]

Nice buzzing if it’s Romero. He’ll add steel to our defence, should’ve beaten Paulo Costa imo.

 

[HairSprayGooners]

Is Romero any good? Played 30 matches in serie A last season.

We won't take douglas after getting Willian. Doesnt make sense.

Romero and 20-30M would be fine.

 

[Rex Stone]

Is Romero any good?

Yeah just lost out to Costa last year and there’s always talk about his physique and what he takes but I think people are just jealous.

 

[Fewtch]

Juve should be able to cough up at least 30m. Just take it or leave it imo

 

[MikelHadADream]

Absolutely no chance we take any of the players mentioned. This is the Justin Kluivert story all over again.

 

[Gunners1616]

What are we gonna do with 30M extra ?

If Lacazette leaves we will need a serious replacement and good strikers in this market cost a fortune.

Unless Juve comes with some big numbers (a.k.a 45M+) there is no upsight in this potential deal.

We already need a CB, a CM and at least one AM... That's a lot in one window. We never gonna find a decent striker quickly.

Cant be worse than what we already have even if hes a 4th or 5th option.

Edouard is 25-30m. Ings would cost maybe 40m. Plenty of options out there.

 

[MiiTek]

Douglas Costa is injury prone player...No needed him!

 

[HairSprayGooners]

If Costa wasn't so injury prone you probably take him. The man is an assist machine.

 

[BobP]

Hate Italian clubs so much.

Cheap ****s.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

30m or juve can f**k off with swaps

 

[HairSprayGooners]

Considering our CB situation I think you probably take Romero plus cash and send him on loan for a season.

If Mustafi and Sokratis haven't gone by next summer their contracts run out anyway, as does Luiz' contract. If Chambers and Holding are sold you're suddenly left with Mari, Saliba, Mavropanos and maybe Gabriel. Not sure four is enough for a full season.

 

[Axel9090]

If rather swap Lacazette for someone whos going to be a really solid asset, so someone like Partey for example. Willian, Saka, Auba and Martinelli can play left wing, so I dont really think we should be using Lacazette to get Costa.

Dont really think Juve are gonna loosen the purse strings in this eindow, so they can take their awful swap offers elsewhere.

Costa’s fitness is incredible though, absolutely jacked but he’s probably doping like Romero is.

Don’t call him the eraser for nothing, like to see both Romero and Costa go at it again tbh.

 

[Trilly]

If you’re talking about the stat some Lacazette fan account tweeted in the last few days then that was a stat only for the games Arteta has been in charge. Auba was on the left for all those games without Lacazette, we don’t know how he’d perform down the middle with creative players behind him. I think it’s inevitable he plays down the middle if Laca goes so he’d more likely than not increase his goal output. Also the sample size is tiny. It must only be a handful of games where they haven’t started together under Arteta.

Fair enoughhh.

Bottom line is, if Laca goes and Auba moves to CF then we need some serious creativity/ball retention on the LW and in CM or things will not look good.

 

[Trilly]

Some people here want Douglas Costa though. He averages 3 goals a year.

Who?

You're so annoying.:rofl:

How often are a Costa and Romero going to be playing for the same team and then linked with us?

Once in a lifetime stuff.
