'Kind of business we should be doing', 'he'd struggle in England': Global Arsenal community react to Edouard links

Reddit

DittoDat: "That's a really good price and I can see him fitting well into the team and performing!"

JoyceyBanachek: "I'm a Celtic and Arsenal fan and he's great for us but I suspect he'd struggle in England. He requires too many touches and too much time. He produces moments of absolute quality but he's not got the speed of thought or movement to dominate in faster-paced leagues."

GarryMc123: "I actually think the opposite. When he has more space to run in behind it brings out his best, he takes too many touches at times but often because teams usually sit so deep against us. He has his weaknesses but got the potential to make it at that level."

cheescakegod: "Selling Nketiah and Laca should generate some cash with some left over. Know some people don't like Laca but he has ability and it will be tough for Edouard to fill his shoes."

Afolabi Adeleye: "Scoring goals in the Scottish league does not guarantee that you will be good in the Premier League. A good striker will cost nothing less than 50 million."

Dan Bulford: "Need to give Balogun a chance. Which could save us millions."

wayne: "Hopefully we get him without selling Lacazette, I'd sell Aubameyang if anybody."

Fan forums

BizzySignal, Online Arsenal: "Edouard looks like an upgrade on what Giroud was in every way and what we wanted Laca to be. He’s got good link-up play, he’s strong, he’s tall, he’s fast, has good passing range and is clinical in front of goal. I think his attributes would definitely suit the Premier League."

Callum, Gooners World: "This is the kind of business we should be doing so naturally Leicester will sign him instead."

Trilly, ArsenalMania: "If we sign him he becomes our backup striker/plan B option. This also fuels my fears that Arteta has no intention of giving up on Auba on the wing, he's just going to keep building the system until it works. He basically takes Laca's place in the squad if we sign him but then the same problems remain concerning Martinelli's development. Is third-choice striker/wing option enough minutes for him?"
