As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
Could there be a more typical Arsenal signing? Young, cheap, French/African, 2nd Division, injury problems. Geezer was about to quit and become a postie until Wenger waved a bunch of notes under his nose!
At least he's a big lad at 6'3", strong and quick, and has a decent scoring record. Makes a change from all the usual midget kids Wenger likes to pile up.
Who knows, Yaya could be a Benteke type. From the videos I've seen of him he looks to have similar attributes.

yes he's black,thats where the similarities end.long live our new gervinho
But to be honest the guy isn't too bad, he got 10 goals from 9 starts for Auxerre. He played 908 minutes, getting a goal every 90 minutes. That's Cristiano Ronaldo numbers right there!
He's a punt, low cost, low risk & should be treated as such. Now get Higuain & Fellaini rather than Remy and I just might have some hope about the future direction of our club.
