No more messing around, and it's about time too.

We want, we need, a goal a game from him. That's what Wenger's paid all that money for.

did he add an extra bit
'We need those goals as Alexis won't be here to get them'

He didn't actually mention Alexis. He just pointedly remarked that as Zlatan had transferred his own France form to the Premier League, then #LacaNewSigning must aim to do that too.

Wenger's learning, imo.

Thierry turned 40 today. How depressing is that? :-(

No, He never said that about His strikers. Not even Ian Wright, not even Eduardo.

He always makes excuses for them, often before they've even kicked a ball for us. Infuriating, very; it's no good being soft with them. Call it the soft bigotry of lowered expectations.

He may have said stuff to Thierry privately, but He has never gone public like this before. Strikers are like fast bowlers really; just point them in the right direction and stand back and let them get on with it.

Sir Curtly is on the radio right now :cloud9:

But if your striker's a little bit shít, you probably need to manage expectations. You can't be telling Olivier Giroud he needs to score 30 a season - he'd swerve off the road, Jonathan. And the fans would shít themselves laughing.

Maybe this new fella is a different kettle of fish.

Olivier has been fantastic and he wasn't really that far away, potential-wise, when he first joined us, imo. If anything, his price tag didn't really help him and also gave his manager an excuse.

You're saying he's the reincarnation of Elvis Presley?

He's a bit skinny for that, isn't he?

Yes as we will be conceding at least a goal a game is last week is anything to go by :-D
