sharkyvilla Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Looked like Dembele had a good season in 2021/22, 21 goals and 4 assists in roughly 25 games worth of minutes. If Lacazette got brought in to take his role I can see why this season hasn't gone so well. He looks a unit and got 4 years on Ings, plus counts as home grown.

ChicagoVillan1983 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 There is no chance that we are selling Ings without another striker lined up (I am ignoring Hungry Like the Wolf). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wes Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 I personally think they're all in on targeting Jonathan David from Lille in the summer. For now I can see them looking at getting two versatile forwards/wingers who, for the remainder of the season, can deputise for Watkins (who is Emery's first choice like it or not), can rotate with Bailey in the role he's currently playing as the second forward, or can stretch the field horizontally by being comfortable playing "with his heels on the sideline". I would expect one of these to be a more seasoned veteran, and the other to be someone younger who Emery sees as more of a project he can work on. Alongside another central midfielder, I think three more signings this window are still to come now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJBOB Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 I’d have to laugh if we actually got David. Reminds me so much of Ollie. More skillful and two footed but just as hard working, can run the channels, hold it up and link play but no real conviction in front of goal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCJonah Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 I do not get the panic. Chances are Ollie stays fit for the rest of the season and Dhuran gets to play every so often. People are acting like we've just sold our only forward player. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the point that most people were making in response to some posts that "if we've been offered £15 million for Ings then we should sell him immediately" is that selling him without a plan to strengthen would not be a good idea. I assume that we do have a plan and will be making a signing pretty soon in which case this could be a very good deal. BUT we've assumed before that there was a plan and there hasn't been (or at least not a very good one!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who could we realistically from a rival that would be (relatively) decent value for money? Tobey, Mitrovic? Or would it be someone that has done it in the past but had struggled with injury or poor form? E.g. Martial, Bamford (yuk). 2 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
