Arsenal has to lose “Machine” for goal “for £ 0

Arsenal Insured Passage to the quarterfinals Champions League For the second consecutive season this week, but far from Europe, it would be difficult to describe a campaign as anything else but disappointment.
Mikel Arteta side wanted to finally finish their waiting on Premier league The title at the third moment of the question of this year, but as things stand, they sit 15 points from Liverpool by Liverpool.
Furthermore, instead of being exchanged for their bad form in homemade cups in the last seasons, the Topnica crashed from Fa cup In the third round and the sound of them beat Newcastle United in League Cup Semifinals.
There are two basic, somewhat related reasons why things have gone wrong in this term: injuries and lack of central center.
Both problems could have been solved in a winter portable window, but not, and to make matters worse, the artist Arteta released nothing a few years ago she won recently Harry Kaneof all people.
Why are Arsenal desperate for the attacker
So, there are three reasons why Arsenal is in such a desperate need for a new striker, with the most obvious injuries at the moment.
Two options for the attacker, Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus, are not in action for the rest of the campaign, and the latter will not be able to do until next year.
However, even when they are able, no one can rely on a consistent goal scorer, which is the second reason why the team needs a new number nine.
For example, the Brazilian internationist found his back Net on seven occasions In 27 appearances this season, while the German was marginally better, Achieving 15 goals in 34 games.
This disadvantage of the clinical top top leads us to the third reason why the North Londonci finds themselves in their current trouble: a serious lack of investment in the front line.
According to figures from athleticsEver since he took over the work in December 2019, Artea spent around £ 299.2 million on veterans and goalkeepers, £ 275.4 million on midfielders and £ 140 million on front, including £ 65m spent on Havertz.
On top of that he is not spending enough on the attackers, he also let out a lot of departure, including the attacker who surpassed the entire Arsenal team last season and compared himself to Kane this year.
Former Arsenal star compared to Kane
When it comes to former Arsenal attackers who have progressed since leaving in recent years, Alexandre Lacazette, who left for nothing 2022.It is sure to be close to the top of that list.
Before we look at how he went through last season and how he’s going this year, it’s worth examining this comparison with Kane and where he comes from.
AND Comparison stems from FBREFWhat compares players in similar positions in the first five leagues in Europe, the Champions League and the Europa League then creates a list of the top ten of the most sexy players for each, and in this case concluded that the Englishman is most notable for Lyon’s star.

The best way to see where this comparison comes is to look at the basic metrics where the couple are ranked, including, but not limiting, progressively noses and passing, goals by shooting and shooting on the target, moves to the penalty area, key passes, fights won and more, all on 90.
On top of that she compared herself with probably the best striker in world football, the star of veterans Lyon has been in a fine goalkeeper in recent years, finding the back Net on 22 occasions in 35 matches Last season.
This year the 33-year-old star has been reached 12 goals and handed two assists In 32 games in all competitions, but in Ligue 1 he especially scored nine goals and two assists in 22 appearances, a total of 1469 minutes.
Contrary to that Havertz scored a hit nine goals and secured three assists In 21 league performances.
However, he did this in 1842 minutes of football, which means French “goal -strual”, as he called Former teammate SokratisHe was clinically forward from German.
Ultimately, at the time, Arsenal probably did the right thing in letting Lacazette go for free. However, with the back and knowledge that they have not been able to adequately invest in the attack since then, we believe that Arththa would not bother him to bring him back to the team.
