So Giroud is actually our only real striker, sweet.

Something strange going on at the club. This is a no way to threat the fans who pay highest ticket prizes in the league.
Country: England
I always thought Welbz offered quite a bit when he played, seemed dangerous, more so than Theo.

I don't quite understand it either. Some people are just blowing off steam from the transfer window I think.
exactly - would make sense to see what Campbell can do but odds are he doesnt see many minutes behind Giroud and Walcott and if he does see minutes it will be in the cup and probably out wide whilst Walcott gets minutes up top

League is very weak
Theo is a nothing player at CF, absolute ghost, so yeah

Freudian slip?
Welbeck was unlucky in that he got his run at CF at a time when the team was in disarray. I would've liked to have seen him play in a settled team alongside Özil, Alexis, Cazorla, Ramsey etc.

Hardly, Welbeck has a fan base on here, including me.
My hope was that he would bench Giroud.

Bollocks. There's a vocal minority that hate Welbeck, but the rest rate him at least as a squad player.
Country: England
He did score such a nice hat-trick vs Gala tbf
Country: Iceland
Yeah I think Welbeck def have top 10 largest fan base from Arsenal fans.
1. Sanchez
2. Koscielny
3. Özil
4. Coquelin
5. Wilshere
6. Giroud
7. Welbeck
8. Cech
9. Gabriel
10. Monreal
Hell, I even think Welbeck can get on top 10 biggest United fans base. Of players still playing the game.

Does this keep Theo upfront? Who plays on the right? It annoys me more that we are now a player short than the fact that we didn't sign a striker.

What's not to understand?! Regardless of whether you think Welbeck is the English equivalent of Henry, or you think he's a marginal improvement on Emile Heskey, he provides depth. If Giroud gets a knock, a serious knock that puts him out for a couple months, who do we turn to? Feo? Don't make me laugh, who else? We have no depth, and that's why people are a bit p1ssed off, myself included...
But as I said to a friend the other day, I'd be tempted to put Alexis up top flanked by Ox and Feo, Özil in the hole with Rambo and Coquelin behind him (Yes, I'd drop Santi)

He did crash the site when we signed him to...

Nightmare realized he's out for months. Most probably back in December.

You were saying his time was up at the height of the Benzema rumours. No shame in it mate, many were tempted by the ITK serpent's cunning words.
I stood by Welbz my shepherd. I'll follow him to whatever end. A sheep in Wele's clothing he is not.

I don't disagree with you, it's just if you thought of Welbeck as second/third choice striker, signing Cavani is not particular solution to that problem. It's a solution, but I'm just not sure if those two decisions have much to do with each other.
