Jamie Vardy

It's disappointing that Pep categorically ruled out signing a striker. Although Kun is great, he can't do it all and Jesus seems a bit injury prone and not that prolific. A pacy striker like Vardy would be perfect as back up and to try and get through an obstinate bus parking team.
Vardy might be the worst possible signing if you’re looking for someone to break down a bus.
 
When playing against the bus you don’t even need a striker, 2 number 10’s are just as helpful

A target man would be useful - Giroud would be an ideal plan B switching to De Bruyne out wide right for his crossing ability.

Giroud isn't mobile enough. It would be like watching Bony playing in this side, even as a plan B option.

The discussion is how to penetrate parked buses; mobility is neither relevant or necessary.

Giroud’s touch and aerial ability offer something very different without simply being a big idiot to fire balls at.

There is a very good reason why Giroud has been benched. The rest of his game isn't good enough including his off the ball movement. On top of that Arsenal will want a lot of money.
