Alexandre Lacazette Breaks Arsenal Scoring Record
By Samuel,
Arsenal’s new signing, Alexandre Lacazette, has made an amazing start to the season, scoring in every home game so far this term, (at the time of posting). Lacazette has been ruthless in front of goal recently, and is even getting involved in flowing moves and passes sequences, as he showed against Brighton.
Even after such a poor start to the league season, Arsenal are still fighting in and around the Europa League places, hoping for a change in fortunes as they look for a place in the top four like always, even though this year may be the toughest of all. It seems that after selling Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain to Liverpool, the team has changed dramatically, and results have no doubt improved, with the Gunners going from 12th to 5th, and an unbeaten run to boot. How long will this run continue for? All we can do is get strapped into our seats and see what will happen in the league.
Will the French striker be worth the whopping £52million paid for him in the summer, (another record for the team). Is he the Thierry Henry legend that Arsenal were looking for? As well as this, rumour has it that Lacazette is persuading his French teammate, Antoine Griezmann, to join the Gunners also. However, this move is currently unlikely, with there being no underlying reason for Greizmann to leave a successful Athletico Madrid team. Despite this, Wenger seems committed to Greizmann. Will £65 million be accepted?
