the more i think about this the more it makes sense.

great partnership with Aguero
greeny has already managed and him got some very good performances from him in the past
good attitude
he's argentinian
still young
cheapish

yes please

Can someone bring up his shooting stats. I always thought of him as a very clinical striker who takes his chances. Something our strikers lack last season.

Only worry on my mind is his injury record. I recall he had a back injury that kept him out for a long time. Back injuries are usually hard to recover completely.

Last Season(Goals/Shots on Target/Total Shots):

Messi: 75/133/254.
Ronaldo: 62/190/435.

Cheers for that. I had forgotten to check this thread with all the excitement.
 
Remember when people were saying we should go for Higuain because he was a similar price to Negredo and so forth?

Well, we paid £16million + £4million future addons for Negredo. £20million deal.

Napoli are close to agreeing a deal with Real for Higuain worth £32million + £2.5million future addons. £34.5million deal.
 
If Higuain goes to Napoli and Suarez heads off to Madrid, it looks like Tottenham and Arsenal will most likely fight it out for Soldado.

He seems to be the only decent striker left that is probably available.

Why dont Arsenal just pull the finger out and sign some decent players!? Thank fuck i'm not an Arsenal fan, must be so frustrating

What's the best Arsenal forum to have a lurk on? Never seems to be much going on in the ones I've tried.
