Lucas Pérez: Is he back again?

[blaze_of_glory]

Welcome, Lucas.

Don't miss your first chance, as I'm afraid this board will see that it forever overshadows any subsequent successes you may have.

Just watched the Arsène interview on Lucas and it's very clear that he's been brought in to play centrally. It's also not the first interview where Arsène talks about him primarily as a CF.

Better than Vardy,
On a par with Messi,
Mom's spaghetti,
No need for Mahrez,
Bites harder than Suarez,
Our boy Lucas Perez,
Watermelon grapes banana,
Mucho gracias Deportivo La Coruna.

His twitter handle is LP10official. So, did he get the number 10 shirt?


10 should have gone to Özil, and 9 to LP.

 

[Chami]

Can see Wenger's logic here. With his view about South American striker that have a hard man mentality. This guy never gives up, didn't have an easy career and will fight for every game

Since the introduction of the three new mods I see more and more censorship. Now the Hitler comments were over the top, but I would appreciate some sort of "edited by moderator" message, in the post or otherwise, like before. I know I have immunity but for others it would be helpful, to better understand the limits.

We got Perez
Lucas Perez
I just don't think you understand
He's having a party
He's better than Vardy
We've got Lucas Perez!

 

[stajlarN]

I have a feeling that he will be a monster. How good will it feel to have a fast and skilful striker? really good

 

[Shadow Moses]

He should avoid the no9 shirts as it's cursed.

 

[berric]

By the things I've seen, Sky Sports would give him a low score on penalty taking.

Pitiful.

 

[Mrs Bergkamp]

Saw his interview on the website. He seems very professional and focused-no bantz about him. Almost has that cold eyed killer look. Let's hope he has a awesome season.

 

[rich 1990]

Giroud should be.

Finishing - 8
Dribbling - 2
Crossing - 0
Pace - 4
Heading - 14

Pace 4? Reported.

 

[cannonade]

Pace 4? Reported.

That's a -4 I believe.

 

[Vinci]

That's a -4 I believe.

So that means he only runs backwards?

Oh, that's right actually. He backs into central defenders and 1 out of 10 times he manages to flick it into no man's land.

 

[arshy9]

Wicked!
Let's hope Perez is a hit. Unbelievable to think that we finally have someone who can control a football and move with it in a straight path.

Tbf I remember watching MOTD with Chamakh's first game. And even when he scored he still missed a boat load of chances, could tell he was gonna be AIDS.

 

[KAB]

Agreed with the chant. He's style was very similar to Vardy at some points plus few more advantages and skills compared to Vardy. It's clear that the manager was looking for this type of striker for this season

 

[cannonade]

Oh, that's right actually. He backs into central defenders and 1 out of 10 times he manages to flick it into no man's land.

I think it means he's faster back peddling than running forwards.

Lucas Perez - has a bit of a "Luis Saurez" ring to it. I like
