It’s not a hard decision you cash in tbh. Arsenal will be average for a few more years regardless of who’s upfront - it’s not as deep as we think.Yeah, it's such a dilemma with him. He's playing well, we finally have creativity behind him, think he has something like 13 goals from 21 starts, which is a very decent return by any stretch.
However, he has had some bad misses at crucial moments for us, and his contract is big, & he does lack pace & athleticism at times. Then there's also the temptation that Arteta has to shoehorn him & Auba in the same team at times which hasn't worked this season.
Then, there's the chance to get someone a bit more rounded like Edouard for a very decent fee, however he is unproven in a top league. We don't really know where Arteta sees Martinelli either. And we don't know what level of interest there actually is in Laca.
Not sure there is a right or wrong answer here.
Whoever comes into this club looks worse than they are and the results will not drastically change, just take the money.
If Lacazette helps us to Europa league finals he can definitely exit with his head held high and leave the club to its process or whatever.
