Wouldn’t mind him leaving and doing good elsewhere, our fan base needs to wake up.

someone like sebastian haller you mean? Big lump we can cross to who cant play footballIf we want to play laca as a 9 holding up play etc then we would be better off replacing him with a targetman who can hold up play but also head the ball.
A good targetman would really help us out IMO and I don’t mean just hoof it up there but a good number 9 can come deep hold defenders off and find players making forward runs and obviously head in crosses.

I'd take 25m plus for him to be honest.
We need to get used to life without him. If that means Auba, Martinelli and Nketiah/Balogun - cool.
I doubt Atletico will be in for him though as Suarez is on fire.
Think we should keep for the rest of the season in any case. Only players capable of playing as our 9 currently and I doubt we'd sign a striker in January. Sell him in the summer and bring in Edouard.
who are the player with similar characteristics as two of the best nr 9s in the world that is available for us in January?Thinking more someone with qualities similar to Kane or Haaland. I said a targetman than can hold up play and bring others in with passes. Obv height would be useful at times as well. I specified not someone to lump it up to

Hmm...I wish supporters are realistic on transfer values. When the season ends, Laca would have turned 30 years old. In addition, he can not score more than 20 goals in PL per season. We will be fortunate if he gets to even 10.
He has always been a patchy player too. Which club besides a Chinese one would even offer 25 million for him? He certainly is also not gonna get a pay raise when he leaves either.
If He was early to mid 20s, sure...maybe. But he is at the end of his career. Lets hope he can continue his last 3 goalscoring performances....thats more valuable.
Nothing indicates those players are better than lacazette. These are players who play in far inferior leagues against much lower quality of playersned ab
The names mentioned above like edourd, dembele, Daka I think have some of those qualities and would serve us well as a 9 though we would have to wait till the season ends to get one . Not on the level of
Kane obviously but I think they could offer us a good younger option up front.
Didn't we get around 20m for an older Giroud? It's a sellers market and only in England is 29 deemed to be old. 25m would be very realistic.
we got 18 million for giroud from chelsea who needed solid backup of a proven striker who would be backup. It was also before covid. so I dont see a team throwing 25 million on laca, and he has to want to go there as well. Only wolves is gonna spend big on a striker and I doubt he would want to go there and they will go through jorge Mendes to get one of his strikersDidn't we get around 20m for an older Giroud?
