We ain’t gonna get top 4 with Laca. So why would we with a similar level to Laca? Auba is proven scorer in his career. Morata is unproven all his career. We have 1 goal in 5 games and really struggling upfront
Jesus christ. Auba can't play the lone forward role and his legs have gone. What don't you chaps get? This isn't playing FIFA.

Neither can morata and he can’t score for sh1t. Auba is a superior player than morata. A bigger better team with far better manager in juve believes so as well.
Funny how some people think he is gonna come in and resolve the goalscoring problem we clearly have. Give this guy the rest 17 games we have left and he will probably score 2 goals. 3 if he gets lucky. He has been piss poor everywhere and now suddenly would be ”good enough for 6 months”. Pffff.

Not to mention how much better we played as a team with this passenger dropped

When he 'failed' in the prem he scored 1 in 3. But you know best. Eddie Nketiah will win us 4th.

Eddie nketiah is leaving on free and has refused a new deal. No one is saying that. The fact that we are willing to let him go on free and refuse to sell him shows once again how poorly we are run. No sane person would say morata is better than auba.

Auba last 4 seasons in 1/2 in the pl. 114 games 58 goals. 1/2 is a lot better than 1/3. Morata in his career has more than 12 league goals once in his career

Yeah 16 goals in 47 prem games doesn’t sound too good in my opinion. But hey if that’s the standard you wanna set for a striker playing for Arsenal then maybe we do deserve everything this fella would bring us. Cheers to that!

Morata was starting striker for the Chelsea team that missed on the top 4. Only time they done it in recent times.

You just know some of our fans will try to spin this like crazy and argue why he is good and didn’t flop in the pl

They've already started it, it's crazy I thought they'd draw the line here but some people would defend us signing Adam Johnson.

What's the point bringing up Auba's past record? We all know he was a great player in his day. That day is over. When a player whose game is based on blistering pace and timing of his runs starts to lose a few yards he's in big trouble. That's what has happened to Auba hence he been terrible this season and could clearly be seen declining badly during the last too. Auba was one dementional but great at it. With his legs gone and not being able to play with his back to goal that means there's only one spot in the team for him. On the left of the 3 supporting the forward. Martineli plays that role now and is clearly miles better than current Auba. Likewise ESR who is pushing for that place too.

I can see why Arsenal Fan TV is so popular. Our fans here don't even seem to understand the basics of how the team plays and what the players strengths are....

Offensively our attack is basically built around a lone forward who drops deep and plays with his back to goal linking things up. His main job is to get the best out of the strongest part of our squad. The 3 beind who are full of running and energy, Saka, Odin, Martineli/ESR axis.

The lone forwards job is to hold it up and get these lads on their bike with over lapping runs. Likewise with Tierney over lapping. That's our basic attack.

Why can't the idiots understand this? Do they actually watch us play or do they see all our games on teletext? Maybe they're just very young like 12 or something and think because Auba scored 50 for them in FIFA this season that he'll do the same for Arsenal. Once again just to be utterly clear. Auba can not play the lone forward role with his back to goal.


It's a bit like this scene when you're trying to explain it to them. They just don't get it though. What can you do?

Morata can play that role and on top of that has a 1 in 3 scoring ratio in the prem. And these clowns are rubbishing that form. :clap:Total clowns. Just for the record. We paid £50m for Laca plus £180'000 a week and his goal ratio is 1 in 3. So he's cost us £10m per season plus wages. Morata doesn't look bad business to me for a £5m loan fee. he's in his prime and knows the league. Laca can not play every game for 90 mins. That 5m will look cheap if he gets us top 4. We will not get top 4 relying on Eddie and a shot Auba.

Is this really the right time for the Artetasexuals to be rude? I think they should wait until we beat a very poor team again.

Nketiah isn't the answer but neither is Morata. He flopped in the PL. Missed sitters in the Euros. He's just not a very good player.
Scoring 1 in 3 isn't a flop. Bergkamp had a 1 in 4 ratio ffs. Was he a flop? It was more of a case that Chelsea paid over the odds for a young up and coming talent. But that didn't matter anyway because Chelsea made their money back on him.

FFS he has 50 caps and 23 goals for one of the best international teams ever.
