Rodrigo Palacio. The front man missing from the post Henry puzzle?



I did insist that Arsenal needed to recruit an out and out striker; and that Da Silva wasn't enough. He is a good goalscorer but he cannot lead the line that effectively from the front due to his size.


In order to utilise the three fantastic midfielders at Arsene's disposal (Silva, Cesc and Diaby) Arsenal's preferred formation will be either 4 3 3 or 4 5 1.The front man therefore will play a very important role at the top of the formation. And it seems that Wenger will go for the Argentinian Rodrigo Palacio of Boca Juniors.


He has a very good goals to games ratio of 0.5 or 39 goal in 79 games. And as you can see from the video clips he can score all type of goals: from long distance, inside the box, tap ins and headers too!


And he is at 25 not a typical Arsene signing as he is not a kid with potential (!) and is experienced enough to slot straight into the team. He will need of course time to get used to the Premiership.


Oh and he will, apparently, wear the No 14 shirt!


He will be, I hope, the front man missing from the post Henry puzzle.

in other news Arsenal boss George Graham is preparing a £1.3M bid to bring Chelsea striker Kerry Dixon to highbury. Graham feels the chelsea number 9 is the perfect foil for the mercurial Charlie Nicholas.

Seriously where have you been for the last week??

Hahaha perhaps he knows something we don't and it was Wenger's genius plan to get somebody to start 'fake' rumours just to have them dismissed when in fact he's after the player all along.


Or perhaps it was bollocks and you shouldn't write crap on your blog. :P

Oh...
"He has a very good goals to games ratio of 0.5 or 39 goal in 79 games. And as you can see from the video clips he can score all type of goals: from long distance, inside the box, tap ins and headers too!

Boy, you stoopid.

Ha Ha, you pratt! And you show more cluelessness by saying the preferred formation will be 451 or 433! We played 451 a few times against tough opposition in Europe when we only had one striker fit, and have we EVER played 433?...um no! 442 as always my friend, with RvP and Adeb leading the line while Eduardo settles.

ON THE CONTRARY I SEE THAT WE NEED AN EXTRA STRIKER, A SUPER STRIKER AS DAVID VILLA OR HUNTLEAR OR EVEN PALACIO COZ WE NEED A PLAYER TO REPLACE HENRY.R WE ABLE IN UR OPINION TU COMPETE LIVERPOOL OR MAN.UTD OR CJELSEA OR EVEN TOTTENHAM IN THE PREMIERSHIP? R WE ABLE TO COMPETE AGAIN LIVERPOOL,MAN.UTD,CHELSEA, BARCALONA,REAL MADRID,INTER,AC.MILAN IN THE CHAPIONS LEAGUE I WISH YES BUT UNFORTUNATELY THE TRUTH IS NO!!? THIS YEAR WE MUST WIN A TROPHEE,THIS YEAR MUST NOT BE AN EXCUSE YEAR ALL THE YOUTH PLAYERS IN ARSENAL HAVE TODAY THEIR EXPERIENCE....

Afif hoteit, have you heard yourself mate? Have a little faith in the team you "support".

Is the "Chapions League" for well-to-do gentlemen running about in tweed suits smoking pipes?
