Jovic on loan from Madrid would be a good option at this time imo.
IMO he's in a select group of rare quality finisher's, they can be the difference between winning silverware as we found out last season. Arteta has been recruiting and consolidating existing talent shrewdly as has Lampard. Both could be big threats to us this season.Aubameyang is going to be Arsenal's Ozil Mark II.
Busted a gut at the back of last season when he needed a new contract, at 31 gets a crazy 300k a week deal and later this season will go MIA.
He's a great player on his day, but that's a hell of a contract to offer a 31 year old who up to the end of last season had even Arsenal fans questioning him.IMO he's in a select group of rare quality finisher's, they can be the difference between winning silverware as we found out last season.

That quality doesn't come cheap, it's so rare. We are struggling to find another...He's a great player on his day, but that's a hell of a contract to offer a 31 year old who up to the end of last season had even Arsenal fans questioning him.
True, but Arsenal have previous of offering contracts to the wrong players and yet let players that have done them proud walk for free.That quality doesn't come cheap, it's so rare. We are struggling to find another...
Aguero our for 2 months ?????
weren't we hoping he would be back for the champions league final if we made it ???
surely we are working on a striker now even if it’s a loan ?
You can't mitigate against injury and given we've got, what, two weeks to go I can't see how we'd get someone even half capable of filling Aguero s boots.Aguero our for 2 months ?????

I suppose Sterling can play centrally if needed. It's still very strange that there's not been any serious links to strikers for some time. Not sure what the plan is here.

Why not?No striker worth his salt is going to come here knowing full well he is third choice. Unless we are going to dig up some free transfer and throw him on the bench.
We simply cannot bring in another striker whilst Aguero is here. Current injury or not.
There is a shortage of world class strikers out there, even shorter list of ones who would make a move.
You just decided to ignore all of the goals he did score then?I think Sterling should be the last player tasked to tap in chances. Keep him as a creator on the wing and avoid another embarrassment.

Would still need a place in the 17 squad places.Why not?
Aguero's contract is up at the end of the season, and he has a serious knee injury at 32.
Any top young striker would jump at that opportunity at a club like ours.
We need to get rid of the deadwood , Otto, Zinchenko, etc, even loan them out, the market is picking up quickly, lots of action today.Would still need a place in the 17 squad places.
I cant see any strikers out there who would join as we are and that's probably the exact feedback Txiki has got.Why not?
