To dagenham gunner, I think you've missed a striker with class since Henry, Van Persie was to inconsistent IMO I think you've missed that hero! I like giroud but he doesn't do enough, hoping you draw or win on Monday would be best for us lol

Hi Square,
Will have to agree in part mate.
Yes, Henry was, and still is, a legend and it will take a lot to replace him and his goals.

Agree with your assessment of RVP. Was at Arsenal for about 8 years, injured for a lot of the time and averaged 17 goals per season apart from his last season, when he stay injury free and scored about 36 goals, hence the move to OT.

The Olly Giroud issue is a sensitive issue on this site.
We all love him to bits, some more than others (Flybo) and he suits our style of play perfectly. He is a good target man, holds up the ball very well, has a great first touch for such a big bloke and links up very well with our attacking midfielders.
My main concern is he doesn't score enough goals. But, this is only his second season and he is getting better.
He will never be a Suarez or an Aguero but he is a different type of striker to them
Solution? I truly don't know mate but we do need a 2nd striker, somebody like Benzema, or IMO, Loic Remy.

Ye agree that first touch goal from grip us against spurs was special, I really like benzema someone like yilmaz or diego Costa would be great as well although I want costa to lol, of course I want to win the league and Suarez is making a good case for us but I just want us back in the big time, top four finish and I'd be made up
The perfect top four for me would be Liverpool arsenal city Everton, doubt it will end like that tho.

Square, I totally agree with your top 4 prediction but swap Liverpool and Arsenal around please mate (smiles)
