Think he has a very different mentality to Bale which is why the latter has very few good seasons in his career while Kane has sadly barely had a bad one since his breakthrough.

That is exactly what I would want from our #9. One with both the vision and execution of a pass, and the dead eye finisher in the box. He would be perfect if we could somehow swing it…

agree, sadly. the mush-mouthed one plays the 9.5 role annoyingly well. probably only benzema is better at it

Kane would have as few as Bale if he had been playing for Madrid, just my tuppence ha'penny anyway.
Bale doesn't give a fuck about football, he's very good at it but lacks the motivation to make the most of his talent. Whatever else about Harry Kane he's absolutely maximised his talent into his current level if not into trophies.
Yeah pretty much.
He is very motivated to play for Wales though. Rare breed
Turning up for the national team is easy, it's a couple of games every few months. Turning up every single day is another matter.
His last open play was 17 games ago. Fucking hell. Have we had a worst starting striker than this supposedly " big game " player?
It's sad as he seems like a great guy and always works really hard, but once we went under I just didn't see a way back in it since everything seemed to stop with him (not that plenty of other players didn't have terrible games as well).

He's easily our worst 1st choice striker I can remember. People hated Giroud but not only was he better for us, he's still better now.
It's definitely time to give Nketiah a run. I don't think he's anywhere near rounded enough to be the presence we need, but we're getting nothing from Lacazette and have to hope Nketiah's speed and pressing give us something to work from.
Absolute shite really, and the lack of a proper striker is the #1 problem that will cost us top 4. Absurd squad management again from the geniuses at Arsenal.
Swap the 'b' in the title for 'dr'.
This guy is fucking horrible. I don't know why the fuck are we still starting him when he put in performances like this week in week out. 4 goals in 25 games, 2 of which are penalties. Wtf.
Even a new joiner like Kulusevski has 3 goals in 10 as a winger. Worst striker in our club since the late 80s.
He really is and its sad cos I like Laca. He always does his best, doesn't hide, he's just past it. Deserves to go to a league where he can still compete.
January was a mess. We're gonna miss out on CL because of ego.
Simply has to be dropped.
Kaba Diawara level player these days
Hey at least Kaba hit the bar a few times!
True!
Worst starting striker ever.
Crazy of Arteta to think we could just start with Laca for the rest of the season because Vlahovic didn't come off. You live or die by those decisions.

As is our season currently, and as should Arteta & Edu if it continues to go down the shitter.
