Antoine Griezmann

Not sure about the hard on for Griezmann from an Arsenal perspective.

Are people aware that he's at his most effective playing behind a striker (i.e. Özil's position) and that bringing him in and shunting either him or Özil wide is to blunt the effectiveness of one or the other. He's also been having a bit a rough time in La Liga the last few games, hasn't scored for 10 or so.

I rate him very highly, but if Arsenal were to spank 60/70 million on a player, I think there are other targets that match the team better.

We could play a diamond and rotate with playing wingers. I think Ox, Iwobi and Theo could play striker as well. But I don't think we're buying Griezmann. Hopefully our attention should an attacking mf or winger and a central midfielder.

He will cost more 100 million. I can see only United getting him tbh.

Unfortunately, they have no room for a new attacker. :lol::lol::lol::lol:

We could get Griezmann but we'd have to pay a Pogba-esque fee. He plays on the right, Özil CAM and Sanchez through the middle. Welbeck, Theo, Ox, Iwobi and Perez can fight over the vacant spot on the left although i'd be tempted to sell Ox and loan another.

This transfer is so unlikely though.

Not really worth paying that much for him if the plan is to play him on the right, don't you think?

Personally I'd rather spend half of what Griezmann would cost on Reus and trust Arsène to take him up a level. 120 million or so should be more than enough to get us Alaba and Reus.

If you're gonna spend big on a player from Dortmund, you want Dembele - not Reus.

Hell Suarez went for 60 and I doubt Aguero would fetch more than 70.

Reus? No thank you unless he can sort out his injuries.

We'll never get Griezmann, unfortunately. What ever his market value is, even if we can afford it, it will be matched by other clubs that will blow us away when it comes down to wages. We can't compete with United, City, Chelsea etc when they'll offer £250K+ a week.
