Dusan Vlahovic | Signed for Juventus

[richards30]

I'd say we should buy Vlahovic if he is available in January as Haaland very likely won't be. We let it ride and wait until summer- Vlahovic will get scooped up and there's no guarantee Haalands sitting there waiting for us. I don't want 7-0 thumpings of bottom tier clubs obscure the fact that we really arent better off long term or even for the rest of the current campaigns with zero pure strikers. To me Vlahovic is slightly under the radar whilst Haaland is touted as the next Superman and will require Superman wages and finance to acquire whilst Vlahovic would require much less and has the tools minus the hype to do just as good a job while allowing us more cash to make other acquisitions. Both are gambles as the transition to the premier league for either of them will require a learning curve.

We certainly need one of them imo and if we don’t go for Vlahovic in January then we will have been told that Haaland is ours in the summer!

I’ve never been this confident in the Haaland front. Having said this, I don’t think a club like Arsenal can afford Vlahovic in January

Don't think we've that strong an interest in him, if Jan comes and goes with no striker, I wouldn't take it as an indication on Haaland.

Agreed, unless they sell their now ex-captain ...... but, why would Vlahovic consider going to the Arse if he has any ambition?

I understand your point and I dont think we are signing Haaland however, you can guarantee we will know for sure his position before we move on and if we sign Vlahovic its because Haaland is off the table.

However, I dont really agree with your point about battering teams like Leeds masking any sort of downfall in this team. We have already beat Chelsea, West Ham and the dippers had to pull magic out of a hat to get a draw against us.

Vlahovic hasn't performed in the CL or for barely longer than 12mths so Haaland even at his age is more proven.

I don't think we'll sign anyone in January

Apart from Lingard and Martial…..and send them out on loan to our sister club in Antarctica. That’ll teach the fuckers.
