I don't believe he would cost 30m,more around the 15m mark given his contract and probable desire to leave.
However,the transfer would be a little shortsighted for many of the points you make but would he improve us over the next couple of seasons? yes,without doubt IMO,an improvement on both Dzeko and Mario.
I would however sooner have a younger,maybe hungrier,alternative,Falcao or Cavani would my preferences,subsequently on wages alone we would have much more room for further manoevure.
I think Arsene will rather run his contract down than sell him. I am absolutely certain he is going nowhere. We shouldn't want him, and if we did, we probably would not get him. Personally if I was Arsenal, I'd put his price at 30 million. If you want a histrically injury prone 29 yearold striker with half a year left on his contract for 30 million, come and get him.
Arsenal is looking to bolster its ranks this summer. They are almost set with the
kid from Cologne and are looking at adding Belhanda and Vertonghen to their ranks. They are quite close to challenging and I see no reason why they'd let their best go for any less than an exhorbitant amount.
I wouldn't.
