I noticed Giroud pretty much snub Lacazette after he'd been heavily involved in the build up to Olivier's goal. Hmmmm, Giroud seems to be coming at this situation with a bad attitude. I just hope it's all smoke.

Lacazette impressed me with his all round play. The guy seems to be much more than just a goal scorer. I noticed some smart team play and versatility.

Nope! He is a striker. Top scorer for all junior categories since he joined from Chelsea. I hope he grows a bit more, he will get stronger and faster. I want to see him grow taller.

I mean, he plays LIKE a typical skilled, goal-shy, Ghanaian midfielder.
Goal-shy is actually the farthest word to describe Nketiah with. The young man is full of goals. He's been unlucky to hit the bar twice in 2 matches.
hoping I am wrong. Good movements, lots of skills, but also lots of ajasco.

Had 2 opportunities to slot in Laca, he did not, but Laca in similar position slotted him in.

Hopefully it is just pre season abd nothing more.

Actually, there is nothing there. Off the pitch they are friends. Giroud has been the one helping Laca settle in and Laca has made this known, thanking him.

I put that down to on pitch selfishness and rustiness. Laca wants to fit in, so he will go out of his way and be nice, Giroud does not need to be nice. When he is in, there will be no need for such niceties.

I think it might be a good idea to sell Giroud. I didn't like the body language on the field. Didn't accept Lacazette attempt to congratulate him on his goal. Also didn't want to pass the ball to Lacazatte. I think Giroud is a good backup. But he could also be a toxic figure in the locker room.

Hmm nothing wrong with having three strikers ..Is there ? I think ist Lucas we should sell .. But realistically we will get more money for Giroud.

Laca
Giroud
Welbeck
Lucas

Like I said here, Sanchez has demanded to arsenal to sell him. he has told them on multiple occasions. Yet, some busybody here was questioning me. Anyway, hope you have now heard it from Sanchez himself, today.

Well I guess Sanchez has pulled a Van Persia on Arsenal and basically given them the finger ..... why they didn't extend this man after a wonderful first season into a five year contract at top money will never cease to amaze me at This Penny wise, pound foolish Mickey Mouse outfit :curse:

Yet another reason why I don't think Arsenal can win the big trophies with Wenger as coach.

And one wonders why Arsenal players are mentality soft.
