๐ Just the way he is. I also think our squad, and manager, are very different from his experiences with Inter, Man City and Milan. For me, he'd be a cracking signing. It won't be boring! ๐

I suppose it's not that funny when the entire club is mismanaged from top to bottom and the criminal fascist in charge has decided to blame you for the collective failings of the team.
I'm still in favour of this, even though it'd probably be a disaster. Not very rational.
my head says no for the same reasons as others, but part of me says, what the hell, just go for it. groundhog season is boring, and super mario would def liven things up, for better or for worse.
He's basically Ash's Charizard.

Get Mario.
My preferences are Cavani-Mario-Benzema, in that order.
On his (our) day Balotelli would make us noticeably better then Giroud. Just a question if how often that it is.
He's a nutcase, less prolific than Giroud, extremely unreliable, tendency to be lazy and can single-handedly ruin the dressing room environment.
What are you basing the claim that he's less prolific than Giroud on?
he's never scored more than 20 goals in a league campaign. one could argue he's never been a starter anywhere apart from milan, but my gut tells me if he came here he wouldn't be more prolific than olly was this season because a) he's streaky as fuck b) him being streaky as fuck would lead to him getting dropped for large portions of the season.
Not a Wenger striker anyway.
Wenger would support him like no other I think. He always takes a long time to give up on players if they're struggling.
He's of an age where he might turn over a new leaf, mid-20s is when that happens for quite a new players.
How many players on the planet can score a goal like that one?
Then again, how many players on the planet have set off fireworks indoors?
As I said - it wouldn't be boring with Balotelli around. ๐

Since Giroud has been in England and even then you have to consider about a fourth or third of those goals for Milan must be penalties.
He's got one in two or thereabouts for Milan. His record is probably ahead of Giroud's even factoring in a few penalties.
Also you hate Giroud's lack of productivity, so you must really fucking hate Mario to say that ๐
At a very dysfunctional Milan team he has 26 goals in 42 league games. I don't think that is less prolific than Giroud. In fact, I know it isn't.
The guy's 23 years old - however long he has been around, his career at the top level is really only just beginning. Wenger would do great things with him, I'm sure of it. He's a master in improving the all round game of his players and even better at getting them to focus and dedicate themselves to being a top level footballer.
In the ideal world I don't think he's anyone's first choice, ultimately though it's about what we can make happen and he's among the best of those who may be available.
