We're in desperate need of a striker, Soton look like they've got problems. Ricky Lambert???

He did well for England and can play the same role as Giroud (he is also a brilliant penalty taker and good at free-kicks). He's streets ahead of the Fat Dane, as well as the other names mooted (Jelavic, Berbatov etc).

At 31 I know he'd only be a short-term solution, but I'd quite like to win the League in the short-term.

I don't think so, Lambert doesn't have the technical ability to play our style of football, I would take Berbatov as a short term solution ahead of Lambert every time.

Don't you just love the wording , "The website claims the Gunners will pay €10 million to take the France under-21 striker off the hands of the Ligue 2 side" .........makes it sound like we are doing them a favour ffs :roll: Anybody still believe that wenker is on a one mission to keep the French football economy healthy ? :rubchin:

Another day goes by in which the club proves that they don't care about winning the title. If Wenger thinks a striker who has scored nine league goals in 21 games is good enough to win Arsenal the title, then he is more deluded than I thought.

So that's it. Our January transfer business is done. A striker whom we need is a nobody from French Ligue 2. Well done Wenger. You have never failed to amaze me.
