Well if you believe the recent transfer news, our focus has switched from a striker to a midfielder. I don’t even think Brentford want him to leave in Jan because their two other strikers are going to be at Afcon.
That’s good. My theory is that Arsenal were never really in for a striker and always looked at their midfield when reflecting on a solution for our attacking problem this season. We have changed 2/3rds of our midfield (Xhaka gone, Partey injured) and are not able to recreate the fluidity needed in our transitions.
We probably need a physical 8 with good passing range, I have to say I have no idea who is available that would fit this. Douglas Luiz? No way Aston Villa let him go in January…
Yeah midfielder seems to be the initial need, which is the right play I think. Just hope we look at other striker options in the summer.
