Podolski as central striker.

Post by oboe123 »

We signed Podolski as a replacement tor RVP.Wenger should play him down the middle instead of Gerviniho.He can finish and is much calmer than Gerviniho in front of goal.

In Cologne He often plays as CF or behind the strikers. In Munich all games aß CF.
94 goals in 230 matches...
So why not?

I will be glad when Gerviniho and Chamakh both go away in January for the African nations cup.We might go and spend some money on a world class striker.

I never considered that.
Always thought of him as a replacement for Arshavin, who will soon depart.
Plays wide left often for Germany, but cuts in.

33 goals in 88 league games for Cologne is good, but not RvP like stats.

Giroud was Chamakh's replacement.

We have not yet signed a replacement for RvP.

Anybody of Moroccan descent who has kicked a football before must be embarrassed that Chamakh will get the nod ahead of them.

We could always change formation and put Pod in the No.10 role behind Giroud. AW's known for his tactical flexibility!
