He's a very good player, but he needs another high scoring season before I trust him as proper striker.

Surprised you rate him now Ricks. I remember you said he was a rubbish player, out of his depth before last season in the PL thread.

Still think he is very average though.

goon

He’s a more confident version of Chamakh.

He started scoring though! Goals are hard to ignore.

I still get impression he might just stop scoring as quickly as he started though.

goon

I'd be weary of his goal scoring, seems bit Giroudesque in that he has purple patches. He scored like 5 in his last 22 league games or something last year.

Was a comment about Everton's transfer business that they've looked to add capability and depth so provide him with better consistency of service.
He's still young enough to develop further.

We should steer clear on basis of his passport alone. Any English player from the academy is welcome to Arsenal but hasn't this window shown there's zero value with Brits in the market?

mentalvortex

Yeah. Everton would be looking for some ridiculous amount to sell DCL.

isak scored a beauty for Sweden against Spain. he always looks the part when I see him. shame about that increased release clause

We missed the best value on an English forward you are going to see for years when we didn't sign Abraham. He'll get loads of goals and assists in Italy and come back to the PL for a massive fee.

He was so good in the Euro's too even though he failed to score. I reckon most top clubs in Europe are on his case so it will be hard to lure him here.

Never thought you will like him. He is like Welbeck but more prolific

Really? The way qs has been raving about him for years I'm almost sure he's his father or uncle.

he will fill his boots in serie a most likely, but so do alot of ex-epl forwards, some of them geriatric. wouldn't ve surprised to see giroud be prolific there as well, like dzeko has been

He's nothing like Welbeck though, he's fit most of the time and scores goals. He isn't the silkiest player in the world but he hangs around the box and attacks the ball, has a knack of finding space too. In a team like ours that crosses constantly he'd do well.

QuincyAbeyie

If he does go to the PL for a massive fee it will be to Chelsea for the buyback clause they demanded.

Qwiss

Maybe. Or it could be to another PL club if Chelsea are happy with who they have at the time.

Could Sarr be a candidate for a conversion to CF?

When Isak fills out and becomes more clinical, oh boy. We need to get him before he explodes and becomes out of reach. He’s a complete CF in the making.

That's a good shout. He has the physical characteristics to play there and is probably better off as CF than out wide where he can't beat his fullback 1v1 for toffee.

Too expensive. Would prefer Adeyemi and keep in view how Toney will do this season.
