After those comments reading some German fans saying him and Fjortoft are seen as a bit of a joke in Germany when it comes to transfer news.

Well Fjortoft mentioned Leverkusen were interested in light off Matthaus's comments

It was Fjørtoft who mentioned Leverkusen, so can't imagine why?

I think they are talking about him generally

Wenger had better sign a top forward now or im gonna be majorly pissed.

It feels like too often in the past i-dont-know-how-many years we've missed opportunites like this one. We do fine in every other area of the pitch but im starting to doubt Wenger's vision of our strikeforce. Obviously hope he shuts me up this summer.

How can not signing a talented kid make you 'majorly pissed'? Drmic or not - he was never going to be the answer to our striker woes anyway.

That's not really what i said. I will be majorly pissed because of years of not signing a single striker that excites me.

But anyway, i dont subscribe to the idea that we need a world renowned, proven striker. I don't watch/read many Ferguson interviews but i did hear him say something once that i liked "give a young man a chance and he will surprise you" . Or something like that.

Potential to be one of those that Wenger will come out and say in future "oh we could have signed him."

We can't very well be signing every talented player though, can we? Barkley looks a top talent, but I can't for the life of me see where he would fit in here. How about Zaha? Should we sign him too? How about all the talented players we have had over the years who didn't go on to stardom? Truth is, it is very difficult to predict how a player will turn out. From what I have seen of Drmic, he doesn't look like a special talent either. If we are looking for a talented youngster in Germany who can be had, and has that 'wow' factor, then we should look to buy Firmino. Now there is a player who looks special! Despite that, it is difficult to say for certain how good he will become.

Personally, I was never sold on Drmic. Giroud is adequate back up along with Sanogo IMO. We need a proper class player to start for us next season, and Drmic is not that player IMO.

You have a point, but to me there are some players that are pretty obvious to be able to go up to the top of their game. I am not saying it is Drmic though, but we needed a striker, there ain't many available in the market and if we don't sign a single striker then we can come back here and moan.

Wenger probably thinks we have Sanogo and Akpom as young striker and can't fit him in. Fair enough in that sense if we signs a top striker.
