Alexandre Lacazette

For me, Lacazette is at least as good a striker as Kane and Lukaku - he'll get as many as them next season, probably more.

The fact that I'm not jumping for joy at signing Lacazette is in line with what I think about the quality of those two, the quality of the Premier League in general and the fact that I'm still not over us having Henry, Bergkamp, Wright up front for us once upon a time. Mbappé belongs in that company, Lacazette, and indeed Kane and Lukaku, do not.

Kane scored 29 in 30 games last season, if he scores as many or more than that this will be a fantastic buy, regardless of his general quality or game. I very much doubt it though, the list of players who've reached those figures are very small. I'll be quite pleased if he scored over 20.

Tottenham also scored a shed load of goals, all of their forwards had great numbers. Not sure it'll be the same story this season or in the seasons ahead.

If Lacazette plays a full season up front for Arsenal, I'd be surpised if he didn't get 25 league goals.

How good he is against the best teams and against good defences, and what magic he can contribute aside from putting the ball in the back of the net, is where I think he falls down. But that's true of everyone not named Sanchez (Aguero is old and busted in my opinion) in this League.

even against the top teams (not counting the CL), we create enough chances.. it was just that we werent finishing enough.. if he can help with that, i'll be good with it (him).. dont love the fact that he's a shrimp, but can't have everything
