I've been looking at compilations of Isak & Vlahovic...and i ain't gonna lie the Swede looks so much better and passes the eye test with his technique.
@Rasmi
Why don't you rate this guy? Whenever I've seen him for Sweden he looks great. Great pace, dribbling, technique...he looks like a baller no doubt but everyone here is kinda worried if he will be able to handle the physicality of the prem.
So the stage is all yours our resident Swede...is this guy the real deal or Pepe 2.0?

He is 6’4 and has zero physical presence or areal ability. He is also not a very good finisher. He is lanky and awkward with decent feet and technique. But there is no way he is closer to the fees that are being talked about. I just don’t see how he will do well in the PL. As a club we have become obsessed with age and the fact that he is 22 is what appeals to people. Not every young player gets better and better from 22. A lot don’t actually
i think difference from Isak and Vlahovic is Vlahovic is more proven goal scorer and more advanced in his development Isak is still haven't put strong numbers he hot/cold regard of his his form and development spending too big in him is big risk at the moment imo.

That's another reason why I prefer Schick. He is the middle point between them and older, which I see better because we have so many young players that we need a little more of maturity in the team.

Well I think Isak is essentially a winger at heart. His strengths are pace, ball carrying, dribling and making space for a shot. He can't hold up the ball, isn't very clinical and his link up play is okay at best. Where as Vlahovic has all those qualities and is strong, can pick the ball up, turn his man and drive forward through the middle
None of that makes Isak a bad player but I think Vlahovic clearly looks a bit fit for us as a CF

A 6 ft 4 striker who can't hold his own upfront? He will get eaten alive in the prem then.
Its a shame because his other attributes would've worked well with our other attacking players. But still I think Arteta wants a focal point who are other players can play off...so makes more sense going with a bullish target man striker like Vlahovic.

Schick is definitely a target if we fail with Vlahovic and DCL proven to he'll cost too much

I like he has more technical ability than Vlahovic. I think Patrik would be my first choice over all of them. But I will let them go with the expensive option if they have the money for CF and CM. But if it's Vlahovic and no CM then I prefer something cheaper and CM.

Ideally we lose Laca and Auba and would bring in Vlahovic as our main target man/striker and then also bring in Isak as a pacey dribbling winger who can score (also a backup striker). Of course this won't happen but I think this would best fit what the team needs.
Picked up a nasty looking ankle injury. Probably rules him out as a January target.
Arsenal goes for Aleksander Isak. And the last days of the winter market are going to be hectic. The #realsociedad is quiet. And even if they sign him, we would be talking about one of the highest incomes in the history of football. I am convinced that Roberto Olabe has 1 plan.

Highest incomes in world football for his 4 goals in the Spanish league 
Perfect for the Laca role then.Highest incomes in world football for his 4 goals in the Spanish league
it's either Vlahovic or nothing this window don't think we'll pay 50M on Isak he not even worth that much

Arteta strikers job is not to score goals. 4 goals is 4 too many anywayHighest incomes in world football for his 4 goals in the Spanish league
I mean isn't his rc like 70ish million pounds?
Don't get me wrong, that is a lot of dough, but far from being the highest in the history of football...
I thought what he meant by income was that Isak's wages would be really high. -_-
He's literally referencing the athletic article from a few days ago and saying that he has no info on the following tweet.
Yet, @OnlyOne gets slaughtered when he starts a thread with an iffy link.
