Seriously hope he takes the Premier League by storm and lands the Golden Boot next year so Sky and Andy Gray will have to say good things about Wenger's ability to spot a gem.
I really hope we sicken a lot of the doubters and doom mongers this year as the media always stick the boot in us!!! WE are THE Arsenal
I hope he does well, but I feel we may be expecting too much, too soon from this guy. He is undoubtedly talented, but can he continue his form in the Premier League where many similar players of his nature have failed? Again, we need to give him time...personally dont think he will be a starter for a few months at least.
With the No9 shirt you could see it in 2 ways firstly we havn't had a good No9 since Anelka so will Edurado be the next great No 9 and before Anelka, Alan Smith. Or after players such as Jeffers, Reyes Baptista is he just going to be another one of them.

All the signs are saying he will be a good number 9, mind you i probs said that about Jeffers and Baps
I reckon it will take him the first quarter of the season to get settled, then his performances will improve. I would be happy with double figures. Hope he goes well, not just for us, but for him aswell.
He is what we have been lacking under Arsene an out and out finisher and dare i say it a fox in the box.If he could only finish a quarter of the chances we missed last season he can score 15 plus goals.Good luck to him.
