Pros:
-Suarez is proven in the Premiership and has played in a passing side before so he should fit in straight away.
-Suarez is at a good age. He is 26 so if we sign a a five-year contract with him, he'll be 31 by the end of it. We'll get the best years out of him.
-Suarez is a modern striker, he is very mobile and comfortable all around the last third of the pitch. He is also tactically flexible, being able to play up front on his own and with a strike partner.
-Suarez's nickname is El Pistolero, ours is Gunners. A match made in heaven?
Cons:
-Suarez is a very controversial character and always seems one step away from doing something unsavoury. He also has an uneasy relationship with the British media.
-Suarez will be banned for the first six league games, he'll only be available come October (an away game at West Brom). Before he's able to play in the league, we potentially have five non-league games (two CL qualifiers, two CL group games, and one League Cup game).
-Suarez's shots per goals record is 8.1, that is pretty poor. Here are his stats compared with Arsenal players' stats:
