Akpom's apparently going to Hull on loan.

Podolski's gone and Campbell's off to Palermo or Sociedad.

So, that leave us Giroud as the only real striker and Alexis/Walcott/Welbeck as back up, but 2 of them are wingers.

So, maybe there's something in the works!

If Giroud is off form, I wouldn't be surprised if Theo goes to striker w Ox goes out wide

I actually want to see Ox out wide more than Theo anyway messenger!

Move Walcott centrally like he wants and give Alex game time.
I don't think people realise how dangerous he is, running at players.
He's quick, he's good with the ball, he's intelligent and he's bulkier than meets the eye.
Whereas dealing with Theo is all about the pace, to beat the Ox you've got to be faster than him and strong enough to compete!

Yeah Brow, surely something has to be planned!

D_ , totally agree.

I think Ox is an amazing player.
He will be worldclass in the next couple years if he gets more game time.

I think Theo will be first choice centre forward at the start of the season. And good luck to him, I would rather see him back to his best than us sign another striker. COYG!

Great to have both Walcott and the Ox to play wide right. We have Sanchez and Welbeck who play wide left. Yet only Giroud for the central role. Yes we can play either Walcott or Welbeck centrally, but I imagine a new central striker will be signed.
I am a tad suspicious of Welbeck's injury, which seems long for bone bruising.......

Hi All,

Not posted for a while but ALWAYS reading the posts!

Hearing reports that a bid for busquets has been officially lodged somewhere around £24mill and a breakthrough in the benzema saga. Supposedly a £40mill bid will be accepted. Is there any truth to this?

The busquets deal won't happen as barca won't sell a first team player until they can buy. And Benzema is one of those wait and see situations. I can see real selling just a game of cat and mouse atm

Eds can we have your thoughts on the above?

{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of a bid being made for Busquets by Arsenal, and I have explained over and over that Arsenal are interested in Benzema.}
