December 11, 20223 yr Let him go far too early, but I guess that is stating the obvious! We should've snapped him up straight after Costa went, but I suppose it wouldn't have happened back then!
December 11, 20223 yr Considering the way we been playing, it's criminal we sold the only 1 guy who could capitalize on crosses, hold up the ball, and play others in. Let go good players is just as bad ( if not worse ) than sign bad players. Could we trade Lukaku for Giroud at the end of this season?

December 11, 20223 yr I don't agree we should have kept him, he was starting to struggle badly with the pace of the league and he wasn't happy with the lack of minutes. Ofcourse we shouldn't have replaced him with Lukaku but that's a totally different argument.

People seem to be forgetting we played AC Milan twice in the CL this season, & he didn't have a shot on target in both games. Happy he is in the Semis, and the record French goal scorer but he seems to have found his level at this stage in his career in Serie A. He really isn’t doing anything amazing stats wise; scored 11 league goals in 29 games last season. To put that in perspective, a 39yr old Zlatan scored 15 league goals a season earlier in 19 games.

These were also reasons we never should have signed him. His goal output has never been outrageous, it is the all round contribution that is key and the bit we miss.

I'm just longing for the time when a well-coiffed, happy-looking French-speaking striker was in our squad, and every time I see him score I'm reminded we got a bald, discontented French-speaking charlatan to take his place.
