Lucas Perez - 212 apps in 8 years, 63 goals. Hmm sounds more like Shola. So can anyone explain the hype? Is that Arsene signed him for Arsenal??
Late bloomer.

Reasons for thinking Lucas Perez might be a useful signing:How so? 24 goals in the last 3 seasons - still about 8 goals a season! SHOLA alert!

Reasons for thinking Lucas Perez might be a useful signing:
NumberOne: Performed decently last season (read somewhere that he was directly invloved in a goal every 75 minutes). Most Arsenal fans approved of him. 17 goals and 8 assists during the 2015/16 La Liga season with Deportivo.
NumberTwo: We currently have Mitro.
Reasons for wanting to keep Haidara:
NumberOne:![]()

So other than a one off season, your main reasons are Mitro (who did just as well in the PL) and Haidara........ well looks like no reasons then!
Speaking about his options, Benitez said: “We more or less have the group in place. We have a few players with little knocks and we have to assess them and decide what we do.
“But we can’t change too much and must work with what we have.”

Think he's referring to the spurs game, don't see him starting anyone we sign this week or next
Only if he can play up front!.....and we can bring back Cathro now, freakin' sweet!

There's hope for everyone. If not one but two Clubs could be even remotely said to be interested in Rivierre then maybe I'm not too old to get my boots back out the cupboard. By the way Jim, have you got any dubbin left?
Perhaps, though Merino could start, along with Murphy.Sure, but did anyone expect to get to the first game of the PL season with the same team that played Barnsley.....we'll have swapped Gouff for Ritchie (he didn't start that day) and will likely be Clark/Lejeune in CB instead of Hayden/Mbemba, with Hayden replacing Colback in midfield. Gayle will start, not Mitro, but it's an eleven players from all but one of the same personnel. Regardless of the added squad players, that's a poor situation.
Could have said that of a lot of players over the years, and we won't be payng those wages + addons, which I fathom will be big-timeDunno why you're not in for Iheanacho for £20m that's about as sure thing as Mike Ashley's gonna get for a quick buck.
He'll go next summer for £40m+

Perez has looked good in the Premier League every time he has played if we're to believe Arsenal fans opinions over raw stats (although an assist or goal every 75minutes isn't bad at all). Mitro has not.So other than a one off season, your main reasons are Mitro (who did just as well in the PL) and Haidara........ well looks like no reasons then!
